    The current administration may be trying to manufacture consent for a military operation, but cartel violence in Mexico has been an issue for decades. This has included the assassination of Mexican politicians.

        It isn’t a contradiction but clarification. Your response implies a binary truth where only one statement can be correct. I’m noting that both statements can be correct at the same time.

        Before you try to think I’m going to argue otherwise, cartel violence doesn’t justify an American military response.

          You cannot read. I’m literally endorsing a blend of the situations. Whatever. We see the same thing with different words. Take care.
