Okay, who wants to take bets as to who will win?
Side 1: Americans - Military power, border security slightly less durable than wet paper.
Side 2: Mexican government - Currently in a losing war with drug cartels.
Side 3: Mexican drug cartels - Powerful enough to take on Mexico, but lacks actual military; may get butts handed to them in a true war.
Side 4: Cuba - Not involved, doesn't want to be involved, will probably be dragged in kicking and screaming.
Lets get the UN involved, the we have UN Peacekeepers on the US-Mexican Borders keeping both sides in their respective countries.
Genius!

Ammunition manufacturers are the only winners here.
They fired two shots at Border Patrol while on a drug interdiction mission. Which was probably by accident. You have a very very loose definition of war.

Given the War On Drugs and the War On Terror, I would say his definition meshes well with that of the U.S. government.

It's just like that documentary, Red Dawn.
PS You know who freakin' loves military helicopters?
The Russians!
Coincidence? I think not!

I'm sorry, but until it kills more 18-year-olds and uses up more ordnance than the Korean Police Action, it's not a war...
I realize this disqualifies almost every war in human history prior to the Napoleonic Wars, but don't worry! We'll just the amend history books (they're used to it) to refer to the Trojan 'Disagreement', the Punic 'Border Disputes', the Hundred Years' 'Tussle', and the Revolutionary 'Squabble'.
Don't forget the Misunderstanding of 1812, the Spanish American Debate, and the French and Indian Tiff.

If I recall correctly the USA are in a quite similar position. At least they are continuing to fail hard in their "War on drugs" that's been going on for ages now.

Well, the U.S. has already lost the War on Terror, so the fact they're still fighting the War on Drugs is a surprising success.
