Hold on... ... ... yep - I just checked. It was in his book, 'Great Wars and Great Leaders: A Libertarian Rebuttal'. <br /><br />I learned a great deal about Mexico from another book, 'Santa Anna of Mexico', by Will Fowler. Very informative, both politically and historically.Brutushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06885083535036422093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-17855728676627738982016-08-19T08:02:16.600-07:002016-08-19T08:02:16.600-07:00RE: Mexico

The PRI of course claims that The Revolution has never ended . . .<br />I suggest you read "The Life and Times of Pancho Villa" by Friederich Katz [Stanford University - 1998].<br />It was much more that a landless peasant revolution.<br />Moreover I find the first 130 or so pages relevant w/ what the US is experiencing [revolutionary sentiment gaining traction now that the economic picture is undeniably bad]. This triggered by a wealthy landowner coming out of nowhere to capture popular sentiment and eventually becoming president w/ no governmental experience. Sound familiar??!!<br />Balance your research w/ some Pro-Villista research.<br /><br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-648884752216444797.post-65907114957136605482016-08-19T03:14:10.019-07:002016-08-19T03:14:10.019-07:00From Harry Browne's 'The War Racket, Part ...From Harry Browne's 'The War Racket, Part I'<br />Myth: The Zimmermann telegram proved that the Germans intended to fight America.<br />However, the telegram actually said the opposite:<br />We intend to begin on the first of February unrestricted submarine warfare. We shall endeavor in spite of this to keep the United States of America neutral. In the event of this not succeeding, we make Mexico a proposal of alliance on the following basis: make war together, make peace together, generous financial support and an understanding on our part that Mexico is to reconquer the lost territory in Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona. The settlement in detail is left to you. (whole book at HarryBrowne.org $9.95)Park Burretshttp://parkburrets.comnoreply@blogger.com
