Borderline Perspectives

So here’s the story: Drug violence spins Mexico toward ‘civil war’.

And here’s the piece that provokes this post:

Victimhood in international relations — great.

How about an alternate rendition?

…the United States Mexico helps fuel the violence, not only by providing a ready market for illegal drugs weapons used by drug gangs, but also by supplying the vast majority of weapons used by drug gangs illegal drugs.

Interesting, no?

So…do I (and/or you) do this sort of thing in my our own communicating?
