This is the first step to annex another region.

  1. Historical Claim
  2. Support separatist or militia in these region
  3. Fabricate or Encourage attack on the border
  4. Impose light economical sanctions
  5. People in such country will get fed up and will increase clashes with the government.
  6. Government start anti-usa imperialism and start military campaign against them.
  7. USA say they are committing genocide or something and question their sovereignty
  8. USA announce special operation to restore peace

Cycle continue ….

We saw this in Lebanon, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Ukraine and many other countries that the USA has admitted funding different group inside them to destabilize them. But now it seems trump plan or asked to do the same with both Mexico and canada.

They can justify it with Mexico because of drugs and immigrants, but it is harder for Canada. They US news tried to blame canada for “terrorist” and “illegal immigrants” but it seems they are following the same stories with Mexico.

And Ukraine, don't forget Ukraine. Just replace the US with Russia in the whole post and you get closer to the truth.
