From Brig. General Felderman's Speech at Border Management Conference, May 25, 2010: (Transcript)
"We developed a strategic guidance statement - The Partnership for the 21st Century - U.S. Southwest Border Security ...it brought together a unified approach to improve border security and support the government of Mexico."
"And so, as that strategic guidance came out with a purpose, it was to provide that strategic direction in protecting our national interest and supporting the strategic partnership with the government of Mexico."
"....even though when the homeland was first brought up as a term there were a lot of folks that thought it should have been at a national level and so we're defending on the mission, we're defending the homeland, in the Western Hemisphere, North America is a little bit more than that. It is our partners who came to that in Mexico, in the Bahamas in Central America and South America - them all building up their national security..."
"We're the one entity - the Department of Homeland Security and those agencies that are able to bring out those continental security goals. And don't be surprised if you don't start seeing some issue papers that are kind of talking in those realms."
American Patrol Report comment: So our Department of Defense responds to the wholesale invasion of our nation by Mexico by entering into a partnership with them. And now our "homeland" isn't just the U.S. -- it is the entire hemisphere. -- We are going to secure the nation by destroying it.
