GLOBAL POST/ OPINION / MIKE O'CONNOR/ "Despite a star-studded cast, the show of diplomacy in Mexico this week failed to address the real problem: no one knows where to begin...Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and the other top U.S. officials who stopped by Mexico this week had nice things to say about President Felipe Calderon...
...But few of her words pertained to Mexico's reality. The obvious truth went unspoken, perhaps because no one knows exactly how to put it into words. The problem is simply too big, and everything Mexico has tried is failing."
