Mexico's President Claims She Has 'Plan A, Plan B, Plan C' In Response To Trump Tariffs

Only a few days ago the president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, was questioning with some skepticism whether or not Donald Trump would actually follow through on his threats of 25% tariffs on most Mexican-made goods. "We don't think it's going to happen," Sheinbaum said at her regular morning press conference. "And if it does happen, we also have our plan."

As of the 1st of February it appears that her doubts have been put to rest. Donald Trump has reiterated that he is going to stick to his tariff plan and that it will not be incremental. Around 80% of all Mexican exports go to the US, which means that the majority of their manufacturing base will be immediately hit with a drop in US retail demand. Mexican business leaders say this will trigger a number of bankruptcies and higher unemployment in border cities.

Sheinbam claims in a recent press conference that she has a 'Plan A, Plan B and Plan C' in the face of high tariffs, but what does she really mean? What would Mexico's response be, specifically?

First and foremost, Sheinbaum has threatened retaliatory tariffs on US exports to Mexico, her "Plan A". Around 15% of US exports end up south of the border, however, Mexico is far more export dependent than the US. Only 10% of the US economy is based on exports while 43% of Mexico's economy relies on exports according to the World Bank. In other words, tariffs will hurt them a lot more than they'll hurt America.

Like most establishment media economists, Mexico also argues that the US consumer will have to eat the inflation in prices that comes with tariffs. This is assuming, though, that there are no alternatives to the Mexican goods being imported. Car parts, electrical equipment, oil and gas, fruits and vegetables are a few of the biggest markets for Mexican goods. The US produces close to 90% of the food that Americans purchase and Trump has indicated that energy may be exempt from tariffs.

The Mexican President's Plan B and Plan C are not so clear. It is likely that Sheinbaum will seek aid from other Latin American governments, either to establish economic agreements to help lessen the pain of US tariffs, or as a means to put pressure on Trump through organized geopolitical sparring. Most of these countries also have favorable trade imbalances with the US and none of them hold much international weight.

Israel releases prominent Hamas leader after year in prison

Israel on Thursday released a prominent Hamas leader in the West Bank, the Islamist group said, a year after his arrest along with hundreds of others following the killing of three Israeli teenagers.

Hamas says Hassan Yusef, who has spent years in Israeli jails and was elected to the Palestinian parliament in 2006 while in Israeli custody, has worked entirely in the political wing of the movement.

He is also known for having disowned his son after he worked as an informant for Israel's Shin Bet internal security agency under the codename "The Green Prince".

"Occupation forces (Israel) on Thursday released Hassan Yusef after he was in administrative detention for an entire year," Hamas said in a news report on its website, Hamas.ps.

Israel's military did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The army arrested Yusef, who was born in 1954, in June 2014 as part of a round-up of hundreds of members of the group in the occupied West Bank, Hamas said.

The arrests followed the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank, which the Israeli government blamed on Hamas.

Those incidents and the brutal revenge killing of a Palestinian boy in east Jerusalem the following month by suspected Jewish extremists triggered events that led to a 50-day war between Israel and Hamas in the group's stronghold, the Gaza Strip.

Yusef's 36-year-old son, Mosab Hassan Yusef, admitted several years ago to being a top informer for Israel's domestic security service during the second Palestinian intifada (uprising) that began in 2000, when Hamas carried out dozens of suicide bombings against the Jewish state.

Under administrative detention, a procedure dating back to the British mandate of Palestine from 1920 to 1948, prisoners can be held for indefinitely renewable six-month periods without charge.

Unfortunately, Trump is setting himself up for failure—by siding with the craziest warmongering genocidal lunatics on the planet, the Israeli right wing. Israel has been in state of declared or undeclared war against all of its neighbors, and indeed against the people of the region, since its founding in 1948.

Israel is not a US ally because it refuses to declare its borders. (It can’t have borders, because it needs to keep attacking its neighbors and stealing their land.) But though ineligible for ally status, Israel has become America’s master, by having its loyalists buy politicians and the media. And the worst Israeli extremists—the West Bank settlers, who are widely loathed even among their fellow Israeli Jews—seem to think they have become Trump’s masters. If Trump obeys them, disaster will inevitably follow.

On his first day in office, Trump signaled his loyalty to Ben-Gvir and Smotrich by rescinding Biden’s sanctions on the worst of the Israeli settlers. The settlers celebrated by burning Palestinians’ houses and vehicles, injuring at least 21 people. (The settlers and their IDF accomplices have killed more than 860 people in the West Bank during the past 15 months, including 175 children, and wounded more than 6700—part of an ongoing slow-motion genocide that has continued for decades, in parallel with the more intensive genocide of Gaza.)

The settlers Trump de-sanctioned are terrorists devoted to stealing Palestinians’ land through murder and vandalism. They claim that God gave them land thousands of years ago, so they have the sacred right to slaughter the current owners, whom they regard as no better than animals, and confiscate their belongings.

Trump’s support for the craziest Israeli settlers is incompatible with his expressed wish to bring peace to the region. The settlers are squatting on land that the whole world agrees belongs to Palestinians—land that Israel stole in its 1967 invasion of its neighbors. Even Israel’s 1967 leaders admitted that stealing territory through war is unacceptable and illegal, and vowed that they would be giving back the occupied territories as soon as a suitable peace plan could be arranged.

The 1993 Oslo Accords formalized the return of the Occupied Territories in return for lasting peace. But Israel refused to meet its commitments, instead sending more than half a million invading terrorist settlers to slaughter Palestinians and permanently encroach on their land under the protection of the Israeli Army. That terror invasion made possible by the 1995 murder of Yitzhak Rabin, the Israeli Prime Minister who had been planning to comply with the Oslo Accords.

Trump’s first-term “peace plan,” the so-called Abraham Accords, was a disaster that made the current genocidal war inevitable. No regional nation, and even less the Palestinians, can genuinely support any peace plan that does not require Israel to withdraw from all of the Occupied Territories stolen in the 1967 war. Yet Trump signaled the exact opposite, by moving the US Embassy to Occupied Jerusalem and supporting the extremist settlers. The regional countries that signed the “Satan Accords” as they are known in the region did so under duress, to gain rewards and avoid punishments, with their fingers crossed, knowing that what they were signing was absurd. They might as well have been signing a deed giving Israel ownership of a distant galaxy: “Sure, we’ll sign off on palpable nonsense, just give us the money.”

Will Trump make the same mistake twice? Today, he knows which side doesn’t want peace. On December 13, 2021 Trump said Netanyahu “never wanted to make peace…F*** him” and added that Palestinian leader Abbas was the one who genuinely wanted peace.

Netanyahu has in fact dedicated most of his political career to trying to draw the US into a war on Iran. If Trump continues to rubber-stamp the lunatic actions of the worst Israelis, he could find himself on the losing side of the US-Iran war modeled in the 2003 Millenium Challenge exercise. As that war game discovered, all-out US war with Iran would likely lead to thousands of American deaths, the closure of the Straits of Hormuz, the destruction of most Middle Eastern oil infrastructure, and the worst global economic calamity ever.

Trump’s second term, and his place in history, are already in serious jeopardy.
