The subject of this post is that “nearly 80%” of the border fence is in Mexico’s Sovereign border, so I don’t see the issue with them removing the trespassing part of the fence.
In the sense that we are all international citizens and that any action by anyone near any border is an international “incident”, sure I guess.
But if you want to be honest and acknowledge that calling something an “international incident” is a pretty loaded term, then I would say absolutely not.
Im not sure I understand. You don’t think forcing another nation to clean up a mess we made is enough of an international incident to be called an international incident?
A friend of mine has land up in vermont that borders canada. Directly behind his property line is Canada. If I take a beer can and throw it into Canada, is that an “international incident”?
Is the collapsing fence that quite possibly goes into the Canadian border illegal? Is it an “international incident?”
You’re arguing for states having free reign to fuck with international entities by doing whatever they want - up to, but not including, the Cuban missile crisis?
Absolutely not. I’m saying that trash on an international border isn’t an international incident unless you are trying to make mountains out of mole hills. Neither is building a fence there.

That would literally be an international incident, no?

There’s a reason the government started calling unidentified flying objects “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena”.
Would that definitely be an occurrence between two countries? Yes.
Would that be an “international incident”? Maybe.

There’s a news report about 80% of Vermont’s trash winding up in Canada, is that not an international incident?
I’m just trying to understand your own words, and you’re getting worked up. What do you think the words “international incident” mean?
The Cuban Missile Crisis, A U2 being shot down in Soviet Air Space, trash being blown into Canada, are these things equivalent to you?
