[edit] Armed Soldiers?

I marked as dubious the claims that the Mexican soldiers deployed in the US were armed. There is no citation given for this, and the only reference made to this that I could find is here on PrisonPlanet.com, a website operated by Alex Jones, whose Wikipedia article says is known for his conspiracy theories. If this claim is to stay in the article, it needs to have a citation from a reputable source.--Tabun1015 15:55, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

On second thought, after looking through the page history[1], I decided to remove the info outright. The claims were added by an unregistered user with no citation, which casts doubt upon their veracity.--Tabun1015 16:07, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
We need a much more reliable source for something like that. It is very unlikely that Mexican soldiers were armed in American territory. ---CWY2190TC 18:24, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
