NY Times: Pascual Quits Over Cables on Mexico
The American Ambassador to Mexico resigned his position on Saturday. There were many factors that led to this decision made by Carlos Pascual, former ambassador. One major factor to his decision came from the bitter complaints of Felipe Calderon, the Mexican President. Another issue was WikiLeaks cables posted that in December Pascual questioned the Mexican army's "bravery" in capturing a cartel leader. The final straw to his resignation was made by Hilary Clinton, Secretary of State, who coerced Pascual to resign in order that the relationship between Mexico and America not be strained.
Lord,
Thank for who you are. Thank you for being there in the tough times and the god times. Lord, I pray that you give comfort to Carlos Pascual who I am sure was very stressed over his delegations with Mexico and America. He might have been quoted wrong or just misinterpreted, but either way let him be comforted by you. I also pray for Calderon who is facing probably one of the hardest times in Mexico dealing with the drug cartel and chaos in his country. Lord, I pray we can help ease the pain and burden of such atrocities occurring in Mexico. Lord, I also pry for Hilary Clinton. Lord, giver her wisdom so she can make adequate decisions. Lord, you are the only and perfect ambassador and I am so grateful for that.
Amen.
