I tried to figure out where the news about implants is coming from. In Spanish the only stories of this nature are about ostensible proposals within the U.S. to do exactly that - nothing from Mexico, except for denunciations of U.S perfidy
. In English all the stories seem to lead to some news site about India (of all places) called New Kerala, attributed to the Indo-Asian News Service (next time you need any news about Pakistan, make sure it comes from a Panamanian source). They claim to refer to the news announcement by the INM, but the INM said nothing about any implants, only about the new ID card. So, most likely the ones to mistranslate were the Indians. Although, perhaps it wasn't a mere mistranslation. The news is dated December 28 - Mexico's equivalent of April Fool's day. I actually know of an Indian guy in Mexico who could have joked like this on some of his credulous compatriots (probably, it's not him, but there must be others). So, to all those seriously discussing this: "ˇInocente palomita!"
