U.S./Mexico Border Depicted as War Zone in Video Game

Pedro Malavet (Florida) posted an interesting question about a new video game:

Ok, this is probably because I am still jet lagged, from 10 hours on the airplane, but has anyone else noticed that this new Tom Clancy video game about war takes place along the US-Mexico border wall? I do not play such games, so I am wondering who this enemy is.

Here is a description of the game:

The award-winning next-gen killer app returns with Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter™ 2. The Ghosts are back! It’s 2014, and the soldier of the future returns to encounter a new and more imminent threat along the recently completed wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. The Ghosts are more powerful with an upgraded Integrated Warfighter System (IWS) but will have only 72 hours to assess the threat and stop the rebels from reaching U.S. soil. With a border that’s 1,900 miles long and an enemy that doesn’t play by the rules, this is a job for the U.S. military’s most elite fighting unit. This is a job for the Ghosts.
