SAN FERNANDO, Mexico – Two cars exploded early Friday in a northern state where officials are investigating the killing of 72 Central and South American migrants, while a prosecutor investigating the massacre has disappeared. The prosecutor, Roberto Jaime Suarez, disappeared Wednesday in the town of San Fernando, where the bodies of the migrants were found, the Tamaulipas state attorney general's office said in a statement. A transit police officer in the town is also missing.
President Felipe Calderon, speaking during a forum on security, said Suarez, a Tamaulipas state prosecutor, was involved in the initial investigation of the massacre, which authorities have blamed on the Zetas drug cartel. The federal Attorney General's Office has since taken the lead in the case.
The two car explosions happened less than 45 minutes apart in Ciudad Victoria, the Tamulipas state capital, the Attorney General's Office said. The first exploded in front of the offices of the Televisa network and the second in front of transit-police offices.

Is it premature to call Mexico a “failed state”?
The raw power of Islam has moved in...
Yep...failed state. Good way to put it. In the meantime, let’s keep the borders wide open.../s
This is only happening because of Arizona’s racist immigration law that mirrors unenforced federal law.

“The raw power of Islam has moved in.”
Obama’s buddies are moving in. He has done nothing to condemn them rather he bows to them and treats the US like dirt

Have no fear, our hall monitor in chief is has completed his report and is ready to run to the UN to tell on us for our horrible human rights record.
“This discovery once again demonstrates the extreme danger and violence that Central Americans face on their treacherous journey north, as well as the Mexican government’s abject failure to protect them,” said a statement released by the human rights organization Amnesty International.”
Thank you, AI. How ‘bout putting the responsibility squarely on the people who take the “treacherous journey north”, rather than intimating they’re the martyrs and heroes here? NGOs - gotta love ‘em...

That p.o.s. Presidente Calderon has a lot of nerve complaining about the way we treat Mexican illegal immigrants. Soutn American and Central American illegals in Mexico are raped, robbed, and murdered in Mexico all the time. Mexican police are often the culprits. The Mexican police and military are infiltrated by the cartels. Como se dice “Chutzpah” en Espanol?
After ice cream and golf.....
They aren't responsible for their murders. The murderers are.
Ping!
“Is it premature to call Mexico a “failed state”?”
I hate to be crude but Mexico failed the day that the words Donkey and Show were put together in an advertisement.
Thank you for the ping SwinneySwitch.
