“Where is the outrage over this incident????....
Rush Limbaugh just asked the same question.
Nothing but ‘crickets’.
More info on this weekends killings:
Mexican drug war killings hit closer to U.S.
Two of the victims were U.S. citizens; one of them a U.S. government employee. The apparently coordinated attacks took place in broad daylight as the three were leaving a consulate childrens party. Three children were with them when the two separate assaults took place.
Now, the international investigation has expanded****** to both sides of the border in the search for clues *****about the killers as well as their motives.
There are leads to follow up on this side, witnesses to be interviewed, said Andrea Simmons, spokeswoman for the FBI in El Paso, which is across from Juarez. We are going through intelligence now.
Mexican state and federal authorities are in charge of the investigation, as blood was spilled on Mexican soil, but an array of U.S. agencies are backing them up, including the FBI and State Department.
The murders immediately triggered a spate of theories as to what the killers attempted to accomplish by striking out at the Americans.
My theory at this point is it was a reaction by the narcos to announcements of greater involvement of Americans in the drug war, said Gustavo de la Rosa, a Chihuahua state human rights official who was forced to flee to El Paso because of death threats.
The killings came three weeks after news reports described how U.S. drug agents were going to become more closely involved in Mexicos war against the drug cartels.
De la Rosa theorized that******* the narcos perversely hope to tap a deep Mexican resentment against any American meddling in domestic affairs, a sentiment that dates back to the Mexican Revolution.**********
