More Drug Cartel Spillover Violence; Mexican Military Enters The United States
Friends of Ours ^ | 10/02/10 | Friends of Ours

Posted on 10/02/2010 4:37:49 PM PDT by AtlasStalled

Although the Obama Administration insists there is no spillover violence from the brutal turf wars among the Mexican drug cartels, local U.S. law enforcement along the border respectfully disagree. In the latest incident two men were murdered on Thursday in Brownsville, TX, and one of the victims has been identified as Omar Castillo Flores who is the younger brother of former reputed Gulf cartel members Alberto "Beto Fabe" Castillo Flores and Oscar "El Apache" Castillo Flores as reported by The Brownsville Herald. Beto Fabe, a lieutenant with the Gulf cartel, was murdered last summer, and El Apache, arrested by U.S. authorities last July, allegedly had defected to rival Los Zetas. Meanwhile, on Friday afternoon, the Mexican military entered the United States after crossing over the Progreso International Bridge in Hidalgo County, TX during a suspect chase, and "[d]ozens of sheriff's deputies, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents and Progreso police units rushed to the bridge, shutting down traffic from 2:45 to 4:30 p.m." as reported by The Brownsville Herald.

Obama has ceded about 5 miles of Arizona border land to the coyotes, and drug dealers. This is treason, and he should be jailed for life for allowing this here.

There was a time when this would have been considered an act of war. Probably the last time it would have been was when Reagan was president.

Once again, the US is at war and doesn’t even know it.

Mexican Military (owned & controlled by cartel) crossed the border in persuit of a wanted cartel boss who had switched sides.

Wonder how the Mexican Military would have reacted if they were greeted by a couple of Black Hawks? It will come to that point soon. Shades of Poncho Villa ++++

“Obama has ceded about 5 miles of Arizona border land to the coyotes, and drug dealers. This is treason, and he should be jailed for life for allowing this here.”

Millions of acres of forest land has been put off limits to US citizens because of this invasion.

Just the recent ones....about 2 dozen stories and photos:
