F&F guns went to the Sinaloa cartel.

In the course of the investigation of F&F, it was discovered that the F&F BATFE agents were unaware of six FBI informants operating within the Zetas ... or something like that; it’s hard to discern the truth when something is so FUBAR.

The Zeta story back in July was as follows.

“The FBI and DEA did not tell the ATF about the alleged informants. The ATF and congressional investigators learned later that those agencies apparently were paying cartel members whom the ATF wanted to arrest.”
“Operation Fast and Furious was conceived to get some of the bigger fish down there,” said one official close to the congressional investigation, who asked not to be identified because the probe is ongoing. “Then it turned out that some of the ones they were zeroing in on actually most likely were paid informants.” (LA Times 7/17/11)
http://articles.latimes.com/2011/jul/17/nation/la-na-cartel-guns-20110717

These were the Zetas.

Since then, a large cache of F&F firearms was found a the home of a Sinaloa Cartel enforcer. http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/10/09/guns-from-operation-fast-and-furious-found-in-home-suspected-mexican-drug/

“Forty high-powered assault weapons were found in the Ciudad Juarez home of Jose Antonio Torres Marrufo, a “feared” leader of the Sinaloa drug cartel in that city, according to the Times. The Sinaloa cartel is considered the most powerful drug trafficking organization in the world.

“These Fast and Furious guns were going to Sinaloans, and they are killing everyone down there,” one knowledgeable US government source told the Times.

There is considerable speculation about whether F&F was intentionally arming the Sinaloa Cartel to do battle with the Zetas. Remember that the Zeta leadership was trained by the USG at Fort Benning. Certainly some folks in the USG harbor resentment against the Zetas for the disloyalty of its leadership. That’s a fact, but the intentional motive of F&F is probably just a conspiracy theory. In any case, F&F is one really weird escapade of the USG.

Prior to F&F being exposed Barry Hussein Oboma, the DOJ/State Department, and the Pres. of Mexico were publicly claiming that “90% of all illegal guns found in Mexico trace back to U.S. sources”.

That was always a lie, it was quickly debunked, the MSM buried the debunking.

F&F was clearly an attempt to bolster the “90%” lie.
It was exposed before it’s true purpose could be achieved, more “Gun Control” (American populace control) with the help of “under the radar” and UN “Small arms treaty” conniving.

Thank you. I do not usually a conspiracy theorist but I not believe that the DOJ did not know where the guns were going.

The mocking unconvicted criminal Eric Holder, the unjust head of the justice department.
The world is upside down.

U.S. busts two Iranians today over terror plot

The arrest actually was on Sept 29. Today is just when they announced the charges.

Kinda-like getting bribes for a house, and calling it a bone headed move. It absolves one of all guilt of the bribe.

We just pretend that people who bill themselves as the most intelligent people in the world are helpless irresponsible incompetent stupid idiots on some occasions.

Somehow, the WH and DOJ are going to link “Fast and Furious” to the terror case... it will give Holder cover for his lies.

The regime started with that this morning. They are now trying to claim that the perps were working with a drug cartel. This morning, Fox noted that experts on Iran find it unlikely.
