Drug trafficking Los Zetas cartel creates ISIS-style beheading video to spread fear
Chron ^ | March 10th, 2017 | By Fernando Ramirez

For a few years, a wide-spread effort by the Mexican military to arrest or kill cartel leaders, most notably Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, seemed to be making progress.

But as Cartels began to fight for the territory of military-weakened rivals, the homicide rate once again exploded.

Now, a disturbing video shows the extreme length that participants in the emerging all-out gang war will go to retain or take power.

The graphic video shows two Los Zetas gunmen insulting rival gangs behind a shirtless, kneeling man.

The gunmen claim that their victim is part of a rival gang who was sent to commit crimes in Ciudad Victoria, according to a translation by Breitbart.

After delivering more threats to rival gangs, one of the gunmen pulls out a meat cleaver and cuts the victim's throat. The victim is then decapitated, and the gunmen place the severed head on the victim's back.

I would wager there are at least as many beheadings in Mexico as in Syria.

Tell me again why we don't need a wall, and why we should not crush and kill the gangs that are now here?

Differs in degree but not kind from the rumrunners of Prohibition.

Beheading has a long history. The following is a list of notable people who were beheaded, arranged alphabetically by country or region and with date of decapitation.

interesting list, but they added beheaded by means of accident, which doesn’t really count in my book. I will say one thing however, it seems like the knife they used in the middle-east is much sharper than south america’s.
