They’ve never seen an A10 or Apache work over a target area.

Reminds me a little about a fact my husband shared with me....

When he worked as a research chemist,there was a permitted amount of mouse hairs per pound of floor.

Accepted fact that it was impossible to eliminate all.

So may it be with illegal drugs, but huge improvement!

ABCNews is the Cartel mouthpiece?

You do know that the mainstream news organizations are the enemies of the USA?

They own at least half of our politicians.

This is the key point.

They believe they own enough public officials to prevent anything from happening to them. That is how the system works in Mexico.

There are Mexican officials who support the Cartels and there are Mexican officials who are dead. That is their system. We do not want that system here.

Both the influx of undesirables into our country and the smuggling of illicit drugs would be greatly reduced if only we weren’t running a massive welfare state.

Idle hands are not good, without massive welfare people would be about the business of earning income and raising families with little time for nonsense.

The awesome movie Sicario will be fiction turned documentary.

“They asked us not to share which cartel, but safe to say you’ve heard the name, as has Trump.”

So our press can embed with a criminal org, now labelled terrorist... yet keep secrets for them?
——————————
I’m thinking that they were “asked” in the same way Don Corleone requested someone to sign a contract.

Thanks ABC. This doesn’t pass the BS test. No one in their right minds want Delta hunting them, nor US Marine Raiders working with the Mexican Marines on search and destroy missions.

The play book CIA did in Colombia will be particularly fun.

Not sure what cartel they are talking about but the real ones don’t smuggle consumer guns and brag about it. The real ones are making deals with war lords for real weapons.

There were many, many military ops in the late 80s. The corruption is simply overwhelming. There is no real way to stop it. Well, there is one way.. convince Americans, Canadians to give up drugs, n now pedophilia.
The high value of child trafficking has added another stream of untold wealth. I can’t see this amount of money being surrendered.
The military doesn’t have that much power.
