Mexican Cartel Demolishes Town, kills hundreds and gets away with it

Here is the link...It's a long read but very interesting. How can this sort of thing happen where so many people are murdered and the rest of the world not catch wind of it? Scary stuff.

well it is easy... Mexico does not have enough oil. we only help oil rich countries.

I been saying for a long time if we clean Mexico up then that would stop / slow down the influx of people crossing.

Holly cow, that was a long article full of misery. I didn't read it all but enogh to not want to eat roasted chicken for a while.

I can't help to think that there is a slight of hand going on, we are all looking at the wrong hand, waving in the Middle East while the trick is being played right under our noses.

I'm now thinking Mexico has purposely been under reported and the events marginalized. Their also seems to be a stigma or maybe it's me that these murderers are just a bunch of Desparato type drug lords and thugs, and not very organized. Not the case I'm afraid to say.

What and stop the cheap labor that the companies that hire these desperate people?
Also, we want the drug cartels in charge, the US likes the drug money

That was one of the most disturbing things ive ever read... they were just so helpless...

The fact that you could be burned alive just for having worked with someone... to be a mexican farmer, killed by the cartels or killed by the government. So horrendous...

Oh the US does help,

it gives asylum to the cartel and gang members

it gives them free transport to anywhere in the US

it gives them a piece of paper telling them to check in and never follows through.

The US is being quite helpful - to the gangs and cartel members.

Depopulation, by any chance?

You do read about these horrors taking place all over the world. Everytime I hear 'world population' is out of control I tend to double take as I can't help doubting it. Towns and cities most certainly are overpopulated but there are so many murders, wars, atrocicties (such as the above) and add to this list disease, that I wonder if someone has decided to scrub the human race off the planet?

Yeah, that was pretty nasty.

That has to suck, living in the third world... when it should be the first world.

All courtesy of an elite who only cares about money and power.....They are willing to milk humanity from both sides of the law.....and the fact is that the elite, and the cartels are the same beast.......

makes you wonder if the guns that killed them came from Eric Holder's gun sales to the cartels.

how much blood is on his hands?

Mexico actually does have quite a bit of oil. The state controlled oil company PEMEX alone funds 40% of the governments budget. It's actually so large that the cartels have begun siphoning off the oil money. They tap the lines, fill tankers, and then drive them up to the US and sell them at our refineries at a discount. From there it gets turned into various products and sold legitimately by our oil companies on the world market.

As it is our oil companies are buying oil from Mexico at drastically reduced prices due to the black market nature. If you like VICE they had a pretty good documentary on it, just search for vice and mexican oil on Youtube it should pop up. Alternatively check their Youtube channel (VICE I think, not VICE News) I believe it's still on the first page of videos on their list.
