Violence in Mexico is spreading into US and Atlanta has been declared the key distribution point for one of Mexico’s largest drug cartels, says Dept. of Justice. However, Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano, is still playing this down, as if the violence and drug trade remain within Mexico’s borders. I wondered why and so I went looking for answers.
Sources close to Napolitano said Mexico’s President Calderon has requested President Obama’s Administration to not say anything publically that could be construed as encouraging for the Mexican drug cartels. The State Department and CIA have previously said Calderons government is hanging by a thread an unless they can start showing their suppression efforts are succeeding there is little chance he will finish out his term. A cautious tourist advisory now exists for travel to Mexico.
