U.S. Admits Mexican Cartels Control Parts Of Border

Janet Napolitano spent much of the spring sounding like a broken record ensuring that the U.S.-Mexico border is safe when the reality is that stretches are controlled by drug-trafficking organizations.A new federal report exposing the ugly truth about the southern border has left President Obama’s Homeland Security Secretary with egg on her face. Published by the Justice Department’s National Drug Intelligence Center, the document contradicts much of what Napolitano has preached in the last few months during highly publicized jaunts to the crime-infested region.Remember this? The Mexican border “is as secure as it has ever been.” Or what about this; violence along the Mexican border is merely a mistaken “perception” because the Obama Administration has successfully fostered a “secure and prosperous” region. Napolitano also said that “misinformation about safety” is negatively impacting border communities and that the U.S.-Mexico border is not “overrun or out of control.”The truth is that Mexican drug cartels do in fact “control access to the U.S.-Mexico border” and the “smuggling routes across it,” according to the Justice Department’s drug assessment, which has been kept quiet by the administration. No press conferences or photo ops to promote this report, which concludes that the “unprecedented levels of violence in Mexico”  will continue for years to come.The crisis has also flowed north because cartels—including Sinaloa, Los Zetas and Juarez—have joined forces with U.S. street gangs that operate in more than 1,000 cities throughout the country, according to the report. Together they run profitable enterprises that sell cocaine, heroin, marijuana and methamphetamines brought into the U.S. through the southern border. This sort of “collaboration between U.S. gangs and Mexican-based” criminal organizations will continue to increase, facilitating wholesale drug trafficking into and within the United States, the report says.This is hardly shocking news. The National Drug Intelligence Center has for years determined that Mexican drug trafficking organizations represent the greatest crime threat to the United States. In fact, the agency’s2009 report says that the violence, intimidation, theft and financial crimes carried out by the illicit operations “pose a significant threat” to the nation as a whole.

    one realizes how corrupt and disingenuous these politicians are by looking at SEN. JOHN McAMNESTY… a war monger that would have us in every global squirmish, but can’t SURRENDER THE BORDERS OF HIS OWN STATE of ARIZONA ENOUGH!

    AMNESTY… Legalizing Mexico’s Occupation and looting and Obama’s Sabotage of Our Borders, Laws and American Culture… it will also be the death of the GOP!

    http://mexicanoccupation.blogspot.com/2013/05/amnesty-or-really-legalizing-mexicos.html

    THE AMNESTY HOAX…. It’s nothing more than legalizing 40 million Mexican invaders and looters and calling them UNREGISTERED DEMS!

    THE AMNESTY HOAX is devised to avoid E-VERIFY to help ease more illegals into our jobs to keep wages depressed.

    THE AMNESTY HOAX will be simply a continuation of Obama’s war on the American worker, LA RAZA rights over American’s and OPEN BORDERS.

    I don’t need someone with siht for brains telling me lies. And I especially despise paying someone a damn good salary to lie to me. More over someone with siht for brains that get’s paid way too much for a useless job, to lie to me.

    What a LAME excuse for an American administration!!, We spend money, borrow money, have troops way out in the middle east..etc etc…

    Yet we are facing a HUGE crisis RIGHT HERE!!! and its being ignored and swept under the rug!! Appaling use of American resources!!

    And even then, they make “excuse”, “pardon” and “amnesty” for these people…PATHETIC!!!

    Okay, this is a naive question not a stupid one as I know some may automatically think. My question is: Why is Homeland Security and Obama doing this? It is our citizens whose lives are in jeapordy here. Why are they sweeping it under the rug? Is it because they might offend the illegals? Nope, i dont think that is it. Is it not knowing what to do to protect our borders? I mean there are a lot of ideas on how to secure the border, but there doesn’t seem to be one in which the majority agrees on. Please, someone explain this to me in which even I can understand.
