VIVA LA RAZA SUPREMACY? RUTHLESS MEXICAN DRUG CARTEL LOS ZETAS INVADES AMERICA'S OPEN BORDERS


THE MEXICAN DRUG CARTELS HAVE ENJOYED EXPANDED UNDER OBAMA’S SABOTAGE OF OUR BORDERS TO BUILD HIS LA RAZA PARTY BASE of ILLEGALS.

THE CARTELS NOW OPERATE IN MORE THAN 2,500 AMERICAN CITIES INCLUDING OBAMA’S CHICAGO!

Known for mounting the severed heads of its rivals on poles or hanging their dismembered bodies from bridges in cities throughout Mexico, Los Zetas easily has become the most feared criminal gang in Mexico.

"The Zetas are determined to gain the reputation of being the most sadistic, cruel and beastly organization that ever existed," said George W. Grayson, a professor of government at the College of William & Mary and a specialist on Mexican drug gangs. "Many of Mexico's existing drug cartels will kill their enemies, but not go out of their way to do it. The Zetas look forward to inflicting fear on their targets. They won't just cut off your ear; they'll cut off your head and think nothing of it."

 Ruthless Mexican drug cartel recruiting in the U.S.; Los Zetas looks to prisons, street gangs

A Mexican drug cartel known for kidnapping random civilians and beheading its rivals has expanded its operations into the U.S.

The gang known as Los Zetas is recruiting U.S. prison and street gangs, and non-Mexicans, for its drug trafficking and support operations in Mexico and the U.S.

An FBI intelligence bulletin notes that "multiple sources" reported the shift in Los Zetas recruiting. The cartel sought to maintain a highly disciplined and structured hierarchy by recruiting members with specialized training, such as former military and law enforcement officers.

"The FBI judges with high confidence that Los Zetas will continue to increase its recruitment efforts and establish pacts with non-military trained, nontraditional associates to maintain their drug-trafficking and support operations, which may increase violence along the Southwest border posing a threat to U.S. national security," the bulletin says.

The expansion of Los Zetas operations across the southwestern border has long been a concern of U.S. authorities. Trained as an elite band of Mexican anti-drug commandos, Los Zetas evolved into mercenaries for the infamous Gulf Cartel, unleashing a wave of brutality in Mexico's drug wars.

Bolstered by an influx of assassins, bandits, thieves and thugs, as well as corrupt federal, state and local police officers, the gang has evolved into a well-financed and heavily armed drug-smuggling force of its own.

Known for mounting the severed heads of its rivals on poles or hanging their dismembered bodies from bridges in cities throughout Mexico, Los Zetas easily has become the most feared criminal gang in Mexico.

"The Zetas are determined to gain the reputation of being the most sadistic, cruel and beastly organization that ever existed," said George W. Grayson, a professor of government at the College of William & Mary and a specialist on Mexican drug gangs. "Many of Mexico's existing drug cartels will kill their enemies, but not go out of their way to do it. The Zetas look forward to inflicting fear on their targets. They won't just cut off your ear; they'll cut off your head and think nothing of it."

Weapons, cars, horses

The FBI intelligence bulletin quotes what it describes as "corroborated collaborative" sources "with excellent access" to show that Los Zetas has increased its effort to recruit and contract with U.S. gangs for daily drug trafficking activities in the United States.

The bulletin says the FBI had "moderate confidence" that Los Zetas likely will pose a higher national security threat to the U.S., based on "demonstrated capabilities for violence, their recent killings of U.S. citizens, increased kidnappings of U.S. citizens on both sides of the border, and their continued participation in the U.S. drug trade."

According to the FBI, Los Zetas:

• Made contact with the Texas Mexican Mafia prison gang and tasked its members to collect debts, carry out hits and traffic drugs into and through Laredo, Texas.

• Tried to recruit U.S. gang members in Houston to join Los Zetas' war against the Gulf Cartel on both sides of the border.

• Was buying AK-47 semi-automatic assault rifles from the Tango Blast, a ouston-based street gang.

  Had contacted the McAllen, Texas-based Los Piojos drug gang to purchase vehicles for Los Zetas members through thefts, carjackings and auto auctions in Texas.

Some of Los Zetas' U.S. contacts have involved millions of dollars in drug profits, including efforts in Austin, Texas, to purchase, train, breed and race American quarter horses in the U.S. Four men were convicted in May for their roles in a conspiracy to launder millions of dollars in Los Zetas drug money. Among the convicted: Texas resident Jose Trevino Morales, brother of purported Los Zetas leaders Omar Trevino Morales and Miguel Trevino Morales.

Trial evidence showed that the men used straw purchasers and transactions in New Mexico, Oklahoma, California and Texas to disguise the drug money and make the proceeds from the sales of quarter horses or their race winnings appear legitimate.

U.S. Attorney Robert Pitman in San Antonio said at the time that the case showed how the corrupting influence of drug cartels had extended into the U.S., with "cartel bosses using an otherwise legitimate domestic industry to launder proceeds from drug trafficking and other crimes."

'A wake-up call'

Los Zetas activity has not been limited to the border states.

In November, five reputed Los Zetas members were named in a federal grand jury indictment in a Chicago-based drug operation that transported more than $12 million in drug profits between Chicago and Mexico. FBI agents also seized more than 550 pounds of the gang's cocaine in the Chicago area.

U.S. Attorney Patrick J. Fitzgerald called the indictment the "first federal prosecution in Chicago of defendants allegedly tied to the Zetas drug-trafficking cartel."

FBI Special Agent in Charge Robert D. Grant, who heads the bureau's Chicago field office, said the presence of Los Zetas in the Chicago area "should serve as a wake-up call to law enforcement throughout the state."

In 2010, federal agents tied a cocaine operation in Baltimore to Los Zetas. Prosecutors said cocaine and marijuana dealers gave $1.2 million to the Mexican cartel for drugs. Convicted were Wade Coats, 45, and James Bostic, 39, both of Baltimore; and Jose Cavazos, 43, of Midlothian, Texas.

Investigators seized $610,000 in heat-sealed bricks of cash wrapped in aluminum foil in two suitcases, and recorded a meeting between Bostic and Los Zetas members in White Marsh, Md., in which he handed over $590,000 for marijuana and cocaine.

The Midwest and the Northeast aren't the only spots targeted by Los Zetas for its drug trafficking operations. The Department of Homeland Security has said Mexican drug cartels, including Los Zetas, have infiltrated 276 U.S. cities and represent the nation's most serious organized-crime threat.

The National Drug Intelligence Center said the influence of Mexican drug gangs is "still expanding" and that Los Zatas is more deeply entrenched than any other drug trafficking organization and operates coast to coast.

Mr. Grayson has noted that Los Zetas members "pose a more serious threat to citizens on both sides of the border." He said many of the gang's members have homes north of the Rio Grande, where they seek havens and attempt to lure young Americans into their clutches.

Mr. Grayson, the specialist in Mexican drug cartels, said Los Zetas' distribution routes run through the U.S., which means the gang has no respect for international boundaries. He said the gang considers Dallas a key point for transporting and distributing drugs and, according to the FBI, has gained control over U.S. gangs such as the Mexican Mafia, the Texas Syndicate, MS-13 and the Hermanos Pistoleros Latinos.

A trail of body parts

Violence is Los Zetas' trademark. What the gang is capable of was never clearer than the carnage it left in December 2009 on a squalid back street in the border town of Reynosa, Mexico, across the Rio Grande from McAllen, Texas. The bodies no longer looked like those of humans, torsos scarred by deep lacerations and punctures, with badly beaten severed heads. Butchered limbs lay scattered across a blood-stained tarmac.

"See. Hear. Shut up, if you want to stay alive," read a note written like so many others in block letters on blood-splattered poster board.

Anyone is a potential victim — men, women and children

Mexican authorities unearthed more than 150 bodies from mass graves in April 2011 in the northeastern state of Tamaulipas, which is across the border from Brownsville, Texas. Many of the victims were kidnapped off buses and killed when they refused to work for the gang.

The victims were Mexicans and Central and South American migrants who authorities think were targeted to work for Los Zetas as gunmen or drug mules. Others were thought to have been killed when they refused ransom demands.

Los Zetas has used beheadings and dismemberments to punish rivals or betrayers, establish turf, terrorize citizens against testifying and press political leaders to collaborate. But random killings also have become the gang's trademark — a demonstration that no one is beyond their reach, that they can kidnap, torture and kill anyone they choose.

Many of the gang's targets have been Mexican military and police personnel, but U.S. law enforcement authorities also have come under attack.

As early as 2008, the FBI warned U.S. authorities that Los Zetas was attempting to gain control of drug routes into America and had ordered its members to use violence against U.S. law enforcement officers to protect their operations.

Armed and dangerous

According to an FBI intelligence bulletin, the gang stockpiled weapons in safe houses in the U.S. in response to crackdowns in the U.S. and Mexico against drug traffickers. The bulletin said Jaime Gonzalez Duran, head of Zetas operations for the McAllen, Texas, region, or "plaza," had ordered gang members to "regain control and engage law enforcement officers if confronted." It said the gang members were armed with "assault rifles, bullet proof vests and grenades.”

When Gonzalez Duran was arrested in November 2008 in Reynosa by Mexican Federal Police and the Mexican army, police and military officials took custody of what was then the largest weapons seizure in Mexico's history — 540 rifles including 288 assault rifles and .50-caliber sniper rifles, 287 hand grenades, two M-72 anti-tank weapons, 500,000 rounds of ammunition, 67 ballistic vests and 14 sticks of dynamite.

In September 2010, David Hartley, 30, was fatally shot as he and his wife, Tiffany, 29, were riding personal watercraft on Falcon Lake along the U.S.-Mexico border in Zapata, Texas. Mrs. Hartley managed to escape, and U.S. authorities said the shooters were members of Los Zetas. Shortly after the attack, the lead investigator on the case in Mexico was decapitated

It also was a Los Zetas hit squad that killed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agent Jaime Zapata in a Feb. 15, 2011, ambush on a major Mexican highway 250 miles north of Mexico City. Attacked with AK-47 assault rifles, Zapata was shot five times in the chest and his partner, Victor Avila Jr., was wounded twice in the leg after being forced off the highway and attacked — despite identifying themselves as Americans and being in a vehicle with diplomatic plates.

Guatemalan officials said Los Zetas has established bases in several jungle areas and formed alliances with Central American gangs to take control of cocaine shipments from Guatemala to Mexico. Other links have been forged between Los Zetas and the Ndrangheta, one of Italy's most powerful crime syndicates that specializes in cocaine distribution and arms trafficking.

Los Zetas also has pushed its way into legal and illegal businesses by killing, kidnapping or extorting those in control, a scheme known as "plata o plomo," Spanish for "money or lead." According to U.S. law enforcement and intelligence reports, gang members use their massive supply of weapons and high-tech equipment to instill fear to take over businesses.

Seeking to grab a larger portion of the $25 billion cocaine, heroin and marijuana market in the United States, Los Zetas is estimated to have between 1,000 and 3,000 hard-core members and 10,000 loyalists across Mexico, Central America and the United States. Authorities said the gang has organized a sophisticated supply and distribution network through its established territories.

"The Zetas are quite diversified and they are good bookkeepers," said Mr. Grayson, the College of William & Mary professor. "They will go where they can make money and will do what they have to do to make it happen."

"So that's the "pragmatic" Republican Senate solution. Tweak this fatally flawed legislation by tacking a few fig leaf amendments onto it, hoping it comes back from the House with the amnesty plan still intact. Why? Not to protect the country, secure our borders, protect the public safety or uphold the rule of law - but to win more votes from Hispanics."

AMERICA vs MEXICO: CLASHING CULTURES

By Frosty Wooldridge


Illegals cheat, distribute drugs, lie, forge documents, steal and kill as if it’s a normal way of life. For them, it is. Mexico’s civilization stands diametrically opposed to America’s culture.

The legal age of sexual consent in Mexico is 12 years old. Sex with children at this age and younger is socially acceptable in Mexico. For example: A Mexican Lopez-Mendez pleaded guilty to sexual assault on a 10 year old girl in West Virginia.

BARACK OBAMA, LA RAZA FASCISM and the CULTURE of DEM CORRUPTION

They Destroyed Our Country

“They knew Obama was an unqualified crook; yet they promoted him. They knew Obama was a train wreck waiting to happen; yet they made him president, to the great injury of America and the world. They understood he was only a figurehead, an egomaniac, and a liar; yet they made him king, doing great harm to our republic (perhaps irreparable.)”
