Undercover Mexican drug agents killed














Thanks to: BBC News


Mexican drug kingpin  Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman is probably to blame for the two agent's deaths. A note reading, "Neither priests or rulers will ever get El Chapo" was found with the bodies. The Mexican government has issued a 2 million dollar reward to informants that help arrest  the 24 most wanted drug kingpins in Mexico.



"The note may represent a major change in the drugs war in Mexico which has seen 8,000 people killed in the past two years as drug gangs fight for territory amid government crackdowns."


The only change I see is the drug gangs showing the government in no uncertain terms that they are ready for a fight. Obviously not much of a change at all. The United States and Mexico's policy regarding the Mexican drug cartels' is like fighting a fire with gasoline instead of water. What makes it even more insane in this case is the fire hydrant full of water is two feet away from the gas, and it costs less too.
