Re: Feds allowing drug smuggling?

[Guest guest]

Say it aint so.

What we ought to do is use our drones and just wipe out the cartels.

First it was giving guns to violent foreign gangs. Now it seems the feds allowed

tons of drugs in too.

People are shocked and surprised??? Come on now... It's

pretty common knowledge that this sort of thing has been going on at

least since the early days of Viet Nam...

U.S. federal agents allegedly allowed the Sinaloa drug cartel to

traffic several tons of cocaine into the United States in exchange for

information about rival cartels, according to court documents filed in a

U.S. federal court.

The allegations are part of the defense of Vicente Zambada-Niebla, who

was extradited to the United States to face drug-trafficking charges in

Chicago. He is also a top lieutenant of drug kingpin Joaquin

" Chapo " Guzman and the son of Ismael " Mayo "

Zambada-, believed to be the brains behind the Sinaloa

cartel.

The case could prove to be a bombshell on par with the U.S. Bureau of

Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives' " Operation Fast and

Furious, " except that instead of U.S. guns being allowed to walk

across the border, the Sinaloa cartel was allowed to bring drugs into the

United States. Zambada-Niebla claims he was permitted to smuggle drugs

from 2004 until his arrest in 2009.

No, it really isn't a surprise. It is upsetting that government would be that corrupt and incompetent, though. Still, nothing surprises me regarding the border in this day and age. I'm just waiting to see if there will be a Reichstag moment that will force the government to get serious about controlling it.
