The War Next Door: Mexican Drug Cartels Kidnapping Bus Passengers For Gladiator-Like Fights To The Death…

Nah, we don’t need a secure border.

(Houston Chronicle) — The elderly are killed. Young women are raped. And able-bodied men are given hammers, machetes and sticks and forced to fight to the death.

In one of the most chilling revelations yet about the violence in Mexico, a drug cartel-connected trafficker claims fellow gangsters have kidnapped highway bus passengers and forced them into gladiatorlike fights to groom fresh assassins.

In an in-person interview arranged by intermediaries on the condition that neither his name nor the location of his Texas visit be published, the trafficker also admitted to helping push cocaine worth $5 million to $10 million a month into the United States.

Law enforcement sources confirm he is a cartel operative but not a fugitive from pending charges.

His words are not those of a federal agent or drawn from a news conference or court papers.

Instead, he offers a voice from inside Mexico’s mayhem — a mafioso who mingles among crime bosses and foot soldiers in a protracted war between drug cartels as well as against the government.

If what he says is true, gangsters who make commonplace beheadings, hangings and quartering bodies have managed an even crueler twist to their barbarity.

Members of the Zetas cartel, he says, have pushed passengers into an ancient Rome-like blood sport with a modern Mexico twist that they call, “Who is going to be the next hit man?”

“They cut guys to pieces,” he said.

The victims are likely among the hundreds of people found in mass graves in recent months, he said.

    I spend time on some narcoblogs that document the violence in Mexico and the sheer brutality of these cartels, the Zetas especially, is astounding.

    They started the beheadings after the wonderful Muslims started posting their videos and they’ve gone even farther down the path.

    Islam is by far the biggest threat to our nation but something needs to be done about our borders and these cartels. Amazing that this shit is going on right at our border and the piece of shit in the WH does NOTHING about it.

    Islamification of Mexico?
    Beheading and atrocities weren’t daily occurrences outside of the middle east until Muslims began entering Mexico (to get to the US). Now in southern Mexico there are large numbers of people converting to Islam.

    The Mexican drug cartels are no different from Al Quaeda.

    You think things can’t get much worse for the Mexican people with the hangings from bridges and murders everywhere.

    I swear if I were a religious person I’d say these are the end of times.

    “Islamification of Mexico?”

    ———–

    Reports are that Hezbollah are operating in Mexico in concert with the drug cartels.

    We should show no mercy to this enemy.

    There’s no doubt the cartels are looking to Islam for ideas on depravity.

    Why does Zero do nothing, or even supports it like through the gunrunning that is being revealed?

    Because he’s supporting Narco-Communists, along the lines of FARC.

    http://lamecherry.blogspot.com/2011/06/project-gunrunner-what-it-really-was.html

    excerpt:

    “You will be hearing “something” in the next days about Project Gunrunner and it’s manifestations in various forms under the Obama regime. You will hear of this perhaps in bits in a hearing held by Republican Darrell Issa…, and as this blog has stated it does not trust Darrell Issa in the least as he worked a deal out with Val-erie Jarrett to keep Obama around, if they threw Attorney General Eric Holder out as a scapegoat….

    Barack Obama in Gunrunner was spreading the same revolution which Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers mentored him in, in the second phase, which communist Frank Marshall Davis began. If you forgot, black liberation was imported from South America, into black communities, from latino Marxists who were educated in this right out of the Kremlin.

    Just as Obama is busy assisting the Islamocommunists, he is busy assisting Latinomarxists for his FDR perpetual rule. There is no madness in this method. It is pure cut throat policy with the clearest of purpose and Americans like Germans aghast at Hitler, can not believe that leader Obama would be carrying out something so homicidal on a genocide scale, and yet look at the piles of dead Muslims from secular Islamist Obama and look at the piles of dead Americans and Mexicans from comrade Obama….”

    Geez!

    I just read the complete posting at Lame Cherry.

    It’s all coming together.

    What the hell are we supposed to do?

    How can we stop that SOB?

    @Regolith–

    Mad Max and Thunderdome came immediately to my mind, too.

    @SickofObama–

    You don’t need to be a religious person to sense that the end times are near. It’s just a lot better if you are.

    Sickofobama,

    Please pray for our country. There are about 5 scandals below the surface that can stop Zero and Co., but only if public outrage becomes great enough. We got a glimpse of one in March/April when Zero’s ineligibility made them so nervous they released a forged birth certificate that was detectable within hours and has been confirmed so over and over by graphics experts. Corsi and WND will continue to keep that one hot.

    Unfortunately Lame Cherry is correct in that Issa is not our friend. But there are many good citizens working to keep truth out there. God willing, their efforts will produce greater effects.

    Borders are safer than ever. Americans are just prejudiced and ignorant about Mexicans. La la la, I can’t hear you!

    I’ve been to Mexico twice and enjoyed it both times, but will never spend another tourist dollar in that sinkhole of a country.

    To all the clueless brainwashed out there who support (drug) prohibition note that you are supporting this organized crime. Want all this to stop? Call for an end to the war on drugs! These criminals would have to find real jobs the next day! This is where America would be if (alcohol) prohibition had never ended. Difference is there are a dozen INDUSTRIES who now rely on (Corporatism) government to support their industry by keeping marijuana illegal through constant bribes by lobbyists to their congressmen. Big Pharma, paper, tobacco, alcohol. logging. textiles and Big Oil all have products which could be made far better with hemp/pot. Stop voting Left and Right to support your own slavery; vote Libertarian (or Ron Paul) to end Americas slide into totalitarian socialism. WAKE UP!!! Left or Right equals slavery; Libertarianism equals traditional American freedom!!!
