Salazar on Mayhem

Ana María Salazar stops short of calling the recent violence in Mexico the beginning of an era of terrorism, but says the connections with Iran are worrying. Salazar also writes that Iranians have come to instruct in camps just south of the US border. While acknowledging concerns about the veracity of the info, she says all of the recent mayhem ties back to a deeper problem: 
The fundamantal problem is that, just as with all the crimes in this country, you can massacre minors, you can use car bombs, ad ou can take hostages, and nothing happens. Why then should we be surprised that terrorists come to Mexico to give classes, as is the case elsewhere in the world. Who's going to stop them?
