Reporting on the Organized Criminals
There is a DEA or DoJ report floating around that I can't find on the internet (the websites of both agencies/departments are quite a bit lacking), but has earned a lot of press in Mexico. Evidently, it talks up the possibility of Chapo using terrorism and the increasingly heated battles between Mexican gangs for US territory. Without reading it, it's hard to know if the quotes are taken out of context, with important qualifications removed, or if they were major parts of the report. However, if the suggestion is that Chapo is going to turn into Escobar and the warfare in Juárez will soon arrive on American streets, that seems a bit overwrought, as is the case with much of what comes from the DEA.
