The drug war in Mexico has been an everlasting crisis that has not been resolved just yet. In the documentary, “Cartel Land”, it goes deeper than what you hear on the surface. Many people do not even have an idea close to what is happening in Mexico. Directed by Matthew Heineman, he gathered the idea from the Arizona Border Recon in a Rolling Stone article. He also received an article on Jose Manuel Mireles and the Autodefensas in Michoacán. The director found this interesting and wanted to…

of the country is another objective. The last objective is preparing military forces to repel external aggressions. My hidden responsibilities include making sure the Sinaloa drug cartel continues to run smoothly. My strengths include having the power to play both sides of fence with negotiations with the president and the drug cartel. I speak with both sides so I know the inner workings of both sides and how they move. My one weakness is I can be exposed by either side if I don’t play my cards…

Juaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera, mostly know to the public as El Chapo which means shorty in english. Born on April 4th, 1957 in La Tuna, Badiraguato, Sinaloa, Mexico. He's mostly know for being the guy that escaped prison 2 times and maybe some just know his from his job which is peddling drugs to different countries, specially The United States of America. Most people think El Chapo is just a regular guy. But what they dont know is that he's actually a psychopath. In the psychopath test he…

El Chapo a hero or a Villain? Why is it that many Mexicans and, in particular, Sinaloenses (Mexican’s that originate from the state of Sinaloa) mystify the figure of Chapo Guzman? Why is it that a high percentage of them resented his capture and celebrated his escape? In a recent survey that was conducted by Univision (a very respected and trusted source of Hispanic news), they asked Sinaloenses; "With whom would you associate el Chapo with?” and the vast majority responded with characters from…

Joaquin Guzman and Pablo Escobar share similarities and differences in their childhood, prime time, business strategies, and criminal activities. El Chapo’s exact date of birth is still unclear to this day, but two dates are given from different sources which are April 4th, 1957…

The principle conflict of the Gulf Cartel and immigrant populations throughout Tamaulipas is based on the tans-border identity that become increasingly prevalent for human trafficking. The identity of Mexican or Central American women is part of the underlying problem of border identity that has become exploited and commoditized by the Los Zetas cartel. This type of profiteering defies the national borders of Mexican sovereignty and the immigrant issues that define identity in these dire…

For example, as Dudley documents, a well-organized ambush by the Zetas against a Sinaloa group in Guatemala left 60 dead. The Zetas rely on their paramilitary structure and the violence it presents rather than their roots in the community for their efficacy. By contrast, drug-trafficking groups such as the Sinaloa, La Familia, and Tijuana cartels attempt to integrate themselves socially, politically, and economically into a community, winning the hearts and minds…

that same kilogram at retail prices. Narco-terrorist cartels can earn billions of dollars. A case in point is the Sinaloa Cartel leader Joaquin el Chapo Guzman who, according to Forbes, has an estimated fortune of 1…

Drug lords and cartels are a major problem in modern society, they distribute drugs into communities and sometimes turn these areas into warzones. They have a huge amount of power, even over some country’s governments. They control a lot, drugs, guns, entire cities and countries. There is some things being done to solve this problem, but so far it’s barely made a dent in the trade. It’s still running strong after all the attempts to shut it down. There are so many people killed each year by not…
