That's the problem with the decapitation strategy, God how I wish we could use chemical weapons on the mother fuckers.
Amerimutts think they can fight cartels like they fight middle eastern terrorist groups, but cartels are basically companies. The only way to kill a cartel is through reducing it's manpower and crippling it's logistics and bottom line until it's no longer profitable.
Why can't Mexico just do what El Salvador did and open a giant prison in the middle of nowhere to incarcerate cartel members? I understand that MS-13 is more tame than the cartels, but still.
El Salvador is a smaller country where the president has more power. And ms-13 wasn't as filthy rich as Mexican cartels. It can be done in Mexico, but you gotta cripple the cartels first.
Because the government is the cartel. This administration and the previous has been the worst it has ever been in that regard our president literally went to kiss El Chapo's mother hand.
It would take them attacking US citizens on mass or killing the president o algo, because sure as hell it would stir up nationalist sentiments here and it might eventually devolve into syria below the border (not that it isn't already)
It's absolutely going to boil over reaching as far as Colombia. Here in my country a migratory alert was emitted just moments after the operation because a lot of people are gonna flee Mexico and cartels are gonna use that as an opportunity to further infiltrate into other nations.
