The Border Drug War Escalates
"It's Very Scary"

Lou Dobbs Tonight -- CNN -- December 5
Rep. Bilbray: The cartels are taking over the northern part of Baja and the border region mostly because we're allowing them to make money bringing drugs and aliens north and money south. It's very scary.
Wian: It's also another blow to President Felipe Calderon's war on drugs. 25,000 federal troops have failed to loosen the cartel's grip on huge areas of Mexican territory._While U.S. official continue to investigate the tunnel, Mexican law enforcement say they're determined to find out who killed the police chief. Anyone that dared cross the cartels, whether a citizen or public official, is risking his life.
Dobbs: No question about it. The drug cartel violence goes on, unabated and indeed is expanding assassinations, popular music groups there and vocalists, singers. Tell us what is being done about that now.
Wian: ..They are so brazen as to assassinate him next to his wife as she slept and his children are in the house. It shows how they operate with impunity in Mexico.
