Before you jump back with some daft posts copied and pasted, think about first hand knowledge. Out of the mouths of people who happen to be from there (and surrounding countries) Mexico, Columbia etc have had 10's of 1000's of Federales, army and US forces operating in them for decades and they've not so much as even reduced production, shipment or consumption! Not a dent! The difference in this senario is (imho) that they have never put the cartels under designation before…… What you have written (and I agree by the way) could have been said for Muslim terrorists in Afghanistan, certain parts of the Middle East like Iraq, Hamas etc Once the yanks designate you a terrorist organisation that’s a whole other ball game…..as in, first and foremost, no country on planet earth wants anything to do with you….they won’t sell you a bag of crisps ! Then, if you are a country harbouring these organisations there is a very real chance the United States is coming to take over your country if they take a notion ! The last thing the Mexican president wants is a cruise missile coming through his bedroom window ! Edited January 21 by WILF 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Families stay with the incarcerated. Kids and women leave daily to go to school, work or buy supplies to bring back for them to sell inside! More street food in those prisons than in all the streets of Vietnam Quote Link to post Share on other sites

These countries thrive on the money.. especially the politicians and hierarchies. The normal bloke from these countries, chews the coca leaf like we sup a pint after work. It’s a massive part of their culture (I play pool here weekly with mates, hard working lads who finish work and then stuff their cheeks). So the plant is going nowhere.

You have to understand these countries/cultures to be able to make a judgment. Would I go, yes, would I be going into the barrios (neighbourhoods) alone? Not a sniff, not without someone known there. Life is cheap in some places and El Salvador is one of them. Plus, if you don't speak Spanish you're wide open, then again even if you do, you are wide open. To boot, you'll be labelled a "Gringo" (Yank). This brings it's own problems, especially if you can't explain that you hate Yanks as much as they do Most of my friends from these countries will always have two wallets on them when out and about. One to give away if necessary (usually with about 50$ in there) and one that is hidden and will have their cards etc. I've heard of Mexican locals being shot in Mexico city because their "fake" wallet only had 20$ in there. How true I can't say but the people telling me these things are from Mexico etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After all, if you are the president of some dirt poor South American shithole and by default probably living like an emperor, then you ain’t going to want 101st Airborne turning up and throwing you out to get a new job as a postman ! Look at Saddam, one day he has a palace……the next he is hiding in a hole in a farm yard and getting done amongst the pig shit ! Nobody wants that kind of heat, if America decides you are finished then that’s your lot…… In the 3rd Reich they used to call it “Working towards Hitler”….he need only utter the words and everyone would scramble around trying to keep him happy…..my humble opinion is, there will be a lot of scrambling going on in these South American country’s administrations.
