Escalation in Mexico Drug War

Ten Mexican police officers have been detained in connection with the torture and murder of 12 federal agents during a major escalation in the drug war.

It's not a 'war' in the classic sense of engagement because there are no rules to justify treatment of prisoners. The only warfare taking place is what turf wars the Mexican military allows cartels to wage against Mexican citizens because political agencies are either unequipped or on payroll. I would call this Mexican situation part of the War on Terror and send National Guard to defend the border then nuke the hell out of those cartel bases.

But no, pop culture says these are poor victims of American imperialism and you best claim de mafias because if you don't Christians are fools waiting to die like de dirty prey dogs.
