by Michael Snyder,End Of The American Dream:
Selling illegal drugs to the United States is one of the central pillars of the Mexican economy. I understand that it isn’t a pleasant thing to think about, but it is true. The cartels that control the flow of drugs into the U.S. have become exceedingly powerful over the years. The cartels essentially run much of the country, and collectively they probably possess more military firepower than the Mexican government does. The good news for the Mexican government is that the cartels are not united. They have always spent a tremendous amount of time and energy fighting one another, but if something occurred that changed all that, it would certainly be a very ominous development.

Have we just witnessed such an event?
On Sunday, the death of El Mencho caused violence to eruptall over Mexico…
Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes, known as “El Mencho,” was killed in Tapalpa, Jalisco, Mexico on Sunday, Feb. 22, as part of a Mexican military operation. Oseguera was seriously injured in the shootout and died during air transfer to Mexico City. Six other cartel members were killed and two were arrested, Mexico’s Ministry of National Defense announced. Three military members were also injured during the operation.
The operation set off a wave of civil unrest, with vehicles being torched and gunmen, believed to be supported of Oseguera, blocking highways in a more than a dozen states.
His death is not going to do much to disrupt the operation of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel because it is highly decentralized.
But it could potentially unite the cartels against a common enemy.
Without a doubt, the JNGC is going be seeking revenge, and there have beennumerous reports of gunfirein and around Puerto Vallarta within the past 24 hours…
