I have been doing some study on how this gang rose from the seeds of a guerilla warfare group in El Salvador during a 12-year civil war, into one of the most organized street gangs today.

Some refugees that fled the civil war were members of a street gang "La Mara" and yet others were Salvadoran guerrillas were known as "Salvatruchas" and since they were up against the Hispanic Gangs of the US and Mexico, the formed the Mara Salvatrucha (MS13) gang.



The gang has a strict formation. Local groups are split into "cliques", which then break down into smaller groups, similar to the "cells" used by terrorist organizations. They now have added members from many other South American or Central American countries, like Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Mexico.

Other signs of the gang are the addition of the number "13", Sureno or Sur
(Spanish meaning Southerner) to their street "tags".



They are very active in Central America, the US, Mexico, and even in Canada. MS13 members are known to be heavily involved in many illegal activities, but especially smuggling. Due to the connections to El Salvador and the guerilla warriors of the civil war, they have access to military weapons making them very dangerous.

The connection to the war on terror is that some members of Al Qaeda have been meeting with MS13 gangs in Mexico and further south. The implication is that Al Qaeda might be trying to use the groups smuggling connections to move terrorists, weapons, or explosives into the United States.

Actually, this may be a very true statement, due to the fact that street gangs and other gangs of any origin would do anything is the "price" is right, not caring what the purpose is as long as they are not directyl related to terrorist syndicate, last thing a gang needs is to be aiding, that will onyl bring heat upon them, if linked. Like I said, the posibility is great, due to fact that AQ (Al-Qeida) is widely dispursed throughout the world and looking for ways into Western countries, one to infiltrate the borders for future smuggling of terrorists and whatever means they may have to equip their cause.



Of course, this is the imperialistic way that the US has been taking since at least WW2 (if not before), so no one has to be surprised... but still I think everyone of you should stop for a minute and ask themselves that question: What rights do WE have as a nation to get into another countrie's business to directly reshape it's security/economic policies and to even intervene in some ways into their politics??? Who are WE to do such things? What gives Americans (or canadians, or britons, and so on) the JUSTICE to tell others how to deal with their public issues... to even do the job for the others, and this without even asking?


Actually since 9/11, its not just the duty of US and its allies, but the UN's responsibility on the war on terrorism. Any country that can not effectively control its borders and allows known terrorists or their organizations to exist on thier homeland, looking for a way to infilitrate the US or its allies, has every right to state that something should be done and if the country can NOT eliminate or control, 90% they call on the US and it allies for support...good example is Saudi Arabia, they kicked the US out said they had things under control and it wouldnt happen there, then in Sept bombings started happening, now they request the aid support of the US to help defeat and eliminate the threat in their borders...NZ just recently filed a report that they have concrete proof that terrorist are harboring within the country, and called for US/UK help.

Just my input.

Having already corrupted members of the very armed forces sent to catch him, Cardenas used a confidant in Mexico's Special Forces to help launch the Zetas, a band of brutal enforcers, according to an unclassified DEA report. This private army known for military precision and terror, at least in Mexico, was to serve as a hit squad to kill rivals.

Cardenas went too far in 1999 when he and a gang of henchmen caught an FBI agent and a DEA agent driving through Matamoros with an informant in their car. An armed standoff ended with the agents and their snitch fleeing back to the United States.
Los Zetas ... Sinaola Cartel Al Queda MS13 Can we say AMERICAN GOVERNMENT !!!
Cardenas went too far in 1999 when he and a gang of henchmen caught an FBI agent and a DEA agent driving through Matamoros with an informant in their car. An armed standoff ended with the agents and their snitch fleeing back to the United States.

Cardenas, who quickly landed on the FBI's most wanted list, was arrested in 2003 by the Mexican military after a shootout. But even from inside a Mexican prison, Cardenas ran the cartel and directed a turf war that tore apart Nuevo Laredo, authorities say.

It wasn't until 2007, when he was extradited to Houston, that he lost power.

Under heavy guard, his location being kept secret for his own safety, Cardenas is believed to be cooperating with prosecutors in exchange for leniency and other considerations.

‘A shell of its former self'
Stratfor, an Austin-based global intelligence company, contends the cartel can hardly survive the pounding it has taken on all fronts, and that the feared Zetas have founded their own crime syndicate that works with the Gulf Cartel when it is convenient.

“After nearly three years of bearing the brunt of Mexican military and law enforcement efforts, the Gulf Cartel is now a shell of its former self,” contends the 16-page report.

But some federal agents have said that while the Zetas have emerged and are a great threat, the dope will continue to flow and the cartels will fight to persevere.

“They are not going to go away quietly into the night,” the DEA's Campbell said. “They are going to try and establish themselves as permanent fixtures.”
its really silly .... seriously .. why would they u be hiding him. You think he would help them !?>!! HAHAHAH YOU must be crazy .... Corrupted American Government.
I mean seriously "
