JALISCO NEW GENERATION CARTEL AND THE PENDING SIEGE 

I've been away from this blog site for a month or so for two reasons. 1. I was sick of watching and talking about the events inside the US. 2. I was helping a few friends as we concentrated on events in Mexico. It's been that topic of Mexico that has compelled me to finally write this blog post. In the past, I have addressed the terrorist cartels in Mexico. As a matter of fact, I've been doing so for over ten years. My predictions of things in Mexico getting worse continue to come true, and one particular video validates my opinion. If you have not seen the latest CJNG "Show Pony",  my nickname for the clip, video, here is one of many links. https://youtu.be/UK23lJl25s0

The day after this video went viral, I gave an interview to a longtime friend, Jaeson Jones. Jaeson is a subject matter expert on the Mexican cartels and a good friend. He writes for Cartel Chronicles and our interview was based on analyzing this amazing clip. When it was all said and done, one fact was crystal clear. CJNG was quickly evolving into something exponentially more dangerous than just a drug cartel.   CJNG is now the real indicator of Mexico's predicted, by me that is, slide into instability. Now, I could go on and on about the growing capabilities of this particular cartel, but that's nothing more than hollow calories. What I want to explain to my readers is where this is heading. I know, it's not a topic new to my rants on this blog site, but it is the most important aspect of this latest video. 

Where is this heading:

Jaeson Jones is an absolute authority on Mexico's cartels. He doesn't have to waste time on hyperinflating his bio, like most do. When he begins to speak of their operational goals as well as their relationships with rival cartels and Mexico's authorities, you know right away he's the expert you need to listen to. We have known each other and worked together for years. What I have always tried to give Jaeson is an understanding of the strategic issues at stake and how they may threaten the stability of Mexico and the United States.  That synergy has worked well for years and it worked to perfection in our interview. Siege. The topic of a pending, "siege" event was the cornerstone of my analysis in my interview with Jaeson's. So, having said that, let me give you my opinion of what is most likely going to take place. The short version; a siege event is going to take place in Mexico, and so, let me paint that picture for you. 

In 1985, the drug kingpin, Pablo Escobar paid a Columbian Guerrilla movement, M19, to attack The Palace of Justice in Bogata Columbia. Why? Because the evidence required to extradite Escobar to the US was in that building. Are you at the, " so what", point yet? Hold on. Let me continue. The attack on Columbia's Supreme Court was a bloody event that was watched live, around the world. When it was all said and done, the rumor the military had taken action without consultation with Columbia's leadership became, well............more than a rumor. It was an international disaster for Columbia. It set into motion a series of events that resulted in key government, military leaders being taken into the courtroom decades later. Just the visual of military, armored vehicles having to attack the nation's Supreme Court building was devastating to Columbia's image. Do you see where I'm heading yet? Let me keep pushing. 

AMLO, Mexico's Revolutionary President is going to have someone walk up to him and whisper in his ear, just like the US President on 9-11. The message will be one that stuns this poor old man. " Sir......CJNG has attacked and is holding...x.... you fill in the blank. what the location is and when it takes place doesn't matter. At that point in time, AMLO's, "hugs not bullets", will disappear, and most likely in a pool of innocent blood. He will be faced with the same reality the Columbian President was given. AMLO will be forced to allow his military to retake the target. Now, when you look at the configuration of CJNG's, "elite unit", understand this. The task of retaking a target will require a 4 to 6 to one ratio with superior weapons, armor, and air. It will be an event that will have a thousand times more coverage than the attack on Columbia's Supreme Court. Social media will rule the narrative long before the facts begin to trickle out. The world will be watching, and AMLO will be forced to lead. Depending on the target, the neutralization of the attacking force may take days. Now, think in terms of continuous coverage for more than 24hrs. As the world looks on, the experts will come climbing out of the woodpile. " How could this happen?" " I told you so!" " The US cannot just stand by any longer!" The crisis in Mexico will lead to a crisis in the US, a crisis that like everything else in DC, will turn into a political football. " Send in the Warthogs......... we could take them out in 10 min!" Thousands upon thousands of mindless comments will come streaming in, and all the time, the "experts" will be running to the green room to give their opinion on the major networks. 

It's coming: 

Look.  I could go on and on, but let's get something clear. The boldness of this particular cartel is growing by the day. As Jaeson and I were talking about yesterday, the members who are in this video are now rockstars amongst their fellow killers. Secondly; you don't invest and build units like this one just to make Show Pony videos. This cartel is growing into the most powerful, nongovernmental force in Mexico. Recruiting, something AMLO said he would counter, is going through the roof. Everyone wants to be an elite unit member, and CJNG is where it's at! 

It's coming folks. That day is coming to Mexico and it may very well change the course of Mexico's future. Here is the scary part, and it's a comment I've made before. I'm not sure that's not exactly what AMLO is looking for. 

Oh ya. One last point. Don't think for a minute this type of unit might not make it's way across the river. There is not a port of entry along the US's border with Mexico that could stob this level of force. The clock is ticking......siege.....it's coming!
