Cartels buying weapons thru State Dept program

Post by Skydivesnake »

'The report is corroborated with an interview with Phil Jordan, former director of the DEA in El Paso, who stated that the stockpiles, which include anti-aircraft missiles, are transported from a Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. The consultant added that the criminals set up (phony) companies to buy weapons directly through a State Department program.'

...

'...it was found that a private company is taking advantage of the Direct Commercial Sales program under the U.S. State Department, which allows businesses to purchase high-power weapons which the U.S. exports worldwide. “According to these reports, some Mexican businessmen who took advantage and authorized the use of that mechanism, arranged for these weapons to be delivered to the drug cartels,”...'

Something needs to be done about this before something really stupid happens.
(I could care less if Mexicans have a bunch of guns. I'm talking about the organized crime that is thriving in the borderland. They will get assault weapons from anywhere don't matter if it's Arizona or Africa)

The US Department of Injustice threatened to prosecute members of a well regulated militia if they helped keep Mexican organized crime from crossing to this side of the border. Draw your own conclusions.

I think the Swiss sell military surplus weapons to citizens directly, we (State Dept/Hillary Clinton) sell directly to cartels, They got all the discount coupons

Within the Executive Branch, the Department of State is the lead U.S. foreign affairs agency, and its head, the Secretary of State ... The current Secretary of State is Hillary Rodham Clinton,


@HRClinton
Please remind me about this good gun tracing idea Holder didn't know about when you announced it in 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWckd5P3Fuw" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

While @DarrellIssa and @ChuckGrassley @Gopoversight investigate @USDOJ & #ATF while @StateDept (Hillary Clinton) makes *Direct Commercial Sales" to drug cartels of body armor, full auto guns, grenades, night vision equipment ... etc etc ... it's documented, if people will look before it's shredded ;-)

Here's the plan
If State Dept & ATF arm cartels which overthrow Mexico Govt, then Mexico takes back Texas, and current executive branch (President/USDOJ/ATF/Hillary/State Dept) doesn't have to worry about Perry/Patrick/Dewhurst running ... "rlol"

Excellent link - there is a wealth of other information behind that link, then if you then follow that one to narcosphere and then onto the US dept cables.

From a timeline perspective, wikileaks show cables that describe ordnance going into Mexico via El Salvador in early 2009, and they must have already traced Mexican-found, US-supplied firearms back through the State Dept program by then, yet Clinton/Obama/Holder kept pushing the 90% myth throughout the remainder of 2009, and Calderon's address to Congress was in May 2010.

So, of the numbers of firearms traced back to the US (I forget the number, it's around 5,500) - how many of those were fast&furious and State Dept Direct Commercial Sales guns ? It would be ironic if the 90% number could now be reused, but to actually relate to the percentage of the 5,500 guns that were US govt sanctioned purchases :-)

Ironic that this same administration blocked the import of Korean-surplus M1s to the US.
US Taxpayer funded M1s that were given to Korea

Yes, Some guns had to go in from South of Mexico (Honduras etc) and some from border States

That's why Mexico started building a Fence on their Southern Border http://nation.foxnews.com/us-mexico-bor ... ern-border" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Seriously, I think there's a lot more to this Obama, Hillary, Holder, Zeta plans to fight the Mexican Govt overthrow business than we know.
