Leveraging U.S. Intelligence to Defeat Mexican Drug Trafficking Organization

<p>According to the Mexican daily newspaper Reforma in 2009 there were 6567 drug-related homicides in Mexico with over 2100 of these killings occurring in the Mexican border town of Ciudad Juárez. Though in many ways this extreme violence has become the face of the drug war in Mexico it is arguably what is occurring below the surface that is of greater concern to the governments of Mexico and the United States.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
