* Washington Post Foreign Service * Sunday, September 8 1996; Page A01 * The Washington Post * * Due to their new 'Mexicanization policy': * Mexico became the main gateway into the United States for illegal * narcotics, with the amount of cocaine making the journey climbing to * an estimated 210 tons last year. * * Mexico's drug arrests plunged nearly 65 percent, from 27,369 the year * before the policy changes to 9,728 last year, according to data that * the Mexican government supplied to the State Department. * * Cocaine seizures in Mexico were cut in half, dropping from more than * 50 tons in 1993 to slightly more than 24 tons in each of the last two * years -- the smallest amounts since 1988, Mexican government figures * show. * * The GAO report charges that Mexico's greatest problem is, in * fact, the "widespread, endemic corruption" throughout its law * enforcement agencies. Earlier this month, in an indictment of his own * department, Attorney General Lozano fired 737 members of his federal * police force -- 17 percent of his entire corps -- saying they did not * have "the ethical profile" required for the job. In a recent meeting * with foreign reporters, Lozano said it could take 15 years to clean up * the force. * * In November 1993, President Clinton signed Presidential Decision Directive * No. 14, shifting U.S. anti-drug efforts away from intercepting cocaine as * it passed through Mexico and the Caribbean, and, instead, attacking the * drug supply at its sources in Colombia, Bolivia and Peru. The President himself ordered them to stop checking!!! This is in the same leadership vein as Reagan declaring himself a "Contra". And why did President Clinton change strategy? He didn't have much choice. The Mexicans didn't want to work with us anymore. We greatly ****ed them off. U.S. law enforcement literally knows no limits. * |
