MS 13 is not a street gang. It is a transnational terrorist organization. In fact, it meets the threshold of designation as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). The President may designate it as such and take action against it in Latin America, which is limited not just to law enforcement ops but military ops as well. Imagine the impact of US military conducting raids in El Salvador and killing the hirearchy in their homeland. It can be done. It is way more a threat to the USA than FARC. These are the guys who smuggle hezbo members across the border. These are the smuggling routes that will be exploited to conduit a dirty bomb into America. I am not saying that MS13 will dirty bomb us, but they can easily transport the means into our cities.

Nice summation!

Yes it is. They are organized, deal drugs, kill, rob, intimidate, and shoot people etc.

Just like any other common street gang. Their MOs are exactly the same as the others.

Excellent idea. I think in the end, they're nothing but punks and would crumble like 3 day old bread if put under this kind of pressure.

Good summation.

That he continues to leave the Southern border wide open remains proof that when GWB says he cares about the WOT, he's blowing presidential smoke up our asses.
