Cartel Ambushes Mexican Soldiers near Texas Border
Breitbart ^ | 18 Feb 2019 | Ildefonso Ortiz and Brandon Darby

Posted on 02/18/2019 10:39:31 AM PST by detective

An ambush by gunmen from a faction of Los Zetas killed one Mexican soldier and injured two others in Nuevo Laredo. Three attackers working for a convicted terrorist also died in the incident just south of Laredo, Texas.

Mexican military officials have not released any information on the attack, however unofficial sources with direct knowledge revealed to Breitbart News the attack took place along the highway that connects Nuevo Laredo and Monterrey. Moving in various SUVs, a team of gunmen with the Cartel Del Noreste (CDN) faction of Los Zetas attacked a convoy of soldiers patrolling the streets of Nuevo Laredo. The shooters killed one army lieutenant and injured two others.

Citizen journalists using the Twitter account @Lpueblo2 or La Voz Del Pueblo (“The People’s Voice”) warned residents away from the Palmares neighborhood when the ambush began. A video recording shared by @Lpueblo2 captured the sounds of the clash as the two sides exchanged gunfire.

No border crisis?
If only we could put Nancy Pelosi and a few of her children in a steel cage by that border for a few days. And tell the Zetas to take some pot shots at her.

Is the CDC cartel the one we are allied with or is it the opposition? Have they paid Pelosi et al or are they just trying to horn in on our DEA approved cartel?

Don’t you remember what Piglosi said in the past???? All we need to do is cut the grass shorter on the U. S. side of the boarder and then we can see what is going on.

Now I see! And to cut the grass, you need more Hondurans! There are some jobs that Mexicans simply will no longer do.

You think it’s an Emergency now.

The day will come when US Troops will have to go into Mexico.

The time is now.

And also clean up the border towns where the Mayors are taking money from the Cartels and then let them operate in the USA.

These Mayors need to be arrested for treason and aiding and abetting the Invasion of the United States

31,174 slayings in 2017 along the
border. Juarez (where Macho Beto
wants to tear down the wall) averaged
200 murders per month in 2018.

Yep - “If we can save even one of these animals, who might have a 1 in 28,000,000,000,000 chance of reforming, we need to let them all in....”
