The federal government has posted signs along a major interstate highway in Arizona, more than 100 miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border, warning travelers the area is unsafe because of drug and alien smugglers, and a local sheriff says Mexican drug cartels now control some parts of the state.
The signs were posted by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) along a 60-mile stretch of Interstate 8 between Casa Grande and Gila Bend, a major east-west corridor linking Tucson and Phoenix with San Diego.
They warn travelers that they are entering an "active drug and human smuggling area" and they may encounter "armed criminals and smuggling vehicles traveling at high rates of speed." Beginning less than 50 miles south of Phoenix, the signs encourage travelers to "use public lands north of Interstate 8" and to call 911 if they "see suspicious activity."
Sounds more like a real western reality show...
Then again, you wonder why they don't do something about it.... the illegal drugs are in competition with our CIA...unless they are in a partnership, explaining the Government non-action.

Oh yeah - here we go - just as in the past.... Big questions about US Gov involvement - that is the only logical answer - financing CIA operations as well as feathering pockets as in the recent past.

QuoteA recent Bloomberg report revealed that major U.S. banks have knowingly financed Mexican drug cartels and facilitated money laundering without taking any action to stop it. And then there are revelations, even open admissions that U.S. troops in Afghanistan are not a eradicating opium crops, but growing, gardening, and "tolerating" them. Drugs from these crops are being shipped into the United States with little being done to stop their flow. This points to the sad fact that those in power in the United States, including the CIA, have driven the drug trade, not slowed or stopped it.

Note that the writer of that article had his office destroyed - went to a foreign country where he was poisoned then I think it was to Canada to recover as well as having been accused of being a CIA insider.
