Department of Homeland Security (DHS) warned Arizona law enforcement officials in May that Mexican drug cartels were deploying assassins to kill bandits highjacking their drug loads in the Vekol Valley, 70 miles inside Arizona. Then the federal government set up signs in the region to warn American citizens away from this area of U.S. sovereign territory.
That local law enforcement would be left to confront agents of a foreign cartel coming across the international border of the United States to carry out a deadly drug war on U.S. soil is further evidence that the federal government is not doing its duty to secure the border, said Pinal County Sheriff Paul Babeu.
“This is confirmed intelligence that Mexican drug cartels are now working in concert to protect their drug loads in the United States, literally, to send well-armed, military trained--even with ballistic vests--up to my county,” Babeu told CNSNews.com.
“This clearly is no longer a public safety issue,” he said. “This is a national security issue. The violence is bleeding into America and we must stop it.”
The DHS sent an e-mail on May 13, 2010 to several law enforcement agencies warning that Mexican drug cartels were deploying “sicarios” (assassins) into the western part of Pinal County, Ariz., to “take out” bandits that were robbing drug smugglers who had entered the United States from Mexico through the Arizona desert.
The e-mail was made public this past Friday, Oct. 15 (five months later), after local media in Arizona obtained the e-mail and questioned local law enforcement about it.

EXACTLY what does it take for the current administration to believe that this is a problem?? Armed and professional killers openly stating that they are in ANOTHER COUNTRY (the USA!!) to kill anyone (including U.S. citizens) who may interfere with a CRIMINAL ENTERPRISE?! I think its time for Arizona to form militias (large ones) to patrol these areas. I'm SURE there would be a LARGE number of citizens willing to volunteer.
