You should interview El Gafe 423 he was Mexican sf during the hight of zetas. GAFE was the unit the zetas came from
Yes!!!
@@csalinas-sf6jg he couldn't find a better inside source
Pura gente del 423

That’s not possible
I feel like she’s overly concerned about semantics. After eradicating these pests, who the Mexican and US governments depend on to fill their pockets…. We can polish up the definition of what a “cartel” is. Remember… our government could stop the influx of dangerous people and drugs into this country in 24 hours. Our government encourages this activity and even arms the players.
This isn't SOUTHCOM this is a utube interview, this is exactly the time for semantics wtf.
@@ufc990 I think you may not have grasped the main point 😂 😂
I think she got lost in translation. I am a Spanish speaker and I understood what she meant but she made it sound like the definition was too important. She meant to explain that the drug trafficking was only one issue, the Cartels have diversified and a lot of they get profits from other crimes and controls within the communities they live in, they are now making money by being the government
@@diegonaranjo2425 thanks brother! I was probably reading too much into it
@@tenplus1025 No I got the point, you're obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed. Clearly didn't do too well in English.
Mexican special forces trained by American special forces
They have there own training now that was derived from training with more then just American special forces those boys are no joke.
Yo Gafe423 would be a great person to bring on but would be hard for the English speakers!
Use subtitles?🤷🏾
If they can elaborate on the Zapatista uprising, and what went down, that would be legit. Buuuutttt I've noticed that among Alot of SF or Spec Ops communities they can't really reveal Alot of details or where they were. 😬
Wow another great interview! I think she's totally right when she talks about big pharma and of course mainstream media is never going to report anything negative about big pharma Because that is 1 of their biggest sponsors! Watch any newscast and every other commercial is some pharmaceutical Watch any newscast and every other commercial is some pharmaceutical drug that most people probably don't even need! Anyway enjoying the show keep it going!
What she says about the precursor chemicals makes sense. Heaven only knows what chemicals get mixed in North Carolina’s research triangle….
She made zero since.
Explain your point of view.
@@ogboost7610 The point she is making is that the fentanyl chemicals might well not be coming solely from China. Understand?
@@amandalynch4019Of course, they aren't. Once you know what and how to make what you want you can source precursors from anyone that is willing to sell. Native reserves and Native Gangs are extremely involved in production and especially distribution of the end products. Its an epidemic on the Canadian side of the Border.
You finally interviewed someone with a universal perspective on this subject.
I would like to learn more about her work.
Please try and get someone who is from MORENA to explain the 4th transformation movement in México. 🇺🇸 🇲🇽
I agree and will add one of the more intelligent guests. Many times I find this channel hard to watch due to low caliber guests spouting wiki / narco blog bullshit of the week.
Best episode to date.
She said a lot of nothing except “a model”
Ok cool los zetas was a model of providing muscle for protecting contraband shipments and violence of action
@ogboost7610
If you are looking to hear the standard propaganda of Mexico is a Narco State, I would recommend listening to Anabel Hernandez.
I used to listen to her interviews until I learned more about the special interest groups that have operated in México for a very long time.
@@incredible3214
Nah you stopped listening to Anabel because she pointed out the obvious. How your beloved 4t emperor has links to the cartels.
It was convenient to hear her out when she talked about the opposing side, but suddenly becomes a liar when she investigates your side.
@@roberthipolito1351
Wow! You must be psychic or an idiot.
If anything, she’s defending the cartels just probably paid off
Excellent job from the interviewer - good questiosn - lets his guest speak - adapts spontaneously to the conversation
Nah, 250,000+ Americans died by the end of 2023. She's almost at half. 24:25
that's bullshit, Sinaloa Cartel didnt follow their model. Everybody knows Sinaloa cartel relies on admiration of the ppl not on fear hence their longevity and power. You dont hear many ppl praising zetas in songs, but most songs are dedicated to Sinaloans because ppl see them as saviors in a world where government doesnt do shit when there is a need. There was even a parade at chiapas of regular citizens welcoming Sinaloans From Mayo Faction, because they fought away cjng who were extortioning regualr ppl. And despite ppl asking government for help they never showed up. Therefore, I can vouch Sinaloa is one of the safest place for decent people. However, there are regulations for sketchy ppl, any type of activity considered "corrientada" "low quality behavior" bears its corresponding consecuence. In other words, those who are planning to come to sinaloa with mischevous deeds in mind I suggest you otherwise, no one is sleek enough for the scope of THE PEOPLE.
That is very true in Sinaloa if your a regular working individual you dont need to worry at all. Now if your doing anything ilegal than yea prepare to meet the cartel. Now with Mayos arrest who knows how Sinaloa will end up.
@@ivanaguirre8641 Many people forget to mention that Mayo turned himself in, he was never “caught”. & Mayo wouldnt have turned himself in if he didnt already have someone in place to take over his role.
Thank you for this fearless report!
The Biden admin will need to explain this shit for years, and hopefully spend years in both American and Mexican prisons.
The US Supreme court just allowed the way
We have the power to now stop all of this
Serious question. How do u expect to do that?
What does the Biden admin have to do with this? Lmao Mexican cartels have been smuggling billions worth of drugs into the US since the 80s, The US government has always been aware of the corruption in Mexico they don’t care they support the corrupt Mexican government ,neither government wants cartels to go away
I lived in the RGV in 1989-90, and what she says is true. Because of the culture and economic model that is more feudalistic than anything, the cartels in Mexico more closely r3semble the Sicilian mafia and organized crime in the US in the 1950s and 1960s. Not exactly, but that is somewhat the idea.
That's more or less what they used to be like. Back then they'd mostly solve things with money or blackmail, and would leave the local populace alone.
After the zetas they've evolved into paramilitary/insurgent groups. Commiting atrocities, using violence to solve problems, fighting the military head on.
They conquer territory and then profit or extort from every legal and illegal business within the area. They tax drug loads or migrants passing through the territory. This is why controlling the border is so crucial to profits, power and success.
It really is feudalism specially nowadays that they are fighting for even smaller portions of territory.
Just in the Tamaulipas border you have 3 CDG cells who fight against each other and the CDN
And as with feudal lords it is like flipping a coin, some might be "benevolent" and just stick to illicit business but you can also get sociopaths who will extort the shit out of mom and pop shops. For example in my city a few years back the local boss just asked money from bars and nightclubs but then he got caught and the next guy started doing kidnappings as well as extorting businesses
For example CDG Matamoros is the "main branch" and get income from smuggling (drugs and people)
But CDG in SLP which is further south secure the routes but also control street drug dealing as a side income, and then the regional bosses in the cities and towns might diversity further, involving themselves in kidnapping, prostitution and even cattle rustling.
Mexico-such a wonderful country to share a border with!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
you moved here
Very hard to listen to, couldonly pick out bits and pieces of what she said. Gave it 20 min and gave up.
Very good episode.
Really?
I guess my proximity to the border and exposure to news , i want my 50 minutes back
Werent los Zetas us operaritives trained by the USA ??
amazing episode...
Why didn't she just say extortion instead of 'rent'? Or do the Z own the buildings & the people are really paying rent? Lol.
Side note- DFW in the house!!!
They claim that they "own the location"
I'm so sorry but your high energy, quick speaking is difficult for me to understand.
So I apologize.
Wat ??
Try interview about U.S.A Cartels rather Méxicos something different
Great episode but I caution her reliance on NGOs for research, they have their own agendas too. NGO has become a dirty word sadly. Btw, you need to have someone monitoring the video & audio if you are going to be doing this type of thing. I’m sure her Earings are lovely, but yeah. 😂🤪
Thanks for the interview. Great job. Please follow up her interview with an interview with journalist Anabel Hernandez. I would like to hear her insight about the incoming Mexican president. ✌️ Peace.
lol these people need more information. We Mexicans know the real deal of how it really happened. She need to learn how to tell the story. She mixes stuff with other stuff. We know details and now lots of them are even doing podcasts here on RUclips telling stories making books and knowing by first hand. These people gives misinformations.
The cartels work similar to the mafia. But in my opinion the cartels are way worse
That's literally what they are at this point or what they have been showing for the past 2 decades, but at exteme levels.They have operated mainly as racketeering extremists. These criminals no longer function mainly as drug cartel organizations but have now exploited their own people or country through extortions of small to large industry companies.
The mafia don’t kill like the cartels because they are not animals lol However they are way more organized because to be entrenched and thriving in a G7 nation like Italy and fully surveillanced place like Europe means you have serious power. In mexico its easy to hide in the Jungle and kill indiscriminately
She’s not talking about a group, she’s talking about a model.
Bruhhh back then zetas were everywhere lol even in Sinaloa the zetas were there .
1:39 how we label México in GENERAL. People have mistakenly labeled Mexico, with little to no credibility. An underrated country to say the least.
These cartels are no joke.
@@JAMBI.. Mijo stop watching fox News
@@gusbatcho96 elaborate...
@@JAMBI..they never do
onlyfans link? andy?
Touch grass
All is never what it seems to be ! A Very interesting interview.
I was in highschool on a border town during the ZETAs era !! Los zetas ran every thing first ever “ Navy seal type cartel “ military outfits & guns …ohh and trained 😂 the one calling all the shots is in jail aka oziel Cardenas
Guada whoo??
Guada-yo mommaa
The cartel pistoleros became more professional and like actual paramilitaries or mercenaries with military expertise
14:27 lmao bro los zetas is EVERYONE now 14:51 yes bro
AR
Wow. Really didn’t know how to break this one down I don’t wanna offend anyone and voice my opinion But it seems like she’s splitting hairs. This is very common for people better paid by an organization to defend them with providing a layer of protection between them and their customer.
Change the title it don’t make sense how the los zetas 😅
Its hard to listen to her and follow her story, or at least the story of the groups she's been researching. 7:00 - 10:00
Im the only one who is seeing the mexican kevin james?
Is their a full uncut interview?
When crap RUclips channels (like this one) have no creative content, they resort to talking about ancient crap, Los zetas are extinct. There old news, no one is México talks about them anymore. Stop bring up old crap. No one cares.
Thanks!
Hey, thanks for watching! Appreciate your support!

I want taco crickets.
Basically, major criminals now in Mexico have evolved to extremist racketeers.
