Mexico in Peril? Help for the Mexican People?

People, there is a grave problem affecting our southern neighbor. It is the drug wars being waged by the cartels and narcos of mexico and south america. Every day, an average of 6-10 people, and occasionally alot more, die because of drug war and violence. I live very close to this mayhem. I live on the border city of Juarez, Mexico. If you have the time to become a little educated on the subject, research it for a bit. You can find some info. by simply googling the subject. Il explain as best i can however. The drug cartel of Mexico have been waging a war between themselves and against the people of Mexico. The police forces are outnumbere, weak and barely holding on. Mexico is losing! The country is spiraling to its death. Soon to be controlled by drug lords. Today i learned that the top police commisioner in Juarez has been forced to resign. The cartel threatened him, and his family, with horrible deaths. They threatened to kill 6 police officers every hour untill he resigned. He did as they asked. Rumors state that him and his family have seeked shelter here in the U.S. They have been taken into a witness protection program for an undisclosed amount of time. Yesterday, the Mayor of Juarez narrowly escaped an asination attempt. An SUV full of his body gaurds were slaughtered. The Mayor has now since seeked refuge here in El Paso supposedly. Rumors say elsewhere in the U.S. It has gotten this bad people. How long before the U.S. does something? Mexico has pretty much exercised every possible et of theirs. Federal military troops have been deployed to Juarez, with no effect. Mexican troops are outmatched by the cartels! It is my belief that we really need to intervene now. There is talks about Mexico requesting aid from the U.N. I believe this is a good sound move towards the betterment of the situation. Given our current problems here at home, i understand if the U.S. just cannot simply engage in warfare with a drug cartel. But at least we should support them with humanitarian help. Training for their military. Anything to help the people. I fear for my family that lives there everyday. I dont know if the body that shows up in the evening news in Juarez will be a relative or not. If you could just see what the news stations here in Juarez broadcast. Its so appaling and horrid the images they get. Violence so close to the U.S. No more than 30 min. away. Yet unable to stop it. The cartels have beenthreatining the schools of children now! They have threatened to bomb and shoot up the elementary schools. Warning of murdering school children! Parents have stopped sending their children to school. Parents go and walk their child to school, and will wait all school day outside the school doors to walk them back home. All this fear, oppression, death, no more than a simple 30 min. drive away. It is just so close to home, yet not ONE mention of this has been made in any major news broadcasting station. The best it ever gets is local news. Im asking. What can be done here? Militarily, Politically, Humanitarian help, anything what can be done? People, i know im not the best person in the world to be saying what should be done. But is no one else with me? Does no one agree? Really is such horrid lives acceptable so close to home?
