NarcoWar.com and DefNac.com (for Defensa Nacional) is devoted to archiving and analyzing news as well as acting as a vehicle for commentary on the Mexican Cartel Wars. The DefNac.com portion of the site is an ongoing analysis of Mexico’s national defense policy and capability; or Order of Battle.
The ongoing struggle of the Mexican State against the transnational criminal organizations is fundamentally changing the social and economic fabric of Mexico and its people. This current social upheaval is bordering on becoming the latest Revolution in Mexico’s long history of social reform. Whether it eventually reaches the point of fundamental changes in Mexico’s social structure is still to be determined, but significant societal changes have already occurred.
Unfortunately separating fact from fiction or conspiracy theories from reality is difficult, at best, because those producing analysis and news have their own agendas to contend with. News outlets sell their wares through sensationalized headlines and, unfortunately, most readers or viewers don’t get past the sensational headlines.
Also missing is critical thinking of the information around us. We are too happy to accept the news and information delivered to us without looking to see who and what is driving that data.
We will strive to document, analyze and comment as Mexico continues its struggle to eradicate the mafia scourge permeating its social sectors today. Our agenda? Just our point of view of what is going on. But we are cognizant of the fact that our point of view may not be correct, or the right one so we want your participation.
