Today Mexico is the world's largest narco-state, worse than Colombia. In 2007 the dead of the war between cartels have been 2700, yesterday announced that in the first eight months of 2008 has reached 3,000 dead. Mass executions, severed heads, real battles with weapons of war, money that pollute rivers public life: that is the source of this war totally ignored by the Italian press. Mexico is currently a hell whose population is drowned among drug traffickers, the economic crisis and parts of the state shown accomplices of the drug cartels. Thus 40% of the population (equivalent to the entire population of Spain) weigh seriously considering leaving the country, ruled by the neoliberal right and filoestadounidense of Felipe Calderon, who is acting tough and unsuccessfully to Once you have leeway with drug money.
One in five Mexican states that a drug kingpin known personally, and for four out of five drug trafficking is part of the national culture. Bands like "Tigers of the North" or songs like "Contraband and Betrayal" are landmarks of a genre that wins: the narcocorrido. The traffickers have to a saint protector, Saint Jesus Malverde, a native of Sinaloa. But the drug culture is not just a genre of entertainment comparable to our neomelódicos. One out of every ten Mexicans said to have been the victim of a case of drug-related violence, one of three known to any victim.
are impressive data that give a measure of how difficult it is oriented in a spiral in which he dropped one of the most extraordinary of the world, since the Colombian cartels began using it in the 80's as a transit, and more later, on January 1, 1994, due to the entry into force of the FTA with the United States, a kind of colonization económica del país, que se tradujo en un desastre económico, la ruina del campo y la pérdida de puestos de trabajo.
Los 14 millones de mexicanos que se han visto obligados a emigrar desde entonces y los miles y miles de muertos en las guerras entre narcos son prueba del fracaso de un proyecto neoliberal de país que debería abandonarse cuanto antes. Sin embargo, el neoliberismo, que ha machacado literalmente la vida de una generación de campesinos mexicanos incapaces de competir contra las ayudas y más ayudas que recibe la agricultura estadounidense, y que los empuja a emigrar o a apuntarse a la mano de obra del narcotráfico, aunque sólo sea como contrabandista o como carne de cañón, no es sino una de faces one of the worst moral and material crisis in the history of this country.
Already in the 20's, at the time of prohibition in the United States, Mexico experienced an increase in crime linked to alcohol smuggling. Then, to the 70, there were still always something to smuggle marijuana and tulip north. The current phase of the drug in 80 starts and evolves until it reaches huge numbers: today 60% of all cocaine consumed in the United States comes or goes through Mexico. From 94 onwards, the NAFTA Free Trade Agreement with the U.S., became the catalyst of the present situation. The drug was used alternative to depopulation of the countryside. As a result of all this, today we are experiencing a weak economy in a state equally weak, which makes the drug income are key to master, through the branch, the economy and the politics of the third most populous country the continent, after the U.S. and Brazil. The Mexican War and the transformation of one of the top 12 economies in the world today a narco-state is perhaps the most underrated news media system and not Italian, but worldwide.
