The drug cartels in the U.S. may be joining forces to fight the U.S. government and using advanced weaponry to do it.
These gangs are notorious for being violent against each other but the U.S. government is now their common enemy.
“What we’re seeing is cartels consolidate,” Ammon Blair, intelligence consultant and senior fellow at the Texas Public Policy Foundation’s Secure & Sovereign Texas Initiative, told the Epoch Times. He says that the cartels have “military-grade weapons and equipment, including advanced surveillance technology.” This includes “undetectable drones, military-grade encryption built into their own cellular networks, and access to an Israeli Pegasus spy system that can break into any cellphone undetected.”
Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond validates this problem.
“What we’ve observed is that coordination between cartels,” he said. “This is dangerous business.”
They are fighting to sell drugs to American children, which has made them rich. The Trump administration cannot solve this by simply closing the border and making ICE arrests. They may have a real fight on their hands, a war not just on the border but within.
Arresting dangerous people may not solve the problem since the cartels can use drones to delivery drugs undetected and the drones “can be armed with explosives and deployed for spying.”
