		<description>Thanks :)

You might like an article I wrote about Los Zetas a couple of days back.  If you don&#039;t know who they are, they&#039;re a US-trained elite Mexican commando group who went rogue and joined the Gulf drug cartel.  Now they&#039;re in a shooting war with RPG launchers a half mile south of Laredo, TX.

		<description>Jeremiah - thank you for posting the link!  I read it and look forward to poking around your site.  This article, I did not write, but instead copied from &#039;The Nation&#039;.  While I did provide a link to the source, I forgot to include the author&#039;s information.  

I&#039;m in the midst of a new essay to be posted Monday morning and newborn twins, but I will be reading up...the first piece about Machette 13 is chilling.  Any other reccomendations or &#039;read these first&#039; from your site?</description>

		<description>You may be interested in an article I wrote about the origins of Machete 13 and their connection to Al Qaeda.  They are not a gang at all but an insurgent group operating within the United States.

I also differ with your assertion that they did not originate in El Salvador but Los Angeles.  As a discrete entity, maybe so.</description>
