01/24/12 VIOLENCE TIJUANA STRATFOR'S PROJECTIONS MEXICO DRUG WAR 2012

Most all of the Mexican New sources are covering the recent Stratfor assessment of the drug war and what their analysts and experts are projecting for Mexico in 2012. Of course, the government figures of those killed in the past year(s) are still in question according to Zeta Magazine and their analysts and investigators, a point which Stratfor also covers.


But no matter which experts and analysts you tend to believe, it's always a good idea to read and listen to all of the interpretations of events I think. Also, looking through the headlines this evening, it seems quiet in our area which of course is good news, I personally experienced no problems traveling through Tijuana today. So for your consideration (if you haven't read it already) here is the report from Stratfor which everyone in Mexico is reading and I'll try to catch up with events in the next few days:
