Hacktivist group threatens to start a war against a deadly Mexican drug cartel
TAGS: South America, Protest, Drugs, USA
In an attempt to save one of its own, the hackivist group, Anonymous threatens one of most notorious Mexican drug cartels, Los Zetas.
In the latest video released by Anonymous, the group demands the release of one of its members who was kidnapped during a protest in Veracruz, Tamaulipas.
“You made a huge mistake by taking one of us. Release him,” demands a man in a Guy Fawkes mask made famous by the movie “V” for Vendetta.
The masked man goes on to say, “If not, the names and addresses of corrupt police, taxi drivers, and journalists, among others, will be released. It won't be difficult; we all know who they are and where they are. "
Many intelligence experts believe if Anonymous keeps its word the situation in Mexico can only get bloodier.
According to the Mexican government from December of 2006 to the start of 2011 more than 34,000 people have been killed as a result of the continued violence, drugs, weapons and human trafficking.
The latest incident of violence occurred in Boca del Rio where 35 bodies were dumped on the main highway during rush-hour.
The drug cartel situation has become so unmanageable by local authorities that the Mexican government has called in the Military to assist in breaking up the drug cartel operations.
The Anonymous video addressed the concerns of the Mexican people by saying “Veracruz, Mexico and the world are tired of the criminal group the Zetas, which is dedicated to kidnapping, stealing and extortion."
Even though Anonymous isn’t a violent group they have waged a war against Los Zetas.
"We cannot defend ourselves with weapons, but we can with their cars, houses, bars," the message adds, referencing assets owned by cartel supporters.
The hacktivist group singles out the media outlets in Jalapa, Cordova and Orizaba, which according to the video “keep giving shitty information to the honest authorities like the Military and Navy.”
Anonymous has given Los Zetas until November 5 to release the kidnapped individual.
This date commonly known as Guy Fawkes Day also marks the day that the hacktivist group is going to attack Fox News Channel's website.
According to the Huffington Post an official with the Veracruz state attorney general's office said the office couldn’t validate the video's authenticity or the kidnapping case.
Will Anonymous make the fifth of November historic? Stay tuned.

Herman Cain paid to settle sex scandals with employeesNo real politician would be complete without a sex scandal and Herman Cain is no exception. His unconventional campaign clearly made him popular. Otherwise who would care that allegedly he was involved in inappropriate manner with his employees? US Election 2012 |

Thorium - the safer nuclear power?Solar, wind, and biomass have been touted as viable alternative energy sources to fossil fuels. But what if there is a nuclear energy source that is safe, green, and abundant? Thorium could be that source. |
Illegality is part of the business model for drugs to increase profit margins, so Anonymous is part of the business model ensuring this illegality by fighting. Legalizing could at least civilize the mega-business of drugs a little for all involved, as it is "too big to die" anyway. We don`t need any more blood shed here only because the righteous claim to fight sin.

Anonymous is a fracture of our intelligence agencies, and more and could be anyone of them, appear to be above the rest, untouchable for the most part. When they do catch them it is always little children, odd. Sounds like another Pegasus think Tank Project gone cyberspace.
.
Anonymous is not civilian, but far more of course above us all. Anonymous feats where far to vast and encompassing with media and marketing organized by stealth for just a bunch of puberty victims gone wild, unbelievable -there is more.
.
I have brain damage, my brain rewired itself -still is, past ten years. I see things and this government, USA.gov, has fractured on many fronts and the outcome will be decided by those most organized in and by science I hope they are right and they can win, we can save ourselves, this world from itself, from us.
.
Their is no magic wand, their is no genie in a bottle, but their are stars in the skies at night that can fly and this has been us all long, for such a long while. Now it is time for us to wake up, but to what, to serve, to be served, or educated into greater than what and who we are? Yes, rewrite me into a better story.
.
I know what needs to be done, sometimes I am so awake I can see with my eyes closed, but this is all a mistake what we have gotten ourselves into and we must do what is right for their are those of higher science beyond our reach far above us all who demand change or devastation like countless civilizations like ours before to dust, or if lucky ruins.
.
I know what must be done, I look up into the stars, it is us out their looking back at us we call aliens, but not at all as you think, space command trek. The only thing I wish to do for the rest of my life till I die is serve in total obedience for the construct of all sentient kind. We need out, we need to help, we need to make solid physical connect, we need change or this night consumes us, enslaves us into their obedience.
.
We will listen, We will learn, and Awaken lucid or die trying.
What ever happened with this?
