The big news in Mexico for the past few months: the ongoing turmoil
resulting from the Iguala Atrocity-a massacre/kidnapping/ official
corruption trifecta in southern Guerrero state.

Protests have been going on throughout Mexico and abroad, along with calls
for the president to step down. In Guerrero itself, demonstrators have been
smashing and burning buildings, occupying city halls and radio stations,
plundering supermarkets, and the state governor resigned.

It's a horrible case, and apparently only the tip of the iceberg, both in
terms of the tragedies themselves, and the evidence of official corruption.
And it raises this question: how much of this is going to be imported into
the United States in the next few years?

A summary: On September 26th in Iguala, police and gang members, working
together, attacked college students from the Raul Isidro Burgos Rural Normal
School in nearby Ayotzinapa and others bystanders, killing six. Then, 43
students were turned over to the criminal gang called Guerreros Unidos, an
offshoot of the Beltran Leyva cartel.

Not that it justifies the attack, but the Ayotzinapa school is crazy even by
Mexico's standards of politicized teacher colleges-it's an all-male, Leftist
institution run by student/activists. [At college of missing Mexican
students, history of revolutionary zeal, By Tim Johnson, McClatchy, October

fire, causing the death of a worker.

In what appears to be a longstanding tradition, the Ayotzinapa students
routinely hijack buses in order to travel. The students in this group were
on such an outing when they were attacked. [In 'untamed Mexico' a mass grave
and a challenge for a president, By David Agren, Correspondent Whitney
Eulich, Christian Science Monitor, October 12, 2014]

In early October, mass graves were discovered, and it was immediately
assumed that at least some of the students had been buried there.

But none of the DNA matched that of the students. It turns there are various
mass graves in the vicinity, with burned and dismembered bodies. So this is
not an isolated case.
