The Nightly #World #News Report of the 4th of November 2012


Dear Followers,

One thing that I want to address today is how drugs cartels plague the nations. Just as there is a war of terrorism; there is a war on drugs. These cartels and their operations are among the cruelest of armed groups. Two nations have reported the strain of their works today namely Brazil and Mexico. I believe the war on Drugs can be great like our work against terrorism.
In Mexico it has got so bad. The Zetas Cartels have seized control of the entire state Coahuila. I often hear of their work of mass murders, leaving their bodies in odd places like schools. Notable massacres have been on the 24th of August 2010 and the 25th of August 2011. In both occasions more than 50 people were killed; 72 on the 24th, and 52 on the 25th. They dominate on all levels of criminal activities, running a multi-billion dollar drug operation. They have also been known for extortion and kidnappings.
In Sao Paulo, Brazil, 10 were reported killed including a suspect of the operation. 66 pounds of Cocaine were confiscated as with 29 other suspects and more. This world is roaring with news to review whether action is needed to be acted upon as Kuwaiti security forces acted upon illegal protests and more things around the world.
