Number 3 Leader of Los Zetas Says Mexican Cartel Bought Guns From US Government

The number three leader of the Zeta Cartel Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar in Mexico told authorities during a recent video that the cartel’s guns were bought in the United States and rival cartels were buying guns from the United States government.

In an interview recorded with officials from Mexico’s Federal SSP (Ministry of Public Safety) and distributed to the Mexican media, Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar “El Mamito” revealed that the Los Zetas obtained their arms from the U.S. and that the rival Gulf Cartel was buying guns from the US goverment.

A top Mexican cartel leader told authorities that the cartels are buying guns from the US government.
Extrano’s Ally reported:

Jesus Enrique Rejon Aguilar, a chief of the Zeta Cartel, says “all of our guns are bought in the United States.”

Briefly quoting the Borderland Beat report linked above: “Rejon Aguilar confessed that Los Zetas have “buyers on the other side” (in the U.S.) who are U.S. citizens that acquire the arms and sell them to Los Zetas. He also admitted hearing stories that the U.S. government was selling weapons.”

The “other side” would be the Zeta’s greatest enemy, the Gulf Cartel. And the Zetas territory fronts on the US border between approximately Brownsville and Eagle Pass, Texas. The Zetas are trying to penetrate Juarez, but have not managed to “capture the place” at this time.

And of course, they hear stories out of Texas; out of the Houston ATF office’s bailiwick, that the US government is selling weapons. Or causing weapons to be sold. Weapons that can be converted to full auto quite easily, using parts that can be made in almost any well equipped machine shop.

That sounds very much like something Senator Grassley and Representative Issa should look into. For another item badly in need of Congressional oversight, let’s go to another Borderland Beat report.

The Washington Times reported today that the gunwalker smuggling probe will expand.

This is supposed to be shocking news? This is just another means Barry is trying to fundamentally collapse the American Republic to make it a Marxist tyranny suitable to him and his continued hold on power.

This scam was designes not only to terrorize us into new radical rules like at the airports, but to also place gun control, if not bans, on the American people. Everyone should remember them talking about the drug cartel and all the Mexican violence and weaponry.

What they didnt say is that they caused it..they expected lives to be taken, the expected some of our people to be harmed, to get their agenda through to disarm this nation and place radical rules for the American people to have to endure. You know, sort of like the Underwear Bomber which lead to strip searches and scans and humiliation of the flying public.

THis was designed in the same way. What they never expected was that “whistleblowers” or true Americans, would not go along with it or become the fall guy for this latest treasonous act. This will only get bigger, and now they have video of Holder and Obama bragging about Fast and Furious and how they are going after drug cartels and illegal weapons..uh huh..

Melson just testified on July 4 secretly, you can bet Issa knows alot more than he is showing. And alot of agents are refusing to be the fall guy for this admin. Its going to be huge, people. This is going to be huge. This makes Nixon look like he was playing Romper Room.

Bear in mind, when you’re looking at this guy’s face, that this is the face of Evil. He is not a human being. He looks like one, but he is not. The Zetas routinely behead, gouge out eyes, remove still-beating hearts, and even flay alive. That face is not human.

So now the Harris County, Texas sheriff is feining shock, shock I tell you, over the number of drug cartel members operating in his jurisdiction? The sheriff must be as dumb as the rest of the people running Harris County. Remember, Houston is in Harris County.

And Houston, San Antonio and Austin (gateways to El Norte) are sanctuary cities. Governor Perry put the “Clamp down on sanctuary cities” bill into the special session, but the Hispanic Democrat Congressmen of Texas fought it tooth and toe nail claiming it would be racist for those cities to have to turn arrested illegals over to ICE. Nevermind that those very cartel members are hiding, in plain sight, in the barrios and neighborhoods of Tejanos. So what if a few legal Mexicans are murdered, we can’t have the police checking your legal status when you are arrested, if you are a Mexican.

Mexican drug cartels are run by confirmed liars. We don’t need the testimony of this animal to prove the case against Holder and the regime.

Since Holder is such a big fan of world courts, maybe he should get down to Mexico and represent himself.

I call BS on this one. The Zetas buy most of their weaspons from the Mexican authorities or in central America. Why not get the letest and best in fully automatic weapons such as the G36 from a Mexican armory rather than buy a semi auto from the USA?

This smells of a Holder deal.

I think this is about arming the bad guys by the US government so that the US citizenry begs for more government protection. Insane plan by the lunatics in charge. I hope Issa/Grassley do not let up.

Little known fact:
Sarah Palin actually taught these fine Mexicanos how to use the weapons and Michele Bachmann was on hand at every incident to pull the triggers for them. It’s not the Mexicans fault! Jail Palin and Bachmann for this travesty!

What makes all this worse? Thank you for asking. Not only does the feds, with the blessing of Obama sell weapons to the cartels, they also disarm our boarder agents just to make it even. The boarder agent gunned down by the drug runners was in a fire fight only armed with a damn bean bag gun. Who gave this order Napolitano, Holder, or Obama. Does it really matter, their all garbage.

#3 Militant Conservative,

Great find, I’m emailing that link with the following links,

Obama denies Holder or himself authorizing “ATF Gunwalking”. Obama also denies that he was informed about this. It’s from CBS, and the man conducting the interview is from Univision.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hIJzsFNkh5M&playnext=1&list=PL1E093E07A5B6902E

CNSNews put together a great video of Obama over the past two years on the Gun Runner scandal.

We have to get the word out through email since the Alinsky is surrounding the wagons to protect Holder and Obama.

In the words of Joe Biden, “This is a big f**king deal.”

Attorney General Eric Holder at the Mexico/United States Arms Trafficking Conference
CUERNAVACA, MEXICO ~ Thursday, April 2, 2009

(Eric Holder bragging about Project Gun Runner)

Last week, our administration launched a major new effort to break the backs of the cartels. My department is committing 100 new ATF personnel to the Southwest border in the next 100 days to supplement our ongoing Project Gunrunner, DEA is adding 16 new positions on the border, as well as mobile enforcement teams, and the FBI is creating a new intelligence group focusing on kidnapping and extortion. DHS is making similar commitments, as Secretary Napolitano will detail.
