2. Anyone who exercised approval authority for any aspect of this operation
should be extradited to Mexico as conspirators to murder.

4. Mexican drug lords - Which deserves more scrutiny
This story is a travesty.  It makes AG Holder look
incompetent.  It should be investigated.
But also consider this:
A few months ago, Wells Fargo, the acquirer of Wachovia post
2008 crash, settled charges that it had LAUNDERED more than
380 billion dollars in Mexican cartel drug money in the years
2004 to 2006 when Wachovia was stand alone.
$380 billion in drug money laundered.
That is the fuel for the ongoing murders and rule of terror in
Mexico by these drug lords.
WF paid a fifty million dollar fine and disgorged 111 million
in earnings.  In the settlement, WF said they had done nothing
wrong but that they would never do it again.  No person went
to jail.  No person was held to account.
The former CEO of Wachovia during the time period was G.
Kennedy Thompson ... former head of the Advisory Board to the
Federal Reserve.  He got a multi-million dollar exit package
to go away.  He is living in complete freedom.  This makes AG
Holder look corrupt.

5. And this was before we knew Holder was briefed/involved just like the acting director.

Now with more "justification" of course.
