2-For some time the DEA has warned that the major high drug traffic route is through MEXICO!!!!! not by air or sea.

3-600 million is a lot but it is far,far less than they were getting. It will be hard to replace to, with the new extradition treaty with Columbia many of those financial sources are gone for good. Especially when those Mother FARCers get a lot of help from uncle Hugo in Venezuela.

For details you can read the DEA 2006 report at the white house website office of drug control strategy. Not sure of the link, I read a hard copy from a friend.
Are you suggesting that we are winning the war on drugs?
