New Rebel Group Makes Threats in Mexico Denver Post go to original
Against a backdrop of escalating drug violence, a self-described armed rebel group has announced its presence in northern Mexico and is threatening to generate chaos by subverting the government from within and forcing out foreign investors.
In two communiques published on the Internet, a group calling itself the Armed Movement of the North rails against "the aggressions of foreign capital" and "the abuse and injustices of the current government."
Mexican officials downplayed the threat, saying that other than the two rambling communiques, the group remains unknown and its threats unverifiable. |
