what is important to understand, if it weren't for the cartels and the cartel in the fall and they would have a tough road from mexico north. it is like a soprano's type of organization. standing on the street corner and all you want to do is have the grease. they are generally not political or ideological. they are there to expedite illegal activity. my concern as evidenced by what happened the other day is that the working relationship, the familiarity between governments like venezuela and cartel organizations like the zetas who are military organizations will become more intermixed. it will be more profitable. you have an odd situation where you have petrodollars' supporting a lily pad in venezuela being pushed forward by narco dollars. it is a dangerous situation and what we saw last week wasn't something that sort of was viewed very highly along our screen. all we need is for something like this to succeed by pick your terrorist working his way through the southern border to be a wake-up call to the nation. god forbid it should never happen. >> would you like -- >> i joined dr. sca

the number one national security threat are the criminal cartels, drug cartels that operate in mexico. that should give us really a warning that we have -- we really do have a tremendous crisis on our hands because those people are at war, not only with mexico, but they're at war with the united states. and lastly i wanted to point out that there are several things that are being done but the problem still exists. people are crossing into the united states. border patrol is doing the best they can, of course local law enforcement, the sheriffs are doing as good a job as they can and they mentioned the problem that you have talked about, about how the drug cartels want to infiltrate this side of the border and actually control regions. it's pretty simple what they do. they own land on one side of the rio grande river in mexico and they want to buy or steal or confiscate land in texas side of the rio grande river, that way they can move their drugs and smuggling operation from one land they own to another land they own across the river. and when we get in that situation where the drug c

we correctly focused on central america in the 1980s and cartels grew.fter he broke the backs of the major cartels, smaller traffickers developed an unholy alliance with the colombian and the peruvians also. as columbia squeezed colombian traffickers, mexican cartels filled the void. and as the metadata initiative begins to fight against those cartels, we see them moving into central america. we still face security threats from drug cartels, guerrilla movements, organized crime and trafficking networks. but our job is to stay ahead of the emerging threats. and right now, i believe that a central america. the president made that clear last march when he announced his central america citizen security partnership. our tactical challenges to provide additional resources for central america law enforcement and security programs, like the governments more closely together in regional efforts, engage other partners and supports our essential plan colombia admitted that initiative and caribbean basin programs. and we very much appreciate the committee support in

is somebody else behind these cartels?s it just mexico, or do think it is coming from the middle east or south america? guest: it is a great question. i do not think that the cartels, the insurgency in mexico, are trying to overthrow the government. in other words, i do not think they want to lead. host: set up their own government? guest: no, they want to render the government of mexico useless, and that is a political motivation. the absence of the rule of law and governments in mexico is a political act. so, they are clearly trying to disrupt and render the government of mexico ineffective. so, that is why i say this is an insurgency, and not just the cartel's running of drugs. the other part of that question was whether or not i think there is any evidence of it this is a larger political movement from the middle east or something like that. we do know is this, through venezuela, he go chow less -- hugo to chavez is allowed in venezuela to be a conduit to terrorist activities. there are flights from iran to venezuela b

that cartel is the zetas, one of mexico's most notorious and violent cartels. complaint says arbabsiar told the informant that arbabsi arbabsiar's associates in iran had discussed a number of violent missions for the informant and cartel to perform including the murder of the saudi ambassador. if this is proven true, it would not be the first time the iranians had been accused of going through surrogates to carry out a terrorist or assassination plot. the two deadliest to date, the 1992 bombing of the israeli embassy in buenos aires, argentina, which killed more than two dozen people and the 1994 bombing of the jewish community center in buenos aires that killed 85 people. in both cases intelligence official its believed iran worked through operatives tied to hezbollah to carry out the attacks. iran has denied involvement in those plots. then you've got more isolated targeted plots, some right here in the u.s. u.s. diplomatic cables published by wikileaks say in 2009 a hit man was hired to kill a prominent iranian dissident in california. that dissident was a r

he asks his contact in the drug cartel if the drug cartel is good with explosives. the guy from the cartel replies, yes, he's great with c-4 in particular. the iranian guy then says he's interested among other things in attacking an embassy of saudi arabia. what the iranian guy does not know at this point is the guy who he's meeting with from the drug cartel is an informant for the u.s. government. he's a person who was previously, quote, charged in connection with a narcotics offense by authorities of a certain u.s. state. in exchange for his cooperation and various narcotics investigations the state charges were dismissed and now paid by law enforcement officials to be a rat. that's not the term they used but that's what he is. a paid informer inside the mexican drug cartel. we have those apparently in american law enforcement. so the iranian guy is meeting with a d.e.a. informant in this mexican drug gang. the informant reports back to his handlers at the d.e.a. an iranian guy approached him about attacking a saudi arabian agency which point the d.e.a. calls in t
