ROGER NORIEGA of InterAmerican Security Watch warns that the new president of Mexico is making a “short term pact with the devil” that allows narco-traffickers to continue their work in exchange for a decrease in violence. Chairman of the US House Subcommittee on Europe, Eurasia, and Emerging Threats of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs DANA ROHRABACHER makes the case for why the US should stay out of the conflict in Syria, arguing that there is no side that the US could support that would not turn against it in the long run.
