Mexico's Poor Trading Machetes for AK-47s


Growing guerrilla movement in Guerrero state ensnares peasants in drug trade and violence. Mexico's newest insurgency is no ordinary guerrilla movement. According to secret Mexican government documents, guerrillas of the Popular Revolutionary Army are helping protect poppy production in one southern state in exchange for weapons from two Mexican drug cartels. While past guerrilla movements have been involved with traffickers in Colombia and Peru, this marks the first time an anti-government insurgency has been drawn this closely into the drug trade in Mexico. It presents two problems for the Mexican government: Drug operations are being protected by increasingly well-armed guerrillas and peasants; and the drug cartels are helping strengthen the fledgling anti-government insurgency.

Refined uranium found in Turkey weighs grams, not kilograms


The refined uranium caught by Turkish police Saturday weighed far less than originally thought, an official source in southwestern Turkey said Sunday. It was originally believed that the Turkish paramilitary police had seized over 15 kg of weapons-grade uranium in the operation that also resulted in the detention of two men accused of smuggling the substance. The actual weight of the uranium turned out to be hundreds of grams, a fraction of the initial estimate.
