Collateral Damage: Bloodshed in Guatemala as Cartels and Street Gangs Wage War

A detailed - and sobering - look at the drug war devastation occurring in Guatemala.

Bloodshed in Guatemala as Cartels and Street Gangs Wage War / Council on Hemispheric Affairs: "Once wracked by a devastating civil war, and with a reputation as one of the hemisphere’s worst human rights violators, Guatemala now faces an escalation in violence and firmer entrenchment of organized crime due to uncontrollable corruption. As evidenced by President Colom’s declaration against the Zetas, the “War on Drugs” must be discussed in the larger context of Central America’s struggle against organized crime."
