Poet calls on gov't to explain CIA, DEA presence in Mexico - Fox News Latino: "Prominent Mexican poet and peace activist Javier Sicilia has called on the government to explain the alleged presence of CIA and DEA agents in Mexico, where they reportedly are carrying out intelligence and police-training duties. ...
Foreign Relations Secretary Patricia Espinosa and Government Secretary Jose Francisco Blake should appear before Congress "to explain the matter," Sicilia said in a press conference here Wednesday, in which he expressed his movement's opposition to "the interference of Americans in the war against organized crime being waged in our country."
The presence of the CIA and the DEA is "illegal and unacceptable," the poet said, adding that it represents a clear violation of Mexico's sovereignty."

And sometimes I simply muse.
