U.S. officials are reportedly disturbed by the Mexican army's inability to wage unconventional warfare against narco terrorists and call them "virtually blind" on the ground.
"The army has never worked in urban operations against drug trafficking, in urban cells," said national security specialist Raul Benitez. "It's the first time it is engaged in urban warfare. It has to learn."
LAT: "The army too often relies on numerical superiority over intelligence and has frequently fallen back on time-worn tactics, such as highway checkpoints, that are of limited use against drug traffickers, especially in cities."
