Bin-Laden-Like U.S. Navy SEAL Team Could Take Down mexican Drug Kingpin 'El Chapo'


Seth Cline at www.usnews.com offers an interesting piece on the possibility that U.S. Navy SEALs might be used to capture an elusive Mexican drug lord named "El Chapo" Guzman.

Guzman, who presides over an estimated $1 billion drug empire as head of the Sinaloa cartel, has repeatedly escaped capture since breaking out of prison in 2001. His continued elusion of Mexican authorities has apparently frustrated the Pentagon enough that it has discussed a raid targeting El Chapo with Mexican President Felipe Calderon.
