Redlogarythm Guest on Bellumartis Podcast

 Our very own Redlogarythm will be a guest in a podcast with Bellumartis, who specializes in military and current geopolitical issues. It will go live tomorrow at 1930 hrs Madrid time or at 1330 hrs Washington time. He will be speaking on the evolution of organized crime in México since 2006, the reshaping of OC into criminal insurgencies, oil theft, Mexican white collar criminality and money laundering.

The violence of criminal organizations in Mexico is the main tool in the fight for control of the territory against other groups and against the State to expel it from the areas where they operate. Thanks to our representative of the group of investigators and journalists from @Borderland_Beat you will get to know the Mexican drug guerrillas, their tactics, weapons and best-known actions.

It will be in Spanish, but if you understand a little bit of the language, it will be well worth watching.

    1. Thanks for your comment, all criticism is always welcomed. I disagree with your point though. Guerrilla is a word used to label a tactic, a kind of special type of irregular warfare that can be used for multiple purposes: political one such the overthrown of a Government or mere economic purposes like it happens in Mexico were guerrilla tactics are used to take control of zones to channel drugs, weapons and migrants. The fact that the word "guerrilla" has been used to denominate political military organizations shouldn´t make you forget that its original meaning refers to a certain type of warfare tactic

    2. Thanks for your respond. Guerilla warfare is a form of irregular warfare in which small groups of combatants, such as paramilitary personnel, armed civilians, or irregulars, use military tactics including ambushes, sabotage, raids, petty warfare, hit-and-run tactics, and mobility, to fight a larger and less-mobile traditional military.

      Guerilla is a member of an unofficial military group that is "trying to change the government" by making sudden, unexpected attacks on the official army forces

      The definition of "guerrilla" says nothing of politics.

    5. @11.53. The definition of Guerrilla says nothing of politics? Guerrilla TACTICS aren't necessarily political- CJNG might use similar tactics to an Indiginous Union collective trying to prevent their land and rights being stolen by corrupt army forces, but it does not make them ''Guerrillas''. They just use the same tactics- the tactics a weaker force always use against a stronger, but ''Guerrilla'' still suggests an ideological opposition, right or wrong, against the state forces and their enforcers.
      Looking forward to it Redlogarythm

    6. I have only seen the term Guerrillas used to identify a political armed wing in Colombia. Everywhere else its a tactic i believe

    7. Exactly that is what I have been saying ! Guerilla warfare and a guerilla group are 2 different things

    8. @6.26. There were ''Guerrilla'' movements all over the world that go back long before the Colombian Guerrillas. I'm guessing the term became more used in the US during the fight against ''communists'' (pissed off starving peasants) which is why it's so closely associated with Central and South America. The Cubans who fought with Castro early 50s were termed Guerrillas at the time, for example. Fuck it, I'm a pedant...
