Imagine Delta Force Hunting Cartels 🤯

The discussion centers on a hypothetical scenario where Delta Force would be deployed against Mexican cartels, with experts drawing from real-world experience in operations against Pablo Escobar. The speakers highlight significant operational challenges, particularly the difficulty of trusting Mexican military or government officials due to widespread corruption - a reality they stress is not meant as derogatory but as a practical assessment. They also make a controversial comparison between terrorists and cartel members, arguing that terrorists are 'more respectable' because they fight for ideological beliefs rather than financial gain. The experts suggest that cartels are fundamentally different from terrorist organizations because cartel members are motivated by money, making them theoretically easier to turn or infiltrate through financial incentives. The conversation touches on the mistakes made during the Escobar operation, specifically criticizing DEA agents for taking celebratory photos over Pablo's body, which they view as a significant tactical and diplomatic error.
