Not trying to read all that wordy copsplaining bullshyt. Did you see the movie or did you actually watch it?
The main point of the movie were the CIA agents using Kate and Reggie for legal cover to run an illegal covert operation to destabilize the Mexican cartel in order for the Colombian cartel to regain influence over the drug supply. If you actually believe with that “heroic intervention” angle and it takes crime to commit crime narrative, then you are gullible or lack comprehension. “Don’t play the drug game” when all of the above players have a dirty hand in the scenario. And again, you named yourself after a 90s kingpin- stay square behind your computer living vicariously behind your screen name, bc you comment like your trapped in your own virtual reality in your own mind. Dude thinks the movie was about the DEA and DOJ protecting citizens from the drug cartel with the “ends justifies the means” rhetoric, when they premise is the government being complicit in intervening with drug aid. This is how I know you didn’t watch the movie - troll talking points. They weren’t helping - they were impeding the investigation which is why the Phoenix PD who Kate met at the bar was caught with a band that they allegedly seized from the money laundering arrest. None of what you said applied to this movie, Just admit that you watched the trailer and nothing more. Did you get this movie confused with “Traffic”??
At least a simple search would helped you to avoid looking loud and wrong at the moment.
“Matt, and by extension the CIA, felt that the Medelin cartel was much more organized and less mercurial than the Mexican upstarts operating on the US front porch. Matt's mission, which I believe he tells Macer, is to destabilize the Mexicans enough to allow the Columbians a comeback and that letting Allejandro loose will accomplish this.”
“But that's not what the task force is about. At all. They're not extraditing the brother who lives in Mexico (Guillermo) so they can put him on trial in the US; it's so they can torture him. They don't even try to arrest the guys running the tunnel; they just go in "weapons free" and kill everyone. Kate's not on the task force to lend any expertise, arrest anyone, or help build a case that can be brought to trial; she's just there as a hollow figurehead so the CIA can legally operate on domestic soil. The real order of importance of the characters is Alejandro --> Josh Brolin --> Kate.
From Kate's perspective, Alejandro's way is no better than that of the cartels. It's just a descent into chaos, a turn away from civilization.”
In this movie your beloved American law enforcement Heroes were nothing but hired hands for the cartel. 2022 and actual adults think the Big Bad USofA 3 letter agencies aren’t employed as an extension of the cartel security forces for Mexico v Colombia to protect and serve the base depending on the base of operations that best serves their individual interest. This ain’t a Marvel Multiverse Cartel Cartoon - clueless Kate is basically the Ethan Hawke with Alejandro as Denzel from Training Day. Everybody else is expendable with the DEA acting as Alejandro’s personal secret service so that he can move tactically with a legal front. Alejandro and the DEA work for the Colombians. Hence There’s a line in the movie where someone calls out Medellin, and he tells her “You should move to a smaller town where the rules of law exists. You will not survive here. This is a land of wolves and you are not a wolf." But I’ll let your American imperialism think that it’s about good cop saves the world by doing bad things” sicario scenario. Like a common war tactic isn’t the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
