The Juárez organization has been struggling to hold its footing in a war with the Sinaloa Foundation in Ciudad Juárez. It controls a tiny bloc of territory in central north Mexico, along the US border, but it has been gradually losing control of it to Sinaloa (see map here).
STRATFOR reports that Juárez is surrounded by Sinaloa territory and that the rival organization has cut off Juárez’s access to many of it supply lines, cutting its revenue as a result. STRATFOR predicts the demise of Juárez, although not before a lot more fighting in already violent Ciudad Juárez, the locus of the Sinaloa-Juárez battle for territory.
