Cracks show in the Mexican Catholic community over drug warfare

Mexican Bishop José Raúl Vera López is speaking out against the Mexican government's current war against Mexican drug cartels. He and many others claim human rights abuses and that the Mexican military is corrupt and skimming drug profits. This shows a crack appearing in the Mexican community, and may lead to further divides in the church which threw its support behind the government before action was taken.
