Mexicans Stage 'March of Anger' Against Army 'Angry demonstrators in Ciudad Juarez protest the presence of thousands of Mexican combat troops in the violent city where drug-fueled crime continues to take record-setting tolls. Mexican President Felipe Calderon, upon taking power in late 2006, declared a military crackdown on organized crime and ordered the deployment of some 6,000 troops in Ciudad Juarez to reinforce the local police against drug gangs. The decision was warmly welcomed in Washington but is facing mounting criticism from civil rights groups.'
