[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 839049, member: 12952"] Associated Press SAN BENITO, Guatemala (AP) - The day worker lay wounded, playing dead as the killers cut off the heads of other victims. A pregnant woman was let go when her children started to cry. But 27 others in one of Guatemala's largest postwar massacres were slaughtered, their bodies and severed heads left strewn across the green pasture of an isolated cattle ranch in the northern border province of Peten. Guatemalan authorities on Monday blamed the weekend of violence on the Mexican drug cartel, the Zetas, which has set up shop in Guatemala and brought its terror tactics to the rural indigenous area along the Mexican border. The Zetas are blamed for two recent mass killings in Mexico as well, 183 bodies found in mass graves last month and a massacre of 72 migrants last August, both in the state of Tamaulipas bordering Texas.
