[h=1]THE GANG CHALLENGE IN EL SALVADOR: WORSE THAN YOU THOUGHT[/h]
To summarize: They're basically taking over the country through murder and extortion, in other words, terror. They have cells in the United States and elsewhere, just like ISIS does. Their game is power through intimidation. While not using religion to justify their evil goals, they nevertheless use the same tactics and the same goal: power.
