Another issue is that they're civilians. You could bomb their facilities but bombing civilians, especially when they're your own citizens, is a pretty bad look.

To an extent yes, but you’ll have a hard time finding many reasonable people to protest bombing military grade cartel facilities. Many innocent civilians have suffered at the cartels hands and governments the world over are familiar with the extent of the cartels crimes, I don’t think it’d be a significant problem.

You know what they say about eggs and omelets after all
