The most recent edition of the BBC Global News Podcast (Feb 12 10am) takes a look at today's arrival of the Mexican president to "Mexico's Most Dangerous City," Ciudad Juarez.

In all this, who dares to speak and act on behal and with the endless victims of the drug violence, many of whom are women?
