Ping!

Ping!

Sadly, our President doesn't seem to care who or what comes over the Mexican border, as long as the illegals keep coming.

[Pro-Bush]

Bump!

It's not just a question of Arab terrorists buying their way into the U.S. with the cooperation of border "coyotes." There is also a political alliance developing between separatist Hispanics and Muslim radicals.

...Increased conformation to Islam happening in Mexico.

former Mexican diplomat who worked in Lebanon's consular ministry office and gave out passports.

With a Mexican passport, a terrorist can get a matricula consular card, which is accepted as valid ID in many municipalities. Even if he is a suspected illegal alien and he gets stopped by the police, as long as he shows his matricula consular card, he won't be deported.

The Democrats in the CA legislature wanted to give state ID cards -- equivalent to proof of legal residence in CA -- to these potential terrorists, too.

Bump! No comment!

I think this is just stirring the pot a little. Regarding Islamist Mexicans, is there a case of Islamist Terrorists coming over? We should really be screaming over Canada's lack INS control there. They let everybody there, foreigners no this and it's (was) easier to get here legally (or not).

"Abdel Hakim Tizegha, involved in the millennium plot, sneaked across the border posing as a Mexican migrant."

That Algerian cell was going through CANADA!!!

That said, I'm not a alien sympathizer, just focus on the urgent crisis on our northern border were terrorists come in.

Shush now, don't you know that "every thing possible is being done to protect you"? The border situtation is surreal. And it's not because the Republican politicians are pandering to the desire of business for cheap labor.

There has to be a darker and more sinister reason, common sense dictates that there has to be.

Any terrorist can get a matricula consular card in California. People are lined up around the block to get them. You don't need a birth certificate. Then you can open a bank account at any Bank of America or Wells Fargo Bank. Wells Fargo also will accept the Guatemala Matricula card and the Chinese are lobbying to get their own "matricula" accepted by these banks.

I read somewhere that a former Bank of America official was appointed to head the INS recently.
WHAT IN THE HECK IS GOING ON?

OK, I have sone great reads here. First, PBS Fronline that covers the Algerian cell trail Second a must read on Visa and the Council of La Raza in Miami. Exerpt follows:"The recently expired 245(i) program lets certain foreign applicants for legal permanent residency pay a $1,000 fee to process their paperwork in the U.S. instead of returning to their native countries for greater scrutiny of their criminal backgrounds. This allows applicants to bypass a 1996 federal law barring illegal aliens from re-entering the U.S. for up to 10 years. To downplay the criminal nature of most of the program's beneficiaries, the Journal claims that 245(i) "applied only to immigrants who entered the country legally on a visa that had expired or was about to." That is an outright falsehood. As an Immigration and Naturalization Service information sheet about 245(i) (available on the web at >Visas for Terrorists

[Finalapproach29er]

Bush is going to get burned by leaving the borders open.He's had two years to fix this and done nothing.People are going to ask why he did nothing.

Of course, "family values don't stop at the Rio Grande" (mocking sarcasm). Can't be mean to the Mexicans,might hurt their feelings.(more sarcasm)

[endthematrix]

Here in Illinois, too. Once they get an "official" ID they bank accounts and able to apply for other documents as well. Bush will get this through to pacify Fox and to put a quiet band-aid on the crumbling damn that is ILLEAGAL IMMIGRATION! Yuk!

[Cacophonous]

Any effort President Bush exerts on the War on Terror will be for naught if he does not secure the borders. And granting amnesty is not the answer.

[Cacophonous]

An Arab can more easily disguise himself as a Mexican than he can a Canadian. Although your larger point is right on...ALL borders need to be secured.

[endthematrix]

Then again you don't need a disguise to get from Mexico, right? Just walk on over! Also, the documents are fake anyway. But it would NOT be funny if an Arab were to get by INS using an ID that listed his name as Lars Gustav from Sweden doing business for Volvo!

[SandRat]

ILLEGAL PING!

[Diogenesis]

The Head of Homeland Security is going to make these Arabs into Americans
and forgive them. Seems a three year is smarter.

[Diogenesis]

... a three year old is smarter.
