Al-Qaida Suspect Arrested in Texas Updated: Wednesday, Jul. 28, 2004 - 1:00 PM

A South African woman picked up in Texas almost 10 days ago may turn out to be a key, high-level al-Qaida operative.
Her name is Farida Goolam Mohamed Ahmed. She was stopped at McAllen Miller International Airport on July 19 headed to New York.
Eddie Flores of the U.S. Border Patrol office in McAllen, Texas tells FederalNewsRadio.com that a review of her papers raised some concerns.
"In looking at her documents, they did not find any entry documents in her passport where she was legally admitted into the United States," says Flores.
Ahmed produced a South African passport to the agents with four pages torn out, and with no U.S. entry stamps. Ahmed reportedly later confessed to investigators that she entered the country illegally by crossing the Rio Grande River. Ahmed was carrying travel itineraries showing a July 8 flight from Johannesburg, South Africa to London. Six days later, Ahmed traveled from London to Mexico City before attempting to travel from McAllen to New York.
Government sources tell FederalNewsRadio.com that capturing this woman could be comparable to the arrest of Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of 9/11. It was revealed in court Tuesday that she was on a watch list and had entered the U.S. possibly as many as 250 times.
Tuesday, the South African government issued a warning that Al-Qaida militants and other terrorists traveling through Europe had obtained South African passports, and authorities believe they got them from crime syndicates operating inside the government agency that issues the documents.

So now they put men's briefs on her head, photograph her and get her to talk?? :)

Nelson Mandela has some explaining to do.....but don't hold your breath waiting for 1)Any media outlet to ask him about it....and 2)His speaking to the subject in any event.
Guess this is some of the people Terry Kerry was waxing poetic about last night, eh?
We got one but how the hell many did we miss?
Is it going to take another disaster,or two,or three, to wise up the idiots in charge of this country?
"So now they put men's briefs on her head, photograph her and get her to talk?? :)"
Sounds like a T-sipper frat party...
why dont we set up a bounty system and declare open season on the southern border.
YEEHA! Not a bad idea... too bad the ACLU would bemoan the "abused civil rights of the illegals... uh... displaced peoples of the world".
I'm sure she's not the only one that's slipped through the southern border. And only God knows what the hell they have brought in with them.
Are we ever gonna get serious about the southern border?
Short Answer: NO!
Not in our life time. I am from Corpus Christi, living in Houston. Each year gets worse, regardless of who sits in the White House. It only gets worse down here.
"a South African passport.... with four pages torn out, and with no U.S. entry stamps. Ahmed reportedly later confessed to investigators that she entered the country illegally by crossing the Rio Grande River... "
!!!!!!!!!! HELLO !!!!!!!!!!
Planning. Hmmm, what's in NY? Must be one of Kerry's global friends.
Karl Rove is an idiot to miss the political liability potential here. He's so wrapped up with Hispandering for a few votes, that he fails to see that if a major terrorist act is tracked back to the open border, Bush will be toast in November.
Just imagine 20 or so "immigrants" who are Spanish-speaking Moroccans slipping over the border to safe houses in Tucson. (We already know about the jihad supporters hiding there.)
If Al Queda has smart planners who are up on the American political scene, they will know that Bush will be blamed for any terrorists coming in via Mexico. They can come in "clean," as simple economic migrants, so if a few are captured it won't matter to the overall plan. Once in their safehouses, they can be given legally purchased so-called assault weapons, and sent on to their targets. The entire episode would then be blamed on Bush by the media 24/7. "Bush sent the military to Iraq and left the border wide open!" and "Bush let the terrorists buy assault weapons through the gun show loophole!" I can hear it now.
If this happens in October, Bush is finished. Too bad Bush, Cheney, Rove etc are blind to the political danger to their reelection posed by their open borders.
WOT PING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
