Iraqis entered the Valley illegally Monday, May 01, 2006 Posted: 06:57 PM

Three Iraqis slipped into the US over the weekend

HARLINGEN – NEWSCHANNEL 5 is tracking information on three Iraqis who slipped into the Valley over the weekend.

We’re told the men are each in their early 20s. They were caught near the Los Indios International Bridge near Harlingen on Saturday. FBI agents say the men claim to be Christians who are afraid they will face persecution if they are returned to Iraq.

Before they were caught at the border, the men were arrested in Mexico carrying Greek passports. They were held almost a month for entering Mexico illegally. But we’re told the Mexican government released them and told them to “go north”.

We’re told they are still in the Valley and are being questioned about why and how they got here.

Since October, 11 Iraqis have been caught entering the U.S. illegally.

Watch Zarqawi be caught in El Paso, then released until his deportation hearing in six months.

If they've caught 11, I hate to think how many have slipped through.

While watching the million-Manuel "Uno de Mayo" celebrations on MSM last night, I wonder if anyone of our congresscritters (or perhaps the POTUS himself) were asking themselves:

What would we do if all those people were muslim terrorists?

Tell them to "Go North"?

Mexico has never been a friend of the U.S. since the ass-kicking they got in 1848.

Don't Re-elect Incumbent Politicians.

Time for a change. Time to change the dirty diapers.
