WND is written by people with an agenda, who have shown no particular fealty to the facts in any matter in which they have a vested interest.

The DHS is an official department of the United States which is tasked with investigating criminal activity and providing evidence for trials.

So yes, I give more credence to the DHS report than I do to WND. Of course, WND's facts on the rare occasions that they provide a fact are often from the DHS reports. So they believe them when it's convenient.

My real reason for skepticism of WND is that whenever someone posts a WND article I can trivially show how they have twisted the facts and made up conclusions without basis in order to push their agenda. I post these regularly, and while I am vilified for that with name-calling and the like, nobody has refuted my objections to the articles.

Probably true, but I would not discount the possibility that the authors or the individuals supplying the information for the DHS report of having an agenda also.

My concern with the DHS report is that I do not know what evidence, if any, has been withheld or not allowed to be brought forward. I am skeptical of individuals or government officials within our government who seem to have an agenda or possibly a hidden agenda. It doesn't matter how many times a person reads and or studies the DHS report, if information is purposely left out of the report then that person will not be able to makes a valid judgment concerning the report without some reservations.

Maybe I'm a little paranoid, but our government has shown itself to be not fully forthcoming at times.
