Al-Qaida plans to use Mexico as a key infiltration route for sending operatives into the United States, according to a Mexican newspaper.
Mexican intelligence agencies have identified at least two routes for al-Qaida infiltration, the Proceso newspaper reported last week.
The infiltration plan calls for terrorists to depart South Africa for London and then take a non-stop flight to Mexico or a Central American nation and from there use migrant smuggling routes to reach northern Mexico and the United States.
Two of three suspected al-Qaida terrorists recently arrested in England and Pakistan had passed through Mexico with South African passports.
Another suspect, a Saudi national, is being sought in northeastern Mexico after traveling through Panama, Honduras, Nicaragua and Guatemala.
Adnan Shukrijumah is a key al-Qaida figure in North America. He was tracked to Sonora, Mexico, in August and is being sought by the FBI.
Ping.
This was inevitable, considering the state of our borders. Kerry has something sensible to talk about.
Well......DUH!
This is one of the reasons I'll hold my nose as I push the touch-screen button for Bush in November. His stance on Mexican (illegal) immigration and the pi$$-poor southern border security issue is almost as dangerous as sKerry's communist ideology.

Ping.
Maybe out of their kind hearts they'll call DHS to let Asa know?
Thanks for posting this, John.The Hispanderers in Washington, DC are going to regret leaving our southern border unprotected. Unfortunately.
Link to a related article. I hope President Bush and Karl Rove can take 30 minutes and read the latest cover story from Time Magazine.

But hey, Asa Hutchinson has told us "No can do."
So just wait till you get bombed or anthraxed, OK? Don't question authority.
I'm confused as to property owners and their employees being policed better that the borders ?? Easier to do I guess.
Stay Safe
This is a no brainer. Thats why many of us have said the fedgov.org is not serious about fighting terrorism and wont be till they work to seal the borders and deport illegals. Everything else is a joke especially the huge money sucking boondoggle called homeland defense. If that isnt a commie name nothing is.
They're just committing the terrorist acts that hard-working Americans with families to feed won't committ.
You're right. And *something's* coming to a fever-pitch, boiling-point, sooner rather than later, I'm guessing. The border states are being overrun and a massive terrorist hit, is waiting in the wings, I'm afraid, from all the MEs coming through.
It's going to get ugly and bloody, all too soon enough. watch your back...
Bush has been pretty lax about the borders. I know Kerry doesn't want to offend the Hispanic voters either. Thousands of terrrists have probably slipped in already. I would feel much more secure if we had several hundred thousand troops on our borders.

Sorry, but I'm not that well versed into American politics - who is Asa Hutchinson ?
Yes, but isn't Republican hispandering for votes more important than national security?
It wouldn't surprise me if that incident becomes the Waco of a new generation.
Google him up. He's been in the news lately. He runs border "security." A lower lying worm there isn't.
