MEXICO CITY Mexico says its arrested four Iraqis who were trying to sneak into the United States without the proper documents.

Mexico's Attorney General's office says police -- acting on an anonymous tip -- found the four aboard a bus in the northern city of Navajoa (nav-ah-HO-. That's about 375 miles south of the Arizona border.

The statement says the Iraqis were in Mexico illegally.

Officials are investigating the background of the four and trying to determine how they got into Mexico.

Many undocumented Iraqi nationals have been captured in Mexican territory en route to the U-S border. None have been found to have had any links to terrorism.

Were they arrested for deportation to Iraq or deportation to the US?

Wow, they arrested a total of four illegals headed for the US. That's probably as many as they have arrested since Texas became a Republic.

My best guesses...either the Iraqi's didn't pay off the right people/have enough to pay off the right people, OR it's a smokescreen by Mexico to take the heat off the Border Issues!

BTTT

Didn't I read somewhere, there was quite a large Iraqi population in Mexico? (mostly Christians) Perhaps the Mex. officials just rounded up a few of these guys and falsely charged them with crimes. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?

Time to hear from the tiny FR soft-on-illegals crew who continually pooh-pooh the risk of terrorists coming across our southern border.

* crickets *

I wouldn't be too quick to condemn Bush and the Congress for inaction on the border. They did approve the 700 miles of fence along the CA-Mex border. There will be more.

The portion that did get built shut down the on-foot illegals. The Drug Cartels are forced to tunnel unter the fence.

Am I right?

"None have been found to have any links to terrorism." Oh, I guess that makes it OK. Why are they illegals? How and why are they in Mexico? Why are they en route to the United States? I guess they just want to support President Bush in the war on terrorism.

"I liked Dennis Millers suggestion: Hire the illegals to build a wall & when they finish....hip check them to the other side."

Or have them complete the Mexican side last!

The one who tried to smuggle $25,000 worth of designer clothes into the country? Is she Mexican or Cuban?

These Iraqis were likely Christians fleeing the Islamist nuts who are making things increasingly difficult over in Iraq. A lot of those folks have been making their way to America lately. The Mexicans aren't arresting them because they're doing the USA a favor; it lets Mexico make a show of 'helping' us in order to take some of the heat off for Mexico flooding the US with their own people.

Even Rush would become a kook if tomorrow he spoke about the Community.

They have their hooks in him.

He'll exercise his right to remain silent on this issue.
