Threat Matrix: Daily Terror Threat - Thread Thirty-Five

Unrest in Pakistan Setback for Terror War
(Full Story)

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan -- A week of unprecedented urban fighting in the wild tribal belt of North Waziristan has left scores dead and forced thousands to flee their homes, raising the stakes in Pakistan's war on Islamic militancy along the Afghan border.

A jumbled alliance of foreign militants, local tribesmen and Islamic students eager for jihad have stepped up resistance in a region where the army already claims to have wiped out al-Qaida as a viable fighting force.

The unrest, brewing for months, is a setback to the U.S.-led war on terror. Further hampering that effort are deteriorating relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan over Afghan claims that Taliban leader Mullah Omar is hiding in Pakistan and suicide bombers are training here.

No, just before I posted it, I was in and out without being registered. I think, as soon as they started getting hits, they changed the link!!!

This article could be better...

Indictment says illegal workers were supplied to local employers

Well, MamaDearest, what are our taxes this day paying for, may I ask? Our immigration and customs departments have been re-organized and re-organized and re-named again, within a few short years.

I guess we had to pay some genius to figure all that out, and now no one knows the proper names of the departments. Border Patrol is now CBP (Customs and Border Patrol). INS is now USCIS and ICE. All of it comes under the Homeland Security Department, something new since 9/11... but the enforcement is worse than ever.

Thanks to the Idaho State Trooper for doing the job that LEOs across the land should feel empowered to do, but no thanks to ICE being thinly stretched. Too many jurisdictions is an old story, but a problem we cannot afford to have at this time.

We need unified law enforcement in response to the invasion crisis. Mexico is very clear on what their agenda is. In the U.S., we the people are clear on our agenda but the administration and the politicians are not. Hence, Mexico takes advantage of the opening. Step by step, they are making advances.

It seems to be up to the states to enforce federal laws, since the feds won't or can't.

"Tests Negative at Senate Office Building"
Apr 17th - 8:55pm

WASHINGTON (AP) -
ARTICLE SNIPPET: "Schneider said, "The fact that we haven't had any positive hits on any nerve agents is good." It was not known what set off the sensors, she said, and that will be subject to further investigation."

[potlatch]

The article I read that really got me was the fact that employers are paying the coyote fees to bring the illegals over to work for them.

That really shows you how bad it is.

[TheLion]

I'm a smoker also and have been thinking of getting it from a tobacco farm....isn't this possible?

[Smartass]

The more that comes out, the more is found out. It proves of a larger conspiracy theory. I just hope the U.S. Department of State isn't implicated?

[Cindy]

Can you provide the url again to the ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION THREAD you started?

Thank you.

[La Enchiladita]

Seems to me the IRS should have noticed something too....

[potlatch]

That would be Just Piper, Cindy. I just got pinged by the others.

"All Americans must see 'United 93'"

Apr 18, 2006
by Dennis Prager

COMMENTARY SNIPPET: "Incredibly there is some controversy about this film. Apparently many Americans are not "ready" to see a film about 9-11 "so soon" after 9-11."

If this is so, it is an ode to the weakening of the American people."

[Cindy]

Thank you potlatch.

[Smartass]

Night all, gonna call it quits.
