Expect to hear cries of anguish from the OBLs, the Enviro-Wackos, and the Loony Lefties on this.

The Predators are a mainstay in Air Force operations in Iraq, where they have been operated remotely from Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada, said Maj. Paul Aguirre, a spokesman for the Arizona Air National Guard in Phoenix. The Arizona Guards Predator mission is likely to be an evolving thing, depending on need, but the goal is to get initial operations under way in December with about 120 people, Aguirre said.

Is it a coincidence that there is a lot of Mexican/US border nearby?

...there will be no tie-in between the Air National Guards squadron in Arizona and the Border Patrol surveillance activities.If that's the case they should be disbanded and the Predators turned over to the Minute Men. I hope this is a typical news article that can't get anything straight. But then I've hoped for years that something would be done to close our borders.
