The FBI is investigating an alleged human smuggling operation based in Chaparral, N.M., that agents say is bringing "Iraqis and other Middle Eastern" individuals across the Rio Grande from Mexico.

An FBI intelligence report distributed by the Washington, D.C. Joint Terrorism Task Force, obtained by the Blotter on ABCNews.com, says the illegal ring has been bringing Iraqis across the border illegally for more than a year.

Border Patrol officials in the area said they were unaware of the specifics of the FBI's report, and federal prosecutors in New Mexico told ABCNews.com they had no current cases involving the illegal smuggling of Iraqis.

The FBI report, issued last week, says the smuggling organization "used to smuggle Mexicans, but decided to smuggle Iraqi or other Middle Eastern individuals because it was more lucrative." Each individual would be charged a fee of $20,000 to $25,000, according to the report.

The people to be smuggled would "gather at a house on the Mexican side of the border" and then cross the Rio Grande into the U.S., the report says.

"Everyone calm down, there are no Iraqis sneaking over the border into the United States. It is pure foolishness to think that"

We are at war and we have no border.

I keep banging my head against the wall and the problem still remains.

this must just be an April Fools....

Has to be. Our government can account for everyone in it.

I believe my tag line, very appropriate.

That reminds me, I went 'round with a census taker this evening. After a couple of minutes she closed her lap top and left. I told hubby, they'll be back.

I only answered four questions. That won't satisfy them.
