All the data and common sense reflects that the cartels are trying to divert attention away from the border.

Yet this article, published by a very un-reliable source, says that the cartels are facilitating an event that would not just draw more attention to the border, but would also raise that attention to another level.

[SwinneySwitch]

“The cartels have no loyalty to any nation or person. It isn’t surprising that for the right price they would assist terrorists, knowingly or unknowingly.”

If you want on, or off this S. Texas/Mexico ping list, please FReepMail me.

We spend almost 5 yrs in Ft. Huachuca, and it is beyond me how this could happen. The Installation has a oversized plymp flying at all times to monitor these activities. What a shame/

[Arrowhead1952]

This story keeps popping up a little too often for comfort.

I figured this would stay buried, but it was just reported on Fox News.

Never thought it would get this much exposure.

“The Installation has a oversized plymp flying at all times to monitor these activities. “

Is that anything like a blimp?

Per FOX news just now...

Their prime source was reliable!...the other source may have had ulterior motives, but the prime source is reliable.

[Guenevere]

published by a very unreliable source

I repeat, the main source was reliable per FoxNews...(about 5 minutes ago)

When this was originally posted here in May, the thread got pulled.

[Arrowhead1952]

I remember that thread too. Something does not pass the smell test with this story.

I have a hard time believing this - if there was a threat to this country involving our borders, I am 100% sure that President Bush would have secured our borders!!! I can't believe you all saying such bad things about him!!!!

(I tried not to laugh while typing the above, but it was too hard).

Unfortunately it will take a serious attack before the folks in the White House care about the border, and even then I think they will just make things more difficult on Americans than on those who want to cross the borders...It's pretty dadgum clear that some folks with a lot of money and/or influence want the borders as open as possible. All we have are votes - they've got money which gets them the ears of whoever they want to talk to.

Any women & children at this base?

Thousands...there are three elementary schools on post, and an off-post high school with approximately 2500 students enrolled.

My next door neighbor has a cousin whose illegitimate stepchild(red-headed) is married to woman who works for the Hudspeth County Sheriff and their intelligence sources say that terrorists are going to try to blow up several railroad bridges across the Rio Bravo to disrupt wheat and corn shipments.

After that, they plan to move on to the upper Texas and Louisiana coasts to attack the petrochemical infrastructure in that area.

After that they will go on to Florida and target US Central Command facilities in that state.

After that, Brother Raul will have numerous Cigarettes waiting offshore in which they will escape to Cuba.

This story keeps popping up a little too often for comfort.

It was carried by a Tucson TV station two weeks ago, I suspect the Washington paper just picked it up from there...

[Spiff]

Fox News had a report on this situation this morning. They had a former FBI Special Agent on as well as the post commander for Fort Huachuca. I TIVO’d and may be able to get the report up on YouTube later. I don’t think that Fox found or reported any new information.

[Guenevere]

I saw this...

..and as I told Ben Ficklin, who seems to think the 'source' is not reliable...

..FOX stands by the main source as being reliable.
