"Is this Heaven? No, it's Iowa," where more illegals(400) get detained at one time than anywhere in the country.

Wonder which Muslim country Kamyar Enshayan hails from?

[NonLinear]

I mean, the invasion of Iraq has been illegal by international law; U.S. government and some corporations have been involved in all sorts of covert and overt illegal operations all over the world, and for a long time.

He didn't even make it through two sentences before getting it wrong. Iraq was in violation of the cease fire to which it agreed after being ousted from Kuwait.

BTW, I spent most of my life (1974-2001) in Iowa. Yes, they are welcoming and nice there. No, illegals shouldn’t take advantage of that. Perhaps we should have some type of “guest worker” program, but not amnesty!

Kamyar Enshayan please STFU, whine to someone else and just go away.

[steel_resolve]

People who came here after 1492 go out on their ear.

You first f'er.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Shut up, Kamyar Enshayan. You're NEXT on next the flight out, in shackles and with an I.C.E. tracking microchip under your skin.

[Just A Nobody]

whose only illegal behavior is...

breaking and entering then making demands and suing our schools.

[skeeter]

Since when has illegal-ness been such an important criteria for federal action, and people worrying about the "illegals?"

Since before you arrived, Kamyar.

Dear KAMYAR ENSHAYAN,

As Boortz would say, "How much Rent-to-Own furniture do you have?"

[RC2]

He said in the end “out on their ear.” I have a better idea, why don’t we just get rid of all of our laws, maybe that would make him/her happy. Get with it or get out...simple as that.

[Snickering Hound]

Great article Kamyar, but I believe your talents are more needed on the Iowa pig farm beat...

I have an insight on this raid that isnt mentioned here. W/o going into detail, there is a lot more about the folks who were rounded up. For starters, most were Guatemalans, with prior deportation orders. Some were wanted sex offenders, and there were drugs found in addition to the remnants of a meth lab. Given the amount of felonies committed here, in addition to the crime of sneaking in, the size of the raid and it’s visibility were warranted. The writer’s name certainly belies his Iowan heritage...NOT!

[latina4dubya]

It is incredible that a nation of immigrants who came here for a better life are so harsh on people who are trying to do the same, and whose only illegal behavior is to work hard

if they do not want to become Americans, then i don't want them to come... you want to be here, become a citizen... learn the language... i'm so sad that we've lost our identity as a nation...

Kamyar Enshayan is an adjunct professor at the University of Northern Iowa. Obviously, one of those good ol' leftists indoctrinating our kids. "Kamyar Enshayan is program manager for UNI's Center for Energy and Environmental Education and directs several community-wide projects. "Buy Fresh, Buy Local" is designed to make it easier for people to find locally grown food items. "Yard for Kids" is a community health education program aimed at significantly reducing the use of lawn weed killers and reducing children's exposure to these toxins at schools, parks and home. "UNI Energywi$e" is working to reduce energy waste on campus, saving considerable dollars. He is an agricultural engineer and teaches environmental studies as an adjunct faculty at UNI."

[wastedyears]

Who the heck is this author?

[Pontiac]

I mean, the invasion of Iraq has been illegal by international law;

You would think that an educated college professor would not stoop to such out right lies. (OK it is about as common as ants at a picnic)

WE are not and have never been a country of immigrants. Since about 1690 the majority of the people of America were born here. To say we are country of immigrants is to demean our birthright and to elevate the status of illegal aliens. In case you never notice they only use the term “nation of immigrants” when talking about illegal aliens. It was never used prior to the Clinton gang. It is nothing but liberal propaganda.
