Controversial Muslim cleric caught being smuggled into U.S. over Mexico border
Daily Mail ^ | Jan 28, 2011 | Daily Mail Reporter

U.S. border guards got a surprise when they searched a Mexican BMW and found a hardline Muslim cleric - banned from France and Canada - curled up in the boot.

Said Jaziri, who called for the death of a Danish cartoonist that drew pictures of the prophet Mohammed, was being smuggled into California when he was arrested, along with his driver Kenneth Robert Lawler.

The 43-year-old was deported from Canada to his homeland Tunisia in 2007 after it emerged he had lied on his refugee application about having served jail time in France.

He was being held as a material witness in the criminal case against Mr Lawler, who has been charged with immigrant smuggling.

Why couldn’t they have smuggled him in an old Ford Pinto?

Nothing to see here. Go back to your homes. This is NOT a case of an America hating Muslim being smuggled into the country.

Maybe he’s just coming over the border to do the work that Americans aren’t willing to do.

Kenneth Robert Lawler is on facebook. Can anyone mine that for data?

What’s one Muslim cleric among thousands of Mexicans?

Meanwhile, how’s that lawsuit against Arizona going?

Let’s see, he lied so can’t we cut off his tongue before sending his stank carcass back to the 7th century.

That can't be right because only toilet cleaners and produce pickers cross the border. The MSM has told me so.

Thanks for keeping an eye on the British newspapers so we can get the American news.

“Won’t see this in the MSM.”

This story was not in the San Diego media until AFTER it appeared in the UK press. How many other stories have been supressed because of political correctness ?

Nah, it was a conservative who was smuggling him in to help promote the anti-immigrant paranoia, probably the same person who planted that Islamist celebration of 9/11 book the other day..

Do I really need a sarc tab at this point?

Since he was being smuggled over the Mexico border into the U.S. , how will Obama and Napalitano handle it?
Since they’re busy ignoring the swiss cheese border and Mannish Janet swears that the order couldn’t be more secure?
Will they immediately turn him loose like they’ve been doing with the other border crossers?
And how many muslim terrorists have come across there and not gotten caught?

“This story was not in the San Diego media until AFTER it appeared in the UK press. How many other stories have been supressed because of political correctness ?”

No, it was decided that the piano on the sandbar was more of a national security threat, warranting coverage that just pushed this story off the page.
