Terrorists operated in Tucson

Dupnik said the 8,000-member Muslim community has not offered help to local lawmen looking to end the suspected support network.
"They don't have much interest in coming forward," he said. "Law enforcement has not received any substantial help from the Islamic community."

What a surprise.

[Abogado]

Perhaps the fact that Tucson (Pima county) majority votes democrat might be a clue...

[yoe]

It's no secrete that the U Of A is a hot-bed of radicalism and socialism and has tenured professors who promote anti-Americanism. The FBI and CIA would do well to establish who in the Islamic communities across the country, not just in Tucson, are here legitimately, who are students and who are actual citizens. In Tucson you see the women dressed according to their religion even on the hottest days, certainly not becoming westernized or even trying to be an American. Unfortunately, they cast suspicion upon themselves especially by their silence.

[Elkiejg]

May not be PC - but any non-citizen with 'suspected' ties to 'radical Islam' should be deported NOW.

[gaspar]

Believe me, the FBI official (now retired and living in Tucson) who ran the Tucson office in the nineteen nineties knew a great deal about the Muslim revolutionaries operating in Tucson. Unfortunately, Tucson and Phoenix newspapers ae not know for their investigative journalists or this would have been discovered long ago.

"These people don't continue to come back to Arizona because they like the sunshine or they like the state," Williams testified.

Nogales is 60 miles to the south and crossing the border there historically has been simple. Don't know if they have highway checkpoints for "illegals" like in CA. Anyone?

[jordan8]

Gee, I remember the good old days when Tucson didn't have or need an Islamic Center, nor a vast, expensive, police structure to try to keep an eye on them.

9-11 was simply the inevitable result of multiculturalism. The little blue pimple that indicates the existence of the cultural AIDS underneath: the anti-white genocidal racism of the liberal establishment. All these hearings and articles about how and why the FBI and CIA failed to stop these attacks are red herrings designed to draw public opinion away from the fact that the chief reasons they were possible, indeed likely, are the root beliefs and policies of the ruling elite. A bit like Al Capone holding hearings in Chicago on why the police have failed to stop crime.

We had checkpoints on all state highways leaving the county until Jim Kolbe (R-AZ) tied their removal to increased funding for the BP. Until then, illegals had to run a 25-mile gauntlet to get past them and to the interstate highway (I-10). Now all they have to do is get to a pick-up point within 5 miles of the border.

Bump-Ping!!!
The Border List ^TM

Freepmail me if you wish to be removed from or added to this list!

[Spiff]

Could it be our wide open border with Mexico!!? Hmmmm!?

[SAMWolf]

They were probably just stopping there on their way to work as Interns in Vera Katz's office in Portland Oregon.

[SandRat]

You bet that's one reason!

We need a Hard Headed no-BS accepted Ex-Marine Force Recon Commander for the Homeland Security and the INS Heads. Then GW needs to take Aswhcroft to the woodshed for a talking to about prosecuting what gets picked up and the scum from the ACLU and any enabing RDDB Lawyers.

The Law is the law and it will be enforced to its fullest NO EXCEPTIONS; then watch the RATS leave!

[StolarStorm]

What was his name? The FBI official that is? My uncle was based in Tucson and retired there.

[4.1O dana super trac pak]

Visas for all!!!!!

Oye.

[janetgreen]

GWB is now giving his "Address to the Nation", talking about all the terrorists who have been rounded up and how much money we'll all have to donate to the cause. The borders remain open for all. I cannot take this man seriously.

[Tunehead54]

Thanks for the info - sad news. I cannot understand how the b-crats fail to recognize our borders as the worst weak link in our post 9-11 security needs.

I am depressed. :-(

A couple of years ago I had occasion to visit the Steward Observatory Mirror Lab at U of A, the nation's foremost facility for producing large telescope mirrors for astronomers. As the staff escorted my space development convention group on the 'nickel tour' of the facility, he mentioned something almost in passing: whenever a new mirror leaves the Lab, it is shipped out at an anonymous vehicle at an unannounced random time of day - specifically, he said, to avoid eco-terrorists, who now consider scientific research to be as evil as manufacturing or power generation.

Ever since Sept. 11, I've wondered whether there might be a connection between al Qaeda and Greens. They have the common objective of destroying Western civilization. Burning housing developments and smashing research instruments is, in the long run, just as important in realizing this goal as flying planes into buildings.

Sounds like a perfect situatation for islamofascist sleeper agents to serve as the northern end of a terrorist smuggling pipeline. "Abdul the moderate muslim" living in Arizona could be providing transportation, comms, documents, maps, cash etc. for jihadists coming over the border.

[yarddog]

Couldn't agree more.

Such an obvious route for terrorits.

Also note that American Moslems are not cooperating in investigations. There is little doubt that they are sympathetic to the terrorists. The only other possible reason would be they are afraid of them.
