State Dept. Issues Travel Warning for Mexico
AP ^ | 26 Jan 05 | Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - The State Department on Wednesday issued a travel warning for Americans visiting Mexico, saying violent criminal activity, including murder and kidnaping, has increased in its northern border region.
"U.S. citizens should be aware of the risk posed by the deteriorating security situation," the department said in a public announcement. It added that the great majority of victims are Mexican citizens.
The announcement attributed the increased crime to a war between criminal organizations struggling for control of the lucrative narcotics trade. It said the leaders of several major criminal organizations have been arrested, creating a power vacuum.
"This has resulted in a wave of violence aimed primarily at members of those trafficking organizations and criminal justice officials," the announcement said.

Your posts and those of the many others on TM renew my faith in the existence of TheRemnant. After all, the FBI HOSTAGE RESCUE TEAM attacked and incinerated in cold blood men, women and children who were NOT hostages and who were minding their own business until attacked in WACO, TX.
The US is NOT blessed by God any longer, and anyone who believes we are, is in for a shocker I'm afraid.
50 million killed...which of them could have cured the diseases of the world? Which of them could have perhaps saved the life of you or one of your children as a physician?
And how long until their unheard screams are heard by our self-proclaimed "christian" leaders including bush, who could stop it TOMORROW if he really wanted to bad enough.
In light of all of this, doesn't the idea of WHO are the fascists somewhat blur?? It seems there are MANY fascists, and mooslimb countries don't hold the monopoly any longer.
And WE by our silence and our failure to rise up against the atrocities are as guilty as the muslims who remain quiet about the terrors committed by their death cult, and the nazis in civis who accepted the death camps in silent fear..

A TV ACTRESS SPEAKS THE UN-P.C. TRUTH
By Michelle Malkin
Guess who said this:
Although not all Muslims are terrorists, unfortunately, in today's world, most of the terrorists are Muslim.
It was Shohreh Aghdashloo, the lovely Iranian actress who plays a controversial role in FOX's hit TV series, 24. The Council on American-Islamic Relations launched protests over a plot line involving a Muslim family of terrorist sleeper operatives; Aghdashloo plays the mother in the family. Unlike the Islamist sympathizers at CAIR, Aghdashloo is an outspoken critic of fundamentalist Muslim regimes and a proud, assimilated American. From the Boston Herald:
A refugee from the 1979 Iranian Revolution, she is a member of Los Angeles' thriving Farsi-speaking minority, sometimes called ``Tehrangeles.'' Her politics are clear: She doesn't accept the legitimacy of the present religious regime in Iran.
"When President Bush included Iran in his Axis of Evil group, I don't believe he was talking about Iran,'' she said. ``He was talking about the bunch of mercenaries into whose hands our country has fallen.'' It has been 25 years since she escaped from Iran after the ayatollahs closed her theater, the Drama Workshop. ``In Iran, as it is now, you cannot portray reality on stage, because women must always wear the scarf,'' she said...
``My wishes when I came to America were to be a working actress, to act in English and to meet the people on the A-list who would want me for prominent projects.
``If I am typecast, I understand that it is society's demand. If society demands Middle Easterners in films, I don't mind being a part of that. At the same time, my identity is not solely Iranian.
``We worked hard from scratch to be a normal American family,'' she said. ``We have a 16-year-old daughter named Tara Jane, after `Gone With the Wind' and Jane Austen. She is already a senior in high school.''
Aghdashloo is proud of her American citizenship.
``Henry Miller said that the problem with native people is that they don't look at the monuments in their own towns. I do. As an immigrant, I appreciate every inch I have gained.
``When I first became a citizen, I was dying to vote, just like Tara. I got to the polling place at 6 a.m. to be certain I could exercise my right, because I was deprived of that right for so long.''
What a breath of fresh air. Wouldn't you love to see her debate Barbra Streisand, Michael Moore, Al Franken, or any CAIR spokes-apologist?

Perhaps he said something bad about the "new gods" [RNC/Bush/Globalism] and the "bushBOTS" got angry. /sarc [Now watch..I'll be next]

Officials Rethinking Public Terror Alerts
BOSTON - Authorities say the recent terror alert issued for Boston was the result of an act of revenge by an immigrant smuggler allegedly trying to get back at people who failed to pay him. The apparent hoax has renewed scrutiny on the choices that authorities must make between deciding when to warn the public and when to investigate quietly without broadcasting the threat.
The warning from an anonymous tipster to California authorities quickly crackled across the nation to Boston: A group of people were on route to Massachusetts and planning a terror attack.
