"Authorities cope with gang’s immigration through Valley"
The Brownsville Herald ^ | April 28 | By JUAN A. LOZANO, AP

Posted on 04/27/2005 11:56:18 PM PDT by Boston Blackie

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "HOUSTON, April 28, 2005 — A Central American gang immigrating through the Rio Grande Valley is suspected in the slayings of a toddler and at least eight other Houston-area killings, but authorities hope their crackdown on Mara Salvatrucha can keep it from expanding.

At least 20 members of the gang, whose reputed leader from Honduras was arrested near Falfurrias in February, have been arrested in the Houston area in recent months."

News Release

April 27, 2005

ICE AGENTS ARREST 66 ILLEGAL ALIENS WHO WERE BUILDING A NEW FEDERAL COURT FACILITY IN ORLANDO
Arrests Part of ICE's Continued Mission to Closing Existing Critical Infrastructure Vulnerabilities

ORLANDO - Special agents from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested 66 illegal aliens working at a federal construction site here this morning after an ICE investigation that began with a lead provided by Congressman John Mica's office.

The illegal workers were employed by contractors and sub-contractors and were tasked with building the future home of the Middle District's federal courthouse. The courthouse will be the central location where the government will be presenting and litigating criminal and civil cases. The new building will house federal judges, the U.S. Marshals Service, and administrative staff.

The ICE investigation revealed that the illegal workers utilized fraudulent Social Security numbers and other counterfeit documents to obtain employment by various sub-contractors working for Hensel Phelps Construction Company.

"Today's arrests are a reflection of the federal government’s continued commitment to safeguarding our nation's infrastructure, said Raymond M. Connolly, ICE's acting special agent-in-charge in Tampa."Thanks to Congressman Mica's information we were able to neutralize a potential vulnerability in our community."

"Our laws must be enforced," said Congressman Mica. "I am pleased that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Department of Homeland Security and local law enforcement agents are appropriately taking action to crack down on the problem of illegal immigration, particularly where important federal projects are under construction."

Those arrested are from the following countries: Mexico, Guatemala, and Nicaragua. All are in ICE custody awaiting the outcome of their cases. The investigation into this case is ongoing.

Today's arrests were made with the assistance of the Orlando Police Department, the U.S. Marshals Service, ICE's Detention and Removal Office and ICE's Federal Protective Service.

In accordance with ICE's homeland security mission, our agents prioritize worksite enforcement efforts by focusing on investigations related to critical infrastructure, national security and employers who engage in egregious criminal violations. Unauthorized workers employed in sensitive security sites and critical infrastructure facilities -- such as airports, nuclear power and chemical plants and defense contractors -- are vulnerable to exploitation by terrorists, smugglers, traffickers or other criminals.

An employer who knowingly hires unauthorized workers may be criminally prosecuted or be faced with administrative fines of up to $11,000 per person. ICE works with employers to educate them about their responsibilities in this area. In addition, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) operates the Basic Pilot Program, a web-based application that employers can use to verify the employment eligibility of newly hired workers. The Basic Pilot Program is now available nationwide.

—ICE—

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is the largest investigative arm of the Department of Homeland Security.

From your article:

>>>That's why Rep. Ben Miranda, D-Phoenix, this week asked the state attorney general or the U.S. attorney to file charges against Patrick Haab, who held immigrants at a rest stop near Gila Bend.

"Everyone at every Home Depot in Phoenix is subject to the citizen's arrest," Miranda said after a news conference at the state Capitol.<<<




EVERYONE at EVERY Home Depot????
sheesh!
Paging ICE agents.

Sensenbrenner Statement Regarding Today's Revelation that 9/11 Hijackers Used U.S. Public Libraries Prior to 9/11

To: National Desk

Contact: Jeff Lungren or Terry Shawn, 202-225-2492, both of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on the Judiciary

WASHINGTON, April 28 /U.S. Newswire/ -- House Judiciary Committee Chairman F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr. (R-Wis.) issued the following statement regarding today's revelation that a number of the 9/11 hijackers used materials at U.S. public libraries prior to 9/11:

"Today we learned the 9/11 murderers used our public libraries to access the Internet and help plan their travel prior to 9/11. This newly released information demonstrates the critical importance of the PATRIOT Act's Section 215, which allows for the production of business records with a FISA court order. Section 215 provides - with appropriate safeguards - the tools necessary to help disrupt and prevent future terrorist attacks. We put Americans' lives at risk if we foolishly provide sanctuaries - even in our public libraries - for terrorists to operate."

Background:

During today's House Judiciary Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security Subcommittee oversight hearing on Sections 206 and 215 of the USA-PATRIOT Act, the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Kenneth L. Wainstein, responded during questioning:

"Investigators received information that individuals believed to be Wail Al Shehri, Waleed Al Shehri, and Marwan Al Shehhi visited the Delray Beach Public Library, in Delray Beach, Florida. Wail Al Shehri and Waleed Al Shehri entered the library one afternoon in July of 2001 and asked to use the library's computers to access the Internet. After about an hour, a third man, Marwan Al Shehhi, joined the two. Waleed and Wail Al Shehri were hijackers aboard American Airlines Flight 11, while Al Shehhi was the pilot who took control of United Airlines Flight 175. Both of those flights crashed into the World Trade Center on September 11th.

"A witness, who recognized photos of the three individuals that ran in newspaper articles after September 11, provided the information about the Delray Beach library visit. While no records exist to confirm the hijackers' visit to the Delray Beach library, the timing, location, and behavior described by the witness are consistent with other information gathered in the course of the investigation.

"In addition, investigators tracing the activities of the hijackers determined that, on four occasions in August of 2001, individuals using Internet accounts registered to Nawaf Al Hazmi and Khalid Al Mihdar - 9/11 hijackers - used public access computers in the library of a state college in New Jersey. The computers in the library were used to review and order airline tickets on an Internet travel reservations site. Al Hazmi and Al Mihdar were hijackers aboard American Airlines Flight 77, which took off from Dulles Airport and crashed into the Pentagon. The last documented visit to the library occurred on August 30, 2001. On that occasion, records indicate that a person using Al Hazmi's account used the library's computer to review September 11 reservations that had been previously booked."

Again, just for our library of useless info:

April 25, 2005: DISQUIETING NEWS- WE HAVE BEEN LIED TO BY MEMBERS (FORMER INTEL PERSONNEL AND A SENATOR) OF THE US GOVERNMENT AND CERN. BY 2003 IRAQ HAD BUILT A VAST WEAPONS GRADE ENHANCEMENT FACILITY, A URANIUM CALUTRON, AS WELL AS A SMALL U-235 TO PLUTONIUM-238 REACTOR, SADDAM WAS OFFERING OIL FOR BLACK MARKET URANIUM, ENOUGH TO BUILD ABOUT 25 A-BOMBs, JUST AS THE US-LED INVASION OF IRAQ STARTED!

A "Calutron" uses the original Ernst Orlando Lawrence (U Cal Radlab) design for magnetic recovery of weapons grade uranium and plutonium from nuclear ore. It's only use is producing 10-50 kiloton nuclear bombs. Why is the US military remaining mute about it's findings? By 2003 Iraq was only months away from having it's own Atomic Bomb with intent to use it on completion to bomb the US!! Pakistan's President Musharraf had helped Iraq design a massive "EMIS-U/P" weapons grade nuclear refinery in cooperation with the Pakistani AQ Khan Nuclear Network, just as he is doing now in Iran! Certain UN and CERN underlings and Secretary General Koffi Anan were positioning the "Oil for Food" program to: a) lift UN sanctions against Iraq so it could sell their countries oil from Iraq's vast reserves; b) provide Iraq Uranium bearing ores in vast quantity from a French company, sufficient to build 25 A-Bombs (1250 KGs of pure U-235)! Undeniable proof exists that in 1995-2003 there existed a full scale, fully operative IRAQI EMIS Nuclear Refining Plant: "SPECIAL INVESTIGATIVE DOCUMENT ISRI-95-03 >"! Pakistan's always present agenda- a nuclear attack on Washington (the White House and Capital) and NY (at the UN) through third parties while pretending to be our ally - the modern era of "plausible deniability" - "blame Iraq or Iran not us", would cripple the United States, a veritable "death blow" supported by other Middle Eastern despots, and hard liners in China. For safety reasons, Iraq's Calutron Plant and the older Al Tuwaitha Nuclear Research Facility were seized and destroyed by US Special Forces at the outset of invasion, yet most of the valuable bomb manufacturing technology had been already hastily removed, relocated by Saddam's sons and loyalists, under cover of darkness (to where?). CERN's Andre Gsponer reported the proof of Saddam's bomb making programs very publicly: "GSPONER ON IRAQ'S CALUTRONS CIRCA 2001 >" (today: Director, Independent Study Research Institute, Geneva... other articles by Gsponer). His expositive reports were repressed. IAEA Weapons Inspectors were blocked, unable to visit the Calutron as late as 2003. Progress on a nearby reactor intended to reprocess byproduct of the Calutron into weapons grade Plutonium was covered up. Iraq remained ready (under Uday and Qusay Hussein) to build A-Bombs in 2003, stonewalling IAEA and UN inspectors right up to the date of invasion. Iraq operated Intel networks inside the US to gather nuclear secrets: READ THIS >. In late 2002, French-Bulgarian black-marketers gained control of Uranium Ore from Cogema meant for refueling the Davis Besse Reactor in Ohio. (It was recently condemned by the UN for First Energy's failure to repair it timely.) The black-marketers were actively offering the Uranium through oil business middlemen to Saddam under the guise of the UN "Oil for Food" Program until the US-led invasion began. What could possibly motivate the U.S. military to keep these facts a complete secret? On the face of broad pre-Invasion Intelligence failings: the US Public has been kept in the dark- believing no such facility existed. In fact it did and was operative. Unbelievably: Iraq was only months away from possessing it's own A-Bombs: and enough material to build 25 of them, rapidly negotiating Oil for Uranium from at least two known ready sources for black-market Uranium Ore! Why has the US Senate Intel. Committee kept all this SECRET? Why is it being soft-peddled against the semantics of "stockpiling" by those who know that long before a stockpile had been amassed, the US would already have long since been A-Bombed? Is the illicit Uranium now secreted in Iran? Iran's Nuclear Program as of 1998 | ...as of 2002-2005 Is Al-Qaeda trying to implement a plan to detonate a dirty bomb in an American or other Nuclear Reactor Vessel in order to hide the theft of 100 KGs+ of pure weapons-grade nuclear material? It has been recently suggested that Sheikh Rahman's first truck bomb attack on the WTC was simply to give Al Qaeda operatives a chance to gain better understanding of how to formulate plans to destroy the WTC, studying repairs to the damage caused by Rahman's bomb... QED?
