Puerto Rico has a pretty large Arab/Muslim community. There's 5,000 to 6,000 living in the town of Rio Piedras, alone. Some of them made some pretty extreme and even hateful comments after 9/11.

PUERTO RICO: Arabs point out flaws of U.S. Policies in Mideast

A large percentage of these Arab/Muslims are store owners and bring in containers of merchandise all the time.

There are 17 U.S. military facilities and many federal government buildings in Puerto Rico.

There are groups in Puerto Rico, Los Macheteros, that have committed acts of terrorism in the past and that are still advocating terror, today. Clinton just released a bunch of them, as one of his final, patriotic acts.

A Navy convoy on the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico has already been fire bombed by members of a Marxist/Independence student group.

I wouldn't be surprised, if Al Queda was successful in recruiting alot of terrorist trainees of Puerto Rican descent.

Sorry everyone, this is where this post was meant to go.

This thread has almost 900 posts and no-one else has mentioned that an American citizen, of Puerto Rican descent, acting as a terrorist is not a new phenomenon. Bill Clinton recently pardoned 17 of them, prior to his leaving office.

I'm dying to ask why no one has brought up the Clinton pardon of the 17 Puerto Rican Terrorists?

Here's an article, from August 9, 2001, about 4 more Puerto Rican terrorists that were arrested after they FIRE BOMBED a Navy convoy on the island of Vieques, Puerto Rico.

4 Protesters held for allegedly throwing Molotov cocktails at Navy on Vieques!

There is a significant percentage of Puerto Ricans on the island and stateside that do not feel any allegiance to the United States, harbor a long-festering resentment of the USA and wish us harm.

There is a terrorist group on the island, Los Macheteros, that has been threatening terrorist acts against United States property and non-Puerto Rican Americans for decades.

I wouldn't be surprised, if significant inroads have been made by ME terrorist organizations to recruit from the ranks of the Macheteros and the Marxist/Independence student groups.

This island should be gone through from one end to the other, by our anti-terrorist units, and all members of the Macheteros rounded up and interrogated. The Marxist/Independentistas and Arab/Puerto Rican community should be checked out, too.

Here's some comments made by a few members of the Puerto Rican/Arab community, from the town of Rio Piedras, just days after 9/11.

Puerto Rico: Arabs point out flaws of U.S. Policies in Mideast!

Puerto Rico is easy to enter and, from there, the rest of the United States is just an airplane or boat ride away. It's estimated that as much as 45% of all illegal, recreational narcotics entering the United States come through Puerto Rico.

What else could be in those containers?!!
