The 940th Fox News alert today.

[Dog]

Hmmmmm.

[John Jorsett]

Sitting here in San Diego (right next door to Tijuana), this was of more than passing interest.

[GEC]

If they're not Caldean Christians, does this mean that we can start the bombing pretty much whenever we want to now?

[RonF]

Aziz claims to be a Chaldean Christian.

[colorado tanker]

Tarek Aziz is a Chaldean Christian. Doesn't sound like persecution to me.

[Bigg Red]

Immigration authorities have sent the Iraqis back to Mexico City for questioning.

Gee, is that a smart move? They'll just pay off the corrupt Mexican authorities and get escorted in through some other hole in the border.

Close and lock the gates NOW!

[Flyer]

Iraqi citizens who they believe intended to cross into the United States from Tijuana

LAUGH! They are SO wrong. Only hard working Mexicans that want to make a better life come across our southern border.

If they're not Caldean Christians will they decide they are after they or their lawyer reads this article?

[Spiff]

Why did this make a Fox News Alert when we've had several Iranians, Iraqis, Yemenis, etc. stopped after entering the U.S. in Cochise County, Arizona since 9/11? Why is this incident suddenly news? The other incidents weren't newsworthy?

Well, for whatever reason it made it, I hope these events - which are happening all the time - start to make national news more often. Maybe Washington (yes, that includes George Bush) will get their heads out of their collective butts and seal this damned border.

[Happy2BMe]

The initial word is they are Caldean Christians fleeing Iraqi persecution.

Quite possible, and on a side note, Christians are bracing for a regime change in Iraq and the "unleashing" of a jihad on them inside that God-forsaken place.

Still developing.

[DeFault User]

Just send their mail to the Tijuana Jail. And there they'll stay stay cause ain't no one gonna pay their bail.

(apologies to the Kingston Trio)

[Emeraldgold]

The reason that were captured is because none of them could speak Spanish.

[arly]

what did they do mix in with the 2,000 illegal mexicans trying to come in ?

[ErnBatavia]

claimed to be German citizens

Yeah, like Abdul and Achmed look like the Katzenjammer Kids.

[pollywog]

Living in Los Angeles, this also gives me the queebies!!...I really wish that Tom Ridge would take a tall look at closing the borders at least temporarily!! Asking us to be "AWARE" of terriorists around us, is like saying to our children, " there is a prowler on the loose. Let us be careful".....and then going on to bed with open windows and doors!!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Officials are trying to determine whether the Iraqis might be Caldean Christians, a group which claims it faces persecution in Iraq."

A likely story...........

The one woman in the bunch makes me very suspicious. They may think that having a grrrrrl along makes them seem more like bona fide persecuted Christians, but I'm not buying it. Claiming to be German first also sets off my terrorist antenna. I hope they keep this crew in Mexico City. It's a good Christian country, should be good enough for the Iraqis if they are seeking sanctuary from persecution.
