Texas Sheriffs Say Terrorists Entering US from Mexico
By Kevin Mooney
CNSNews.com Staff Writer
August 21, 2006

(CNSNews.com) - The chief law enforcement officers of several Texas counties along the southern U.S. border warn that Arabic-speaking individuals are learning Spanish and integrating into Mexican culture before paying smugglers to sneak them into the United States. The Texas Sheriffs' Border Coalition believes those individuals are likely terrorists and that drug cartels and some members of the Mexican military are helping them get across the border.

Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez of Zapata County, Texas told Cybercast News Service that Iranian currency, military badges in Arabic, jackets and other clothing are among the items that have been discovered along the banks of the Rio Grande River. The sheriff also said there are a substantial number of individuals crossing the southern border into the U.S. who are not Mexican. He described the individuals in question as well-funded and able to pay so-called "coyotes" - human smugglers - large sums of money for help gaining illegal entry into the U.S.

Although many of the non-Mexican illegal aliens are fluent in Spanish, Gonzalez said they speak with an accent that is not native.

"It's clear these people are coming in for reasons other than employment," Gonzalez said.

That sentiment is shared by Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Colo.).

"For years, Muslims and other 'Special Interest Aliens' from places other than Mexico have been streaming into the U.S. across our porous border," Tancredo told Cybercast News Service. "These people are not paying $50,000 or more a head just to 'take jobs no American will do.'

"Terrorists are working round the clock to infiltrate the United States," he added. "Congress and this administration must address this gaping hole in our national security and they must do it now."

Some of the more high profile pieces of evidence pointing to terrorist infiltration of the U.S. have been uncovered in Jim Hogg County, Texas, which experiences a high volume of smuggling activity, according to local law enforcement.

"We see patches on jackets from countries where we know al Qaeda to be active," Gonzalez explained.

The patches appear to be military badges with Arabic lettering. One patch in particular, discovered this past December, caught the attention of federal homeland security officials, according to Gonzalez and local officials familiar with the investigation.

Sheriff Wayne Jernigan of Valverde County, Texas, told members of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee in March about one patch that read "midnight mission" and displayed an airplane flying over a building heading towards a tower. Translators with DHS have said some of the various phrases and slogans on the items could mean "martyr," "way to eternal life," or "way to immortality."

Gonzalez told the House International Relations Subcommittee on International Terrorism and Nonproliferation in July that the terrorists are getting smarter.

"To avoid apprehension, we feel many of these terrorists attempt to blend in with persons of Hispanic origin when entering the country." Gonzalez stated. "We feel that terrorists are already here and continue to enter our country on a daily basis."

Sheriff Arvin West of Hudspeth County, Texas, told Cybercast News Service that he believes some Mexican soldiers are operating in concert with the drug cartels to aid the terrorists.

"There's no doubt in my mind," he said, "although the Mexican government and our government adamantly deny it."

Statistics made available through the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) show more than 40,000 illegal aliens from countries "Other Than Mexico," designated as OTMs, were apprehended by the U.S. Border Patrol in the period ranging from October 2003 to June 2004, as they attempted to cross the southwestern border. An overview of border security challenges produced through the office of Texas Gov. Rick Perry indicates that almost 120,000 OTMs were apprehended while attempting to cross into the state from January through July 2005.

Local authorities are particularly concerned about illegal aliens arriving from Special Interest Countries (SICs) where a radical version of Islam is known to flourish. Perry's office cites Iraq, Iran, Indonesia and Bangladesh among those countries. A Tancredo spokesperson said the list also includes Afghanistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and Yemen.

As Cybercast News Service previously reported an internal audit of DHS that combines the number of illegal aliens arriving from SICs with the documented instances of illegal aliens arriving from countries identified as being state sponsors of terrorism (SSTs) yields a grand total of over 90,000 such illegal aliens who have been apprehended during the five year period from fiscal year 2001 to fiscal year 2005.

The border security report delivered by Perry's office focuses attention on the "Triborder region" of Latin America, which spans an area between Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay.

"The Triborder Region is a focal point of Islamic extremism," the report states. "Al Qaeda leadership plans to use criminal alien smuggling organizations to bring terrorist operatives across the border into the U.S."

Carlos Espinosa, a press spokesman for Tancredo, said his office is aware of a training camp in Brazil that actually teaches people from outside of Latin America how they can assimilate into the Mexican culture.

"They come up as illegal aliens and disguise themselves as potential migrant workers," Espinosa said.

I'm a cook at a restaraunt and recently $70 dollars came up missing.
the owner was going to make everyone put in to pay it back like 6 dollars each, well the next day another $70 dollars came up missing. isnt it illegal to take money out of someones paycheck if he doesnt have your permission? the cooks do not even have access to the registers. he has cameras in the store but they havent been working forever and he has just never fixed them. Wouldnt it be illegal for him to take money out of everyones paycheck without their consent?>

This article pictures, quotes from, and explains a publication in 1919 of a Jewish holocaust by the Kaiser's Germany and in which the same 6 million Jews were said to have been murdered between 1914-1919, during World War One, 28 years before the Nuremberg Trial made that exact sae accusation against defeated Nazi Germany. This fantasy was repeated in the Nuremberg Trail and subsequent Military Tribunals and Star Chambers held by the Allied Armies in which there was no defense allowed, only accusations from the military courts.

My husband and I made a decision for him to join the military right before we got married. He'd asked me about it every few months for over 5 years until I said I was ok with it. Well our families STILL say something about how unfair it was of him to do that to me and the 2 kids we now have. I love him dearly and support him no matter what. He always took my feelings into consideration and says he won't reenlist if it ever bothers me. It's not so much I care what my family thinks...it's not their life. I just don't know how to respond when they start in about how he could do better outside the military.(He loves his job) By the way they are all republicans and support the military and all that could've served have done so willingly. They just worry about us. So how do I get them off my back without telling them to **** off?

It is nearly impossible for most people to come to the US legally? If you don't have money or a college degree or family members who are citizens or permanent residents, you can't come here legally, period.

Imagine your family is starving and you wait in line for two days to get a visa but you are denied because you are poor (the main reason visas are denied every day).

Would let your family starve because your principals do not allow you to break the law? Or would you do what it takes to feed them?

If you did, would that make you a criminal, would that mean that your character is flawed, that you deserve to be treated like an animal?

This is the real situation of most people who come to the US illegally. I know because I practise immigration law.

After 9-11 just about everyone had an American Flag displayed or flying on their car or home. You couldn't even buy them anywhere because all of the stores had sold out of them. The country sure seemed United back then, What happened? I mean we are still at war over what was done to this country on that day. Don't you agree that there should be more, A LOT more AMERICAN FLAGS and YELLOW RIBBONS around.

My ex-boyfriend of 11 years (whom I have 4 children with) was arrested almost 4 months ago for stealing a truck. He is in the county jail. He has not been sentenced and there is no pending court date at this point in time. How long can someone just sit there with nothing happening? Isn't there some sort of speedy trial law?
