What do you think about Iran "courting" latin american countries?

Question

Just saw this on the news today. Who says the terrorists aren't trying to come through the Mexican/US border?

Answer 1

Hi Daisy,
This fact would not surprise me in the slightest. Since America has tightened security at airports and people had to die for them to do that, they will try to find other ways to get in. It is only naturual since they have declared jihad. In my opinion, they seem to declare that often of the flimsiest of reasons. Not all Muslims are bad. I know a few in my town and they are very nice people. Moderate and tollerant. They are not extremists, who do not represent moderate Islam.
It is possible that Iran is courting other countries for purely political reasons, or ecconomic, but this could then open the door for the extremists. Am I right in saying that the leader of Iran is the one who wants to wipe Israel off the face of the earth?
I think he also mentioned he knew where their prophet's son is burried and that he will make an appearance. Scary stuff.
There is no doubt that they will court the border countries to aid in getting at America. I hope these border countries see through them.
There was a recent scandel in the UK regarding veils. A known fellon escaped wearing a full muslim women's outfit with veil and he was never stopped, never questioned, never checked, no passport! It is a disgrace and I think they should make all muslim women submit to security checks at airports. After all, if we are subject to security checks, so they should be. No one should be exempt otherwise it is discrimination. I am not unsympathetic to the fact that in their religion men not their husband or relative cannot view their face, so in this instance where possible, female security officers should check them. If nof always possible, they have to put up with it. When you come to another country you have to respect the laws, security measures, culture and other faiths of tha land. You are not above them simply because of your religion. You should also intergrate into society as well. Although you can still keep and practise your faith, that should be a given. Also here was controversy of a support teacher going to a job interview and not wearing her veil, deliberately not informing them that it was important she wear one. It was only when she got to class with the kids that she then wore it. The male teacher was unhappy with it. It is also not part of the dress code for teachers. The teacher felt that it was not conducive to good teching if she wore it. Understandably, the school board, those who interviewed her, were not happy. They felt she had lied about it and concealed the fact that it was 'supposedly' very integral to her to wear it, yet did not at the interview where there was a mixture of males and females. They found that suspicious and if it had been so important, she would have wore it. I think she did not have it on innitially is because she knew full well they would not have given her the job. and whilst that is not exactly fair, it is their right to refuse or say yes. They have the right to take on a candidate they think is best for the children. She then made a big hooha legally saying it was discrimination, but she lost he case. She was told by the tribunal that she should have been honest in the first place and the the school have the right to chose who they feel is the most suitable. I think the courts thought is was very suspect that she should conceal the veil, but suddenly wear it then make a big fuss legally afterwards. It was found out she has ties to extremists! What does that tell you?
Eli.

Answer 2

As the posters have mentioned, its not a Latin AMERICAN country because its in Asia. But I think your question is really asking, is it a Latin country at all? All filipino dialects do contain some spanish words, although often these words have different - even opposite meanings. A small part in the south of Philippines still speaks a broken version of Spanish called Chavacano. Just like all other Latin countries, the Philippines is predominately Catholic, and just like Spain, it contains a large Muslim population. However, the Philippines retains many of its native traditions, and has strong American, Chinese, and Arab influences in its culture, language, and heritage.

Your right. The Department of Homeland Security issued a report to the Congress, I believe, in October of last year cataloging the fact that Hugo Chavez of Venezuela has been getting middle eastern men Venezuelan passports, because with those passports it's easier for them to come into the u.s.

James Monroe faced a similar situation, albeit different any many aspects, when the Spanish colonies won their independence from Spain. After Napoleons fall in Europe, many European nations that disliked democracy and fear democratic uprisings in their own country joined an anti democracy alliance that swore itself to crushing democratic movements where ever they materialized in the world. At that time the King of Spain, seeking to regain Spain's lost colonies in Central and South America, requested this alliance's assistance. In addition, Russia extended its territorial claim to the 51st parallel which was in the Oregon country. Great Britain opposed Spain's retaking of their old colonies because they had developed very profitable trade with the new countries, and along with America, which has always sympathized with new formed democratic countries, extended full diplomatic recognition to the new nations.

Monroe acted, and issued an ultimatum to the European nations to stay out of the western hemisphere, it became known as the Monroe Doctrine. Europe cancelled it's assistance to Spain, Spain abandoned it's ambition to retake it's old colonies, and Russia withdrew their territorial claim. Bush needs to do something similar with both Iran, and Venezuela.

Answer 4

I have not heard whatever you are quoting, but of course we are pretty sure the terrorists are going to try to come through Mexico to the USA. Is that supposed to be a surprise question?

Answer 5

It is very smart of them. Their goal is world domination (conversion to Islam). Most Latin American countries are Catholic, Poor, third world countries with corrupt governments. What better way to start converting them to Islam than by giving aid. It worked for the US for many years.

Answer 6

If those country aren't joining hands, they might be the next target for US invasion. US would make a lame reason, skips the UN (I wonder what UN is there for?) and attacks those country for their oils.

Answer 7

Seems the Administration in Washington has forgotten the old adage to "keep your friends close, and your enemies closer."
