What is going on in Washington - CLOSE OUR BORDERS NOW!
http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/2007/07/fbi-iraqis-bein.html
The FBI is investigating an alleged human smuggling operation based in Chaparral, N.M., that agents say is bringing "Iraqis and other Middle Eastern" individuals across the Rio Grande from Mexico.
An FBI intelligence report distributed by the Washington, D.C. Joint Terrorism Task Force, obtained by the Blotter on ABCNews.com, says the illegal ring has been bringing Iraqis across the border illegally for more than a year.

We just need to enforce our existing laws, no more catch and release! We don't need to wait on our Federal law to do it. Insist that lawmakers in your town cooperate. Brownsville TX has a no tolerance policy now. It's up to all of us.

Every time I think about our borders I can feel my blood pressure go up. I still have a link from over a year ago wherein a state official is speaking about the regular occurrence of Middle Easterners coming over the border. Some get caught, many more do not. It's one of the reasons I get so upset with people who keep insisting we're fighting them there so they don't come here. They've BEEN coming here for a very long time. There are many reasons we are in Iraq, and many reasons we can't just up and leave en masse, but saying it's because if we stay there Al Queda will nicely stay out of our country isn't one of them. It's nothing but a talking point that needs to be given a decent burial so we can go about the business of acknowledging our weaknesses here at home (borders and ports especially) and the threat Al Queda still poses to us on our own soil.

What ABC fails to mention is who those Iraqis are. Since several thousand have already settled in the San Diego area I suspect many of them are Chaldean Catholics. It's a Catholic church which was purported to have been created by Saint Thaddeus. Those astute FBI agents and Border Patrol personnel can check and ask each of those Iraqis one question. If they can't answer it, they are not Chaldeans. The question is based on some ancient Greek phrases from the early days of Christianity:
"What is the difference between Theodokos and Christodokos?".

Border Patrol are probably being thrown in jail for trying to prevent illegals from crossing the border. Those Border should have been closed 9/12/01. IF Illegals can cross those borders so can Al Queda.
Guess we need to blame Clinton for that too?
BTW AL Queda spans many different countries not just Iraqis. One Common thing AL Queda has is that they are all Muslim.

It's only a matter of time before something terrorist related happens as a result of the joke we call a border. Where is our border security? Well, the ones that do their job get thrown in Mississippi prisons with a bunch of illegal aliens waiting to get their hands on them. Hopefully that travesty of justice is about to be remedied. As long as political correctness reigns, nothing will ever be done and common sense will never win out.

If anyone's left in the Border Patrol they'd probably rather let the illegals in than end up in Federal Prison for doing their jobs! Especially with all this PC b**s***!

The people being smuggled might want to consider that coyotes think nothing of abandoning people in closed-up trucks in the Texas heat with little or no food and water. In most cases, half the people wind up dead.

It's absolutely terrifying, I honestly feel sick when I think of the damage that our governments ie: the British and American) have done, jesus we are fvcking doomed, and it is imperative that we get this message out to every man woman and child in the free world. Every single person who wants to live to a ripe old age in partial harmony, needs to stay vigilant 24/7, stay on guard folk's, and remember united we stand and will prevail, divided we will fall domino style.

Our Border Patrol officers have their hands tied by the Government.They can do nothing but look and use Dogs to sniff cars coming into America. it is not their fault it is our Governments fault.
This hasnt been going on for 6 years more like 30 years.
