Texas Border Vulnerable To Terrorists

(Thanks to Hugo Chavez and Venezuelan Government issued identification documents, i.e.: what freaking good is a US-Mexican border fence when state-sponsors of terrorism like Venezuela issue false ID's to terrorists to cross the border legally?)

(CBS 11 News) DALLAS A Congressional Homeland Security report accuses Venezuela of providing support that could help terrorists infiltrate the United States through Texas’ porous border with Mexico.

The Subcommittee on Investigations of the House Homeland Security Committee found that the government of President Hugo Chavez has issued thousands of identity documents that could help terrorists elude immigration checks and illegally enter the United States.

Representative Michael McCaul, a first term Republican from Austin, chaired the subcommittee that produced the findings, “The potential is certainly there for terrorists to infiltrate the U.S. through Mexico. We apprehended five Pakistanis on the U.S. Mexico border with fraudulent Venezuelan documents.”

The report entitled, “A Line in the Sand: Confronting the Threat at the Southwest Border,” states that the number of aliens other than Mexican (OTMs) illegally crossing the border has grown at an alarming rate over the past several years. Homeland Security officials are concerned about aliens apprehended from thirty-five nations designated as “special interest” countries. Hundreds of aliens from “special interest” countries that are known to harbor terrorists or promote terrorism are routinely encountered and apprehended according to the report. The countries include Iran, Syria, Pakistan, and Afghanistan.

The McAllen border sector far outpaces the rest of the country in Special Interest Alien apprehensions. Since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, arrests of Special Interest Aliens have increased forty-one percent along the Texas/Mexico border and Texas has accounted for eighty-eight percent of the nation’s total apprehensions of Special Interest Aliens.

McCaul says Mexican drug cartels that control human smuggling networks could be unwitting accomplices to transport terrorists into the U.S., “ I don't really trust the cartels to do a background check and a screening process in terms of whom they bring into this country. I don't think they really care.”

Federal law enforcement personnel told the subcommittee’s staff that it is difficult to provide the total number of Special Interest Aliens entering the U.S. because they pay large amounts of money, between $15,000 and $60,000, to employ the more effective Mexican alien smuggling organizations and are less likely to be apprehended.

In August, an Afghani man was found swimming across the Rio Grande River in Hidalgo, Texas and last July in Jim Hogg County Border Patrol agents found a discarded jacket with patches from countries where al Qaeda is known to operate. The patches feature Arabic language martyrdom slogans that read “way to eternal life” and depict a jetliner crashing into the World Trade Center towers.

McCaul is concerned that Chavez is turning Venezuela into a staging area for terrorism in America’s backyard, “We know that Mr. Chavez in Venezuela has openly embraced the Islamic jihad world. We know that Hezbollah operatives have been given safe haven in Venezuela. So the threat is very real.”

US-Mexico Border Fence / Great Wall of Mexico

Excerpt:

Apprehensions along the southern border make up about 97-98% of the total apprehensions. Most of those apprehended near the southern border are Mexicans. Statistics are kept of those apprehended near the southern border who are “Other Than Mexicans” or “OTM’s


The number of OTM’s apprehended near the southern border has been clearly and dramatically increasing from 28,598 in 2000 to 65,814 in 2004. By another estimate over 155,000 non-Mexican individuals were apprehended trying to enter the United States along the Southwest border in fiscal year 2005.

Hugo is a huge problem. It is just and necessary always and everywhere to be vigilant in prayer for this fallen soul.

McCaul says Mexican drug cartels that control human smuggling networks could be unwitting accomplices to transport terrorists into the U.S., “ I don't really trust the cartels to do a background check and a screening process in terms of whom they bring into this country. I don't think they really care.”

True the 3 stooges (Putin, Wen and Hugo) have mega-bucks and could care less about cauterizing US with drugs or terrorist weapons.


The simple solution to scurry 2-5 million Mexicans from US back home to "México" sans deportation etc. costs, and still immigration to a very few easily captured desperados is short and sweet. Cut off the dollar to peso wires back home.

The Mexican "border war" is Soviet contrived and Bush appears to be playing both fences now. The "wall of hate and shame" was a cave-in by Bush, imho, and will do little to curb immigrants and terrorists or help republican elections. It's a bad symbol- like the wall of China, not practical and a flunky move.

The below link has a great channel 5 news report, which indicates the likelihood of hit and run strikes at the border.

Here's a bit of alarming news.
Smugglers have been caught 300 times in the past four years trying to sneak in radioactive material, which could be used to make a dirty bomb.

Mother russia, it appears, holds Hugo, the Islamic revolution, and various surrogates in bondage. I wonder if it's Putin, the politburo, kgb, or the army that calls the shots. But what's to worry, they all have the same boss, satan himself. Woops, I forgot- the kgb and politburo no longer exist. Sooner or later, they will divide amongst themselves and crawl away.

I wonder how the SCO- Soviet scissors split will emerge? I reckon the Islamic- soviet split will emerge when Russia plays pontius pilate to the emerging israeli-terrorist conflict.

The soviets will likely back "peace" and encourage and boycott oil to any nation supporting the war. Except for arms- always for sale. Hugo will comply and that will put pressure on Mexico to boycott oil to US if they support Israel.
Yes, folks- the Soviets are attacking below the belt.

Colorado Congressman Tom Tancredo says there's even a training camp in Brazil teaching Middle Easterners how to blend in to the Mexican culture.
According to government intelligence, Middle Eastern aliens from countries known to harbor terrorists are smuggled to staging areas in places like Venezuela and the tri-border region between Brazil, Argentina and Paraguay. Then they're smuggled again through Mexico and our border right into the U.S.
