Member of Al Qaida Linked Group Caught on US-Mexico Border
A man from Bangladesh was arrested last month attempting to illegally cross into the United Stats from Mexico.
Fakhrul Islam was apprehended with 13 other undocumented migrants, including a member of the Mara Salvatrucha gang, as they sought to enter the United States by crossing the Rio Grande River near Brownsville, Texas on December 4, the newspaper La Jornada reported.
The arrest has raised new concerns among US security officials about the use of the Mexican border as a transit route for terrorists entering the United States.
Mr. Islam reportedly admitted to having crossed the river illegally, according to charges presented to Border Patrol agents in Brownsville.

Still think open borders is such a great idea?
Funny how there is no evidence that Mohammad Atta and 9-1-1 had anything to do with Mexico.
((( TM Ping )))
I think this is great.
Torture him into telling us everything he knows and then dump him in solitary confinement for the rest of his life.
However, the bigger question is...
How many others have crossed the border successfully?!
We have to do something about border security...and do it now!!!
Actually there is.
Well, I'm just relieved that they're all here to work and build a better life for themselves.
Thanks, AD.
doesn't that guy know to go thru the desert so well meaning liberals will give him food and water for his journey to kill people........
Before 9/11 there was little need to sneak in through Mexico, they could just apply for a student visa and come on in.
LOL!!!!

I have a sickening feeling that there are tens-of-thousands of OTMs (middle east terrorists) already here, from freely-crossing over during the past 2-3yrs.
This is not realyl directed towards you MplsSteve, just a thought. Seeing how Mexico basically sets our border policies (that is what it looks like to me anyways), I am wondering just what hold Fox has over Bush. Whatever Fox wants Bush seems to capitulate to. Something tells me that whatever it might be it is not on the up and up.
"Still think open borders is such a great idea?"
Yeah, really. I thought Bush said that these people are only coming here to take, er, do the 'jobs that we won't do'.
Then again, I guess Bush is right, since none of us will do the job of suicide terrorism.
If any attack ever originates from the Mexican border, it will be the fault of Bush.
Yeah. They must be coming here to blow up, maim and kill the innocent people Americans aren't willing to blow up, maim or kill.
They're going to have to close the borders with overwhelming force. The only question is whether it will happen now or after a major attack.
"then dump him in solitary confinement for the rest of his life. "
TYPO!!! You meant to say "then put a bullet into his head and feed him to the alligators". At least, that's what I would've said!
The latter.
agreed........this is one that I will cut no slack for Bush or Repubs......they are cowards on this issue and we suffer
