No 'sanctuaries' for illegals

Washtington Times ^

[Happy2BMe]

Today, members of the violent street gang Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, include suspected criminals from Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico. Besides being tied to criminal acts within the United States, MS-13 is also believed to be running an alien-smuggling ring.

This presents an emerging national-security problem, especially if terrorist groups such as al Qaeda target MS-13 to help imbed its members in "cities of sanctuary." Eventually, terrorists will realize they can come to these communities to plan their next attack with relative safety.

Does this really seem reasonable, especially when we know terrorists continue to pursue American targets? The threat to the homeland remains very real. As a result, we must be vigilant, not complicit, in our response to terrorist movement.

We are our own worst enemy.

Dateline 2005: America continues to import it's own demise via a violent illegal alien revolution by refusing to enforce immigration laws.

Isn't it more accurate to say our governments, state and federal, might be our worst enemy? Who is letting them it? Who is not enforcing our borders? Who is deliberately passing more FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS (CAFTA) which will loosen our borders even more? WHO, WHO, WHO? Let's call a spade, a spade. Why is it we do not hear A SINGLE SOLITARY WORD FROM OUR "LEADERSHIP" in Washington?? Who is gagging the entire Congress (excepting Tancredo of course)?

Does this mean we can start bombing SanFransisco?

That would certainly clean up several messes at once! :)

This will be the next big issue for the 2008 election. This has to be solved. We will make some reforms before then, but they will be largely cosmetic. It will take a major push to make the change.

Our biggest problem is trying to take the issue out of the realm of "racism". Buchannan tried to push this issue in 1998, but was painted as a racist. We have to treat it as a national security issue, but critics will use the race angle for leverage.

I think the best approach is to target the border populations that face the problems with illegal immigration (TX, NM, AS, & CA) and get them (Congressmen, Senators, & state legislators) to raise the issue as a national security issue. There is some recent effort to do this already in CA.

I wonder who paid who to keep Congress quiet?

Are all of our representatives on the take, except
one or two?

Why is my country being given up by my representatives
and why are my representatives showing a white flag of
surrender?

I would like some answers, yet no answers will come
out of Washington, DC., of that comment I'm certain.

And WHO is putting the gag on them? I cannot believe that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM IS DEAF AND DUMB TO THIS ISSUE!!! This is all just too scary.

Thanks for the ping.

Porter Goss couldn't have been clearer in his assessment that terrorists would likely try to smuggle a nuclear device or dirty bomb across the border. When theres big money involved...MS-13 will gladly hookup with Middle East based well financed operatives.

Smuggling of both men and materials is possible due to the large unsecured areas and the large influx of people. They can hide materials in plain site, and setup their smuggling infrastructure using illegals as a backbone.

The situation will be even more critical once Iran gets full nuclear capabilities...at that point it will be more than just a dirty bomb.

You cant spin it any more...act and act now.

I hope you are correct and our reps aren't blind, dumb, and deaf on this issue, yet where are and which of our reps are speaking up concerning this issue. Every American should wonder if we have already surrendered and lost the WOT, per the manner in which our reps are acting and displaying total disdain for securing our borders.

"We have Nicaragua, soon we will have El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Costa Rica, and Mexico. One day, tomorrow or five years or fifteen years from now, we're going to take 5 to 10 million Mexicans and they are going into Dallas, into El Paso, into Houston, into New Mexico, into San Diego, and each one will have embedded in his mind the idea of killing ten Americans." --Thomas Borge, Nicaragua Interior Minister as quoted in the Washington Times, March 27, 1985

It's got to be about money and power. That's the only thing that politicians care about. They stop illegals, and the sub-servant base dries up. Thus the economy takes a short time dive. No politician seems to care about the long term problem. The Balkanization of America.

Precisely. This is the mode Washington is in -- pure short term political gain and to hell with the future of America. Voters need to carry that REALITY to the voting booth and as far as I am concerned, it is time for a strong THIRD PARTY that is willing to fight for, and preserve America as it was defined in our treasured documents.

You beat me to placing the blame where it belongs....I am not my worst enemy...our "leaders" are. Until we can change the people who are willing to run for office(who some would call "radicals")into people who don't give a rat's ass what the American hating judges, the MSM, the ACLU et al say, and who are willing to tell these people to go 'f themselves AND have not a politically correct bone in their body..we are doomed. If the same old people run year after year, and nobody opposes them, we will have the same old policies and practices running things.

We need to draft some young, agressive Freepers to run for Congress...I know that we have some here that would do fine...Congressman Billybob et al

The American Revolution was only supported by 1/3 of the population. We easily have that now.

That is correct, and a new political party of REAL AMERICANS, could be that one third.

Sorry, the second line should read

It's just hard to comprehend how ANYONE could turn a blind eye to such a dangerous situation. ANYONE who would allow a situation to exist knowing that it could result in the deaths of so many Americans is worse than ANY of those terrorists!

NM has a law that states that ANYONE who fails to act to prevent a person's death or harm, can be arrested for contributory negligence simply for their inaction. It seems to me that our congresscritters who have failed to protect us should be brought up on charges.

Eventually, terrorists will realize they can come to these communities to plan their next attack with relative safety.

Eventually? My guess is they figured it out long ago.
