Daily Mail: Confusion over U.S. immigration policy to blame for surge in illegal children – NOT increasing violence in Central America – claims leaked report

~ Leaked report blames misperceptions about U.S. immigration policy for the surge in unaccompanied children attempting to enter the country

~ Of 230 migrants interviewed, 219 cited the primary reason for migrating was the perception that U.S. immigration laws now granted free passes

~ Report was compiled by the El Paso Intelligence Center and meant only for law enforcement

~ Homeland Security officials previously blamed a combination of factors, including a bad economy and security concerns Crime data actually showed a dip in violence in Guatemala, El Salvador and most significantly Honduras

~ Homeland Security projects that if current trends continue, as many as 160,000 illegal children will enter the U.S. by the end of next year

~ Earlier this month the federal government launched a $1 million media campaign to try and combat the surge"

I have family that live in Guatemala. It is safe. Is there crime? Probably a lot less than in downtown Chicago!

You can watch the videos of these invaders and see the expression of happiness and relief on the faces of these mothers with children as they are loaded on to the Homeland security buses. They look like they have won the lottery.

Nothing happens by chance , The corrupt Obama administration has created this subterfuge to kill America and to transform the entire country into third world culture. They hate America and want it destroyed..

They will use the data from the last US census to figure out where to place these criminal so we all get tortured and can not live our lives in peace.

Mexico & Guatemala announce agreement to make illegal passage to U.S. easier Jul 9th 2014

Earlier this week, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Guatemalan president Otto Perez Molina held a joint press conference to formally announce a new program that will allow Guatemalan citizens to legally travel through Mexico in their effort to enter the United States illegally. Guatemala is one of three sending countries accounting for most of the illegal aliens coming across the U.S.-Mexico border during the ongoing surge. The agreement grants Guatemalans 72 hours of legal status while they make their journey to the U.S.

The "Southern Border Program to Improve Passage" will increase the number of border checkpoints along the Mexico-Guatemala border, provide medical care, and offer Guatemalans a Regional Visitor's Card. The card grants Guatemalans enough time to make the trek to Mexico's northern border.

The program will also offer protection and financial assistance for unaccompanied minors who attempt to make the journey.

Another implication of the report is that family members already in the U.S. are... organizing the travel with smugglers.

Do tell. Where did the money come from that these family members came up with? And how many of these family members are also members of the cartel families and are moving their own cartel families to Los Estadoes Unitos?
