Middle Easterners streaming to Texas

By EDWARD HEGSTROM

Copyright 2002 Houston Chronicle Texas has one of the nation's fastest-growing Middle Eastern populations, and most of the state's immigrants live in Houston, according to a study based on census data.

Researchers at the Center for Immigration Studies say Texas' Middle Eastern population more than doubled in the last decade, to just over 100,000, including more than 52,000 in Greater Houston.

excerpt from http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/2321258/detail.html

Federal officials said a preliminary translation of the dossier indicated that it contained Iraqi intelligence reports from an "agent/asset" in the United State code-named "Sirhan," who officials said was Dumeisi.

Dumeisi has lived in the United States for about a decade and is a permanent resident alien, according to immigration records. Officials said he told them he is a Jordanian citizen born in Palestine.

Dumeisi was arrested based on a complaint that identifies him as the president and registered agent of a company that publishes an Arabic monthly periodical.

Among other things, Dumeisi was trained by Saddam Hussein's intelligence agents to use a pen with a hidden camera and microphone, according to federal officials.

They said he later used it to record an interview with a member of an Iraqi opposition group critical of Saddam Hussein.

According to the complaint, four unnamed cooperating individuals, including a self-described former Iraqi intelligence officer, also provided information about Dumeisi's activities. The three others were associated with his Arabic periodical.

FBI agents said Dumeisi was in contact with four people at Iraq's United Nations mission who were actually intelligence officers. One of the four was expelled from the country by the State Department in June 2002 on suspicion of spying, the FBI said.

Dumeisi allegedly told one of the unnamed sources that he received $2,000 or $3,000 from Iraqi intelligence to help gather information on opposition figures living in the United States.

I don't think you can arrest people for that since the Lawrence decision.

Great Find and post Tom!


FYI to the rest of you. This could cause some severe pucker factoring amongst the pro Islamofascists in America.
