They ought to be asking if all republican candidates were spied upon as well.
A year earlier Judicial Watch had already published an exposé illustrating the serious threats generated by lax security in this particular region of the southern border. An Al Qaeda terrorist (Adnan G. El Shukrijumah) on the FBIs most wanted list for years crossed back and forth into the United States from Mexico to meet fellow militant Islamists in Texas and piloted an aircraft into the Cielo Dorado airfieldabout 25 miles from Santa Teresain Anthony, New Mexico. The same Al Qaeda operative helped plan the 2009 bombing of talk show superstar Oprah Winfreys Chicago studios and the iconic Sears Tower (renamed Willis Tower), a story that Judicial Watch broke days earlier. Despite being one of the FBIs most wanted terrorists, Shukrijumah for years managed to slip in and out of the U.S. through the southern border to meet fellow militant Islamists in the El Paso region. Shukrijumah was eventually killed in an intelligence-borne operation in Pakistan, but the fact remains that he long eluded U.S. authorities by utilizing a vulnerable portion of the Mexican border region to conduct business.
We have borders for a reason. Those who would do away with them put all of us at risk.
This is the very next story at your link... good stuff. Thanks for posting.
