Not at All Good

#1 Postby Aslkahuna » Tue Nov 16, 2004 12:23 am

KVOA-TV reported tonight that TIME Magazine is reporting that an AQ operative captured in Pakistan has revealed that AQ has plans to recruit smugglers in Mexico to smuggle in nuclear materials and devices plus operatives into the US across the Mexican Border taking clear notice that our southern Border is a total sieve. It was also reported that a crop duster aircraft near San Diego has been stolen and flown into Mexico. The
Department of Homeland Insecurity is concerned since the aircraft could be used for a chemical or bio attack.

I get so mad when I read stuff like this. I know this is very simplisitic, but why don't the freaking terrorists scumbags get a life and leave innocent people alone?

They don't leave innocent people alone, because to them killing innocent people IS their life. Forget the political BS, terrorists are in it for the blood lust only. This is why they should be tracked down and exterminated at every level-from the street gangs terrorizing neighborhoods to AQ.

Do you think????? Been saying that for a long time. The U.S border along Mexico is so easy to cross and the Government don't seem to care......

The government cares, but there's so much to do. There was an interview with a Border Patrol guy (think he was head of the union or something) that said while their number of slots has increased, there's a hiring freeze. Some good that does.

I know they're planning to use Predator UAVs but unless they're armed, I dont know what good that does.

They are flying the Hunter UAV out of Fort Huachuca now for Border Surveillance. However, you will never see them flying the Predators with the Hellfires along the Border because the Mexican Government wouldn't take kindly to us blowing away a bunch of their smugglers and we have to be nice to Vicente. It's just a matter of time before Open Season is declared on illegals down here. The reason for the hiring freeze for the BP is because Congress is too lazy to get off their dead *** to pass the Appropriation Bills on time and for that we can blame BOTH Parties. Having had to fight this Budget process when I was in Civil Service has made me very anti-Congress.

Yea they have plans and have been bringing people & equipment in for awhile. In the end it will be dealt with by those in the area. Ranch Rescue tried but didn't get much of a thank you from D.C.

After watching the Canadian policy ("let 'em all in, don't bother checking ID's") explained by a former Canadian intel official on "O'Reilly Factor", we got it coming from north and south...and Montreal is reported as being an Islamic terror hotbed.
