Mexico to Draft UN Resolution against Border Fence

In an attempt to gain world agreement that the US has no right to protect its borders, Mexico announced this week that it will present a resolution to the UN calling for condemnation of the US-Mexico border fence.

Mexican Ambassador Luis Alfonso de Alba advised that the resolution will contain language stating that if the US does not continue to allow illegal aliens into that country, they will be committing “human rights offenses”.

After the US Senate approved it, President Bush authorized the border security fence bill, this week. Mexico’s President Vicente Fox compared the fence to the Berlin wall and called the fence “shameful”.

Although Mexico has tough immigration laws of its own, it denounces the
US for attempting to protect its own citizens and maintain its sovereignty.

Grow a Big Set of Ears and Listen

Texas sheriffs slam inaction on border

A coalition of Texas sheriffs says the Department of Homeland Security has been "doing a lot of talking" about securing the nation's borders, but America's Southwest continues to be overrun with illegal aliens, illicit drugs and rising violence.

"Maybe the time has come to do some listening," the coalition said in a statement, adding that the "sound of honest dialogue from Texas is reverberating from El Paso to Brownsville . . . and the border is not yet secure."

The Texas Border Sheriff's Coalition, whose jurisdictions include the 1,200-mile U.S.-Mexico border, says it is talking with state leaders "about what they are doing, not what they plan to do when political currents change."

Overwhelmed by a flood of illegal aliens and drugs along with increasing border violence, the coalition formed to seek funding from federal and state officials to help pay for rapidly escalating border-enforcement costs.

Zapata County, Texas, Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez Jr., who has fewer than two dozen deputies to patrol nearly 1,000 square miles, including 60 miles of Texas-Mexico border, said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff's assertion that the United States is making progress in the war on terror on the border is misleading.
- - -
"The reduction of apprehensions and seizures that Mr. Chertoff talks about comes as a result of transferring many agents away from Texas to other states," said sheriff Gonzalez.

"When you have less vigilance, obviously you are going to have less apprehensions and seizures."

The sheriff said the coalition "thanks" the National Guard troops for what they are doing, but questioned limiting troops to a support role. The troops are not authorized to perform law-enforcement duties, only to call the Border Patrol when they spot illegal activity.

"The measured success is based on politics," he said.
These great Americans have been asked to serve in a role that paints a picture of defense. Boots on the ground encountering criminal activity need to act, not react. Calling in a crime to law enforcement by regular citizens happens every day.

Forcing Guard members into this role is a discredit to the work they perform outside the boundaries of this country.
Sheriff Gonzalez also had words of advice for Mr. Chertoff:
If you want to hear the sound of people working hard, take a trip to Texas, keep your mouth closed for a few minutes, grow a big set of ears and listen. You'll hear that crime is down because extra sheriffs' units are patrolling the broken borders.
Much of the coalition's concerns center on increased incidents of violence along the border because of alien and drug smugglers, much of it targeting U.S. law-enforcement authorities.

Last week the U.S. ambassador to Mexico, Tony Garza, issued a stern warning to Americans planning to visit that country, asking them to exercise extreme caution because of "the rising level of brutal violence" south of the Rio Grande.

Elegant Sentiments From Charming People?
Go back to Boston! Go back to Plymouth Rock, Pilgrims! Get out! We are the future. You are old and tired. Go on. We have beaten you. Leave like beaten rats. You old white people. It is your duty to die . . . Through love of having children, we are going to take over.

Good Sportsmanship?
On February 15, 1998, the U.S. and Mexican soccer teams met at the Los
Angeles Coliseum. The crowd was overwhelmingly pro-Mexican even though most lived in this country. They booed during the National Anthem and U.S. flags were held upside down.

As the match progressed, supporters of the U.S. team were insulted, pelted with projectiles, punched and spat upon. Beer and trash were thrown at the U.S. players before and after the match. The coach of the U.S. team, Steve Sampson said, "This was the most painful experience I have ever had in this profession."

Equal Opportunity?
Did you know that immigrants from Mexico and other non-European countries can come to this country and get preferences in jobs, education, and government contracts? It's called affirmative action or racial privilege.

Recently, a vote was taken in the U.S. Congress to end this practice. It was defeated. Every single Democratic senator except Ernest Hollings voted to maintain special privileges for Hispanic, Asian and African immigrants. They were joined by thirteen Republicans.

Corporate America has signed on to the idea that minorities and third world immigrants should get special, privileged status. Some examples are Exxon, Texaco, Merrill Lynch, Boeing, Paine Weber, Starbucks and many more.

Justice For All?
Did you know that Mexico regularly intercedes on the side of the defense in criminal cases involving Mexican nationals? Did you know that Mexico has NEVER extradited a Mexican national accused of murder in the U.S. in spite of agreements to do so?

According to the L.A. Times, Orange County, California is home to 275 gangs with 17,000 members; 98% of which are Mexican and Asian. How's your county doing?
A Boon To Education?
"Imagine teachers in classes containing 30-40 students of widely varying attention spans and motivation, many of whom aren't fluent in English. Educators seek learning materials likely to reach the majority of students and that means fewer words and math problems and more pictures and multicultural references."

When I was young, I remember hearing about the immigrants that came through Ellis Island. They wanted to learn English. They wanted to breath free. They wanted to become Americans. Now too many immigrants come here with demands.

They demand to be taught in their own language. They demand special privileges-- affirmative action. They demand ethnic studies that glorify their culture. The schools have rewritten US History
to accommodate these demands.

What is wrong with making it mandatory that everyone receiving social benefits such as welfare, food stamps, health care, unemployment insurance, etc., be United States citizens?

Well, it would do nothing but delay the inevitable. A sizable clique of politicians are determined to confer citizenship upon this rabble through amnesty or some other device.

These traitorous dogs are betraying not only the citizens of this country, but its culture
and heritage as well. They are subject to influence by various lobbies including those promoting a global agenda, and are willing to vote for or against any law in order to
collect their 30 pieces of silver. - :worried:

Mexidata.info - 08/07/06
by Allan Wall

With all the news coverage of the Mexican post-election contention and the ongoing Middle East crises, a recent diplomatic tiff between Israel and Mexico was mostly ignored. But it raises some interesting questions.

It all began when an ad critical of Israel, signed by prominent Mexican intellectuals and magnates, appeared in the Mexican media.

David Dadonn, Israeli ambassador to Mexico, attacked it, asserting that, by placing all the blame on Israel, the statement encouraged terrorism.

For this Dadonn was officially rebuked by the Mexican Foreign Ministry, the SRE, for overstepping his bounds as a diplomat.

Citing article 41 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, SRE spokesman Joel Hernandez said that “The Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations establishes the limits for the conduct of diplomatic representatives … every diplomatic agent must conduct himself with respect to the laws and regulations of the host nation….”

It’s a well-known fact that the Mexican government is zealous to defend its sovereignty. There’s nothing wrong with that. But the conduct of much Mexican diplomatic activity in the United States often crosses the line, going far beyond anything this Israeli ambassador in Mexico ever did.

Certainly you can’t fault Mexican diplomats for defending Mexican citizens. However, they quite frequently overstep their legitimate diplomatic functions to meddle in internal U.S. politics, openly working to impact U.S. legislation.

In California, Mexican consuls have actually met with that state’s Latino legislators to discuss immigration-related legislation. As well, Derbez has met with a California legislator to discuss the granting of driver’s licenses to illegal immigrants.

In several states, including California, Colorado and Georgia, Mexican diplomats have spoken out against state and local legislation related to immigration. This seems to be a clear violation of the Vienna Convention that Mexico invoked in its dispute with Israel.

When Eisenhower Was President . . .

CSM 07/06/06
by John Dillin
George Bush isn't the first Republican president to face a full-blown immigration crisis on the US-Mexican border. Ike's solution was simple and effective: 1.seal the border and 2.send them home.


Fifty-three years ago, when newly elected Dwight Eisenhower moved into the White House, America's southern frontier was as porous as a spaghetti sieve. As many as 3 million illegal migrants had walked and waded northward over a period of several years for jobs in California, Arizona, Texas, and points beyond.

President Eisenhower cut off this illegal traffic. He did it quickly and decisively with only 1,075
United States Border Patrol agents - less than one-tenth of today's force. The operation is still
highly praised among veterans of the Border Patrol.

In 1954, Ike appointed retired Gen. Joseph "Jumpin' Joe" Swing, a former West Point classmate and veteran of the 101st Airborne, as the new INS commissioner.

Influential politicians, including Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson (D) of Texas and Sen. Pat McCarran (D) of Nevada, favored open borders, and were dead set against strong border enforcement, Brownell said.


But General Swing's close connections to the president shielded him - and the Border Patrol - from meddling by powerful political and corporate interests.

One of Swing's first decisive acts was to transfer certain entrenched immigration officials out of the border area to other regions of the country where their political connections with people such as Senator Johnson would have no effect.

Then on June 17, 1954, what was called Operation Wetback began.

Because political resistance was lower in California and Arizona, the roundup of aliens began there. Some 750 agents swept northward through agricultural areas with a goal of 1,000 apprehensions a day. By the end of July, over 50,000 aliens were caught in the two states. Another 488,000, fearing arrest, had fled the country.

By mid-July, the crackdown extended northward into Utah, Nevada, and Idaho, and eastward to Texas. By September, 80,000 had been taken into custody in Texas, and an estimated 500,000 to 700,000 illegals had left the Lone Star State voluntarily.

Unlike today, Mexicans caught in the roundup were not simply released at the border, where they could easily reenter the US. To discourage their return, Swing arranged for buses and trains to take many aliens deep within Mexico before being set free.

Tens of thousands more were put aboard two hired ships, the Emancipation and the Mercurio. The ships ferried the aliens from Port Isabel, Texas, to Vera Cruz, Mexico, more than 500 miles south. The sea voyage was "a rough trip, and they did not like it," says Don Coppock, who worked his way up from Border Patrolman in 1941 to eventually head the Border Patrol from 1960 to 1973.

There are now said to be 12 million to 20 million illegal aliens in the US. Of the Mexicans who live here, an estimated 85 percent are here illegally.

Stealth Amnesty?

World Net Daily 06/13/06
by Pat Buchanan

Addressing a gathering of Hispanics last week, President Bush declared: "There are those here in Washington who say, 'Why don't we just find the folks and send them home.' That ain't gonna work."

Well, deportation certainly "ain't gonna work" if the chief law-enforcement officer of the United States refuses to enforce the law, as Bush has refused for five years.

But as is his custom, President Bush is attacking a straw man. Few in this debate call for creation of a national police to begin Palmer Raid roundups of nannies. The agreed-upon strategy for dealing with this crisis of Bush's creation is, in a word, attrition.

The Solution
The crucial steps are these. Build a fence along the 2,000-mile border to stop the flood. End welfare benefits to illegal aliens, except emergency medical treatment. Vigorously prosecute employers who hire illegals. Cease granting automatic citizenship to "anchor babies" of illegals who sneak across the border to have them. Take care of mother and child; then put them on a bus back home.

Turn off the magnets, and the illegals will not come. Cut off the benefits, and they will not stay. In five years, the crisis will be over.

The Good News
As this is what America wants, the Bush-Kennedy bill that came out of the Senate – providing amnesty to almost all the 12 million to 20 million illegals here and a blanket pardon for the scofflaw businesses that have hired them – is dead. It simply cannot pass the House.

The report by Heritage Foundation expert Robert Rector, who estimated the Senate bill could mean 66 million more immigrants in the next 20 years, delivered the coup de grace.

But because the Senate bill cannot pass the House does not mean Bush, the ethnic lobbies and corporate America have given up.

The Bad News
Which brings us to the Pence plan, named for the conservative congressman from Indiana who heads the House Republican Conference and was the 2005 Man of the Year to the conservative Human Events weekly.

In "The Godfather," Don Corleone warns his son Michael that, after he dies, someone inside the family will come to Michael with an offer of peace from the Barzinis, who murdered Michael's brother. Whoever brings you the offer, Don Corleone warns his son, will have betrayed you. Tessio, lifetime friend and high-ranking captain of the Corleones, comes to Michael with Barzini's offer.
A mistake.

Rep. Mike Pence appears to have accepted the Tessio role in the great immigration battle of 2006.

As Bush backs away from the Senate bill ("we don't have to choose between the extremes – there's a rational middle ground"), Pence uses identical rhetoric to describe his plan, now being hailed by Newt Gingrich, Gary Bauer, David Keene of the American Conservative Union and The American Spectator. It looks like the fix is in.

Pence calls his plan a "middle ground" proposal, a "no amnesty immigration reform" in which "securing our border is the first step."

This is fraudulent. At the heart of the Pence plan is amnesty. Illegal aliens here return to Mexico for one week with an assurance they can come back to their jobs. Down there, they visit "Ellis Island Centers" to register as "guest workers" and return with "work permits." The illegal are made legal and put on a path to citizenship.

The only difference between the Pence plan and the Kennedy-Bush amnesty is the one-week vacation employers would happily fund, as it means blanket amnesty for them as well as their illegal hires.

What makes the Pence plan insidious is that Mike Pence has an unimpeachable pedigree. What makes his plan a grave problem is that even Rep. James Sensenbrenner, the Horatius at the Bridge in this battle, is speaking favorably of it.

Why
Why is Pence proposing capitulation at the moment Americans are looking to the Republican House as their last, best hope to kill the Senate amnesty, end the "guest-worker" scam and get control of America's borders before we lose our country?

Answer: The forces in Washington pushing for an amnesty deal, by whatever name, are immense – the White House, the ethnic lobbies, the Big Media, mainstream churches, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the "conservative" front groups and foundations they finance, and corporate contributors to congressmen who fear law enforcement. Then there is a Democratic Party that voted 10-to-one in the Senate for amnesty, as it looks to legalized aliens as future voters to bury the conservative cause forever in this city.

Anyone who thinks the establishment has given up because it has lost the country does not know it. Behind closed doors, deals are even now being discussed for a "compromise" bill that will give GOP congressmen cover for selling out the cause for which they bravely voted in December. - :worried:

If the House buys the Pence plan, it will be the end of Republican control of the House in November and the end of Mike Pence as a rising star of the GOP. But that will not matter.
For the consequences for the country will be irremediable and infinitely worse. - :worried:

Have You Heard About Aztlan?

Friday, 2. June 2006, 10:06:22

, ,


This is a picture of illegal aliens (Mexicans) having a parade along a main thoroughfare in Los Angeles. Look at the banner they are carrying. On the right hand side is a white shape which represents the outline of their new country -- Aztlan.

If you examine the map of Aztlan below, you'll notice that it includes Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, and Colorado.

So, people from a foreign country invade the United States by sneaking across the border, often under cover of night. They are welcomed into the fold by all the muchachos and muchachas who have preceded them. They like it here. And why shouldn't they? Their living expenses are almost nil.

They get housing from HUD, food stamps from USDA, health care from Medicaid, education from the local school district: "Si senor, this place it is very much to our liking. Maybe we will stay here for a long time. And our cousin Pablo, we will tell him to bring his family here too!"

I doubt if it even crosses their mind that these goods and services are being provided by money taken from the paychecks of the working citizens of this country. And if you're waiting for any of these invaders to approach you and say thank you, well, you may have a very long wait indeed.

But there's no waiting for a parade, no sir! Especially a parade to celebrate their newly acquired territory, their annexation of the southwestern part of our country -- Aztlan!


Some of you may be thinking this "annexation" is preposterous, a fancy of the imagination by some over zealous college kids from south of the border. This is not something that could really happen in reality, right? There are laws to prevent this sort of thing from happening, aren't there?

Please understand, things happen in different ways. Whether it is annexed officially or unofficially, what does it matter if the outcome is the same? In either case you are going to get an overwhelming dose of Mexico dumped on you -- a suffocating dose which will permeate your life and the lives of your children.

Do you want your kids to come home from school and tell you what they learned about Pancho Villa and all those lousy gringos? Do you want to subject them to a school lunch of tamales and enchaladas five days a week? Probably not.

In order to escape this odious deluge many people have opted to relinquish their homes and relocate to another city, another state. It's happening daily and reflects the desperation of citizens who simply want to live among people who look and talk like themselves, among people with whom they share a common culture and heritage, a natural affinity.

And the old homesteads? Not to worry! They are quickly reoccupied by the never ending stream of people from south of the border. They abide and they procreate. And they rejoice upon seeing yet another of their compadres on the school board, the police board, in city hall, the state capitol. Then one day you wake up and there it is -- Aztlan!


Oh yes, the laws! Do we have laws which prevent foreigners from annexing part (or all) of our country? Do we have laws which prevent foreigners from crossing our border without permission? I thought we did, didn't you? But what good are laws if they aren't enforced?

It should be clear by now that the people administering the United States government don't want to stop illegals from entering our country, nor do they want to deport the illegals who are already here. Period.

These people care nothing about laws which do not benefit themselves or foster their global agenda. Through rampant immigration (legal or illegal) they seek to destroy our unity. And it is our unity which is our strength.

So what can we do about this annexation? Who can we turn to for help? Certainly not the Federal government. I hate to say it, but we may suffer the same fate as the Palestinians who underwent a similar indignity when part of their country was annexed by Israel forty years ago.

Both the World Court and the United Nations ruled the annexation of East Jerusalem unlawful. Yet to this day, nothing has been done to correct this injustice. And, in the absence of a hero, nothing will.

The President's Immigration Address
by Cal Thomas - May 17, 2006
Throughout his address, the president kept referring to the immigrants and their rights and desires.

What about those of us born in America, or who legally immigrated to this country? Do we have a right to preserve the nation the way it was handed down to us, with our English language, our culture and our loyalty to America first with no agenda other than this country?

According to Robert Rector, senior policy analyst for The Heritage Foundation, the 614 page Senate bill would allow up to 193 million new legal immigrants into the United States in the next twenty years. Such a staggering number comprises 60 percent of the current U.S. population.

This isn’t about “fairness,” or being a “welcoming society.” If anything close to the current Senate bill passes, we will be a different nation.

Senator Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican, says the Senate bill would make immigration to the United States an “entitlement.” Sessions told The Washington Times, “The decision as to who may come will almost totally be controlled by the desire of the individuals who wish to immigrate to the United States rather than the United States government.”

President Bush employed the classic “melting pot” metaphor, but changing the character and culture of America through uncontrolled immigration – legal or not – would drop a glacier in the pot that would never melt,

This is more about politics and votes. It goes to the nature of who and what we are. Current citizens had better make sure this is not an invasion masquerading as immigration.

On the Edge of Chaos

Thursday, 18. May 2006, 05:40:31

Many Mexicans fear their nation is on the edge of chaos. Some attribute this situation directly to ineffective leadership by president Vicente Fox and there is speculation he may not fare well in the forthcoming election. It would, perhaps, behoove Mr. Fox to devote more time to the internal affairs of his own country and less time to the internal affairs of the United States.
The Daily News - 5/17/06
by Julie Watson

MEXICO CITY -- Police enraged by the kidnapping of six officers club unarmed detainees. A bloody battle between steelworkers and police leaves two miners dead. Drug lords post the heads of decapitated police on a fence to show who's in charge.

Security is the top concern for Mexicans, and Fox has struggled to reform Mexico's notoriously corrupt police. Meanwhile, drug-related bloodshed has accelerated, with some cities seeing
killings almost daily.

In April, suspected drug lords posted the heads of two police officers on a wall outside a government building where four drug traffickers died in a Jan. 27 shootout with officers in the
Pacific resort of Acapulco.

Last week, Zapatista rebel leader Marcos said Mexico was in a "state of rage," and warned that tensions were similar to those that preceded the Zapatistas' brief armed uprising in January 1994
in the southern state of Chiapas.

The masked leader[Marcos] said a May 3 clash that left a teenager dead and scores injured in
San Salvador Atenco, 15 miles northeast of Mexico City, is an example of the growing tensions.

Marcos has been leading nearly daily demonstrations in the town following the incident, which began when a radical group of townspeople kidnapped and beat six policemen in a dispute over unlicensed flower vendors.

The clash followed another bloody battle between steelworkers and police trying to break up an "illegal" strike at a plant in Lazaro Cardenas last month. Unions later threatened to shut down the country.

George Grayson, an expert on Mexico at William & Mary College, said the violence reflects Fox's
lack of leadership: "The state has become much weaker under his watch."

Gerardo Aranda, a tourism guide in Mexico City, said he doesn't know who he will vote for.

"No one really knows now what could happen next," he said. "All the candidates are bad. There
is so much anger toward the government, everyone is against everything."

Mexican Coke: It Can Be Deadly

Thursday, 18. May 2006, 03:02:37


Play Midi

AFP - 5/17/06

The state of California and the city of Los Angeles sued the Coca-Cola company claiming Coke made in Mexico contains lead.

The lawsuit claims that elevated levels of lead have been detected in the paint used to decorate the outside of glass Coca-Cola bottles, as well as in the fizzy drink itself.

According to the lawsuit:

"The contents of the bottles of Mexican Coke also frequently contain elevated lead levels, which is likely due to the lead in the paint decorations contaminating the beverage during processing at the Mexican facilities where the soft drinks are manufactured and bottled."

"Millions of bottles of this product have been handled and consumed by Californians over the past four years without any warning of the danger they pose."

Coca-Cola bottled in Mexico is sold in large volumes in California. Company officials reportedly knew that consumers were being exposed to unsafe levels of lead from their product.

The Mexican-bottled version of the soft drink is sweeter than its US counterpart, and is imported to fill demand from the huge Mexican population in California.

Mum, Zip, and Tick A Lock !

Monday, 15. May 2006, 20:58:24

, , ,

Dear George Bush,

My morning paper informs me you're going on TV tonight and make a speech about sending thousands of national guard troops to the Mexican border. Make sure you tell all those troops to bring a shovel with them. Civilians in Arizona have already started working on the fence and they could sure use some help.

What? You're not sending them there to help build the fence? Why not? No wait, let me see if I can figure it out on my own.

You don't really care about the citizens of this country who are being plagued by millions of illegal aliens. You've admitted that you want the illegals to remain here. And I, along with millions of other citizens, suspect you would like to see even more of them.

But most of the citizens and some of the politicians have been clamoring for action -- even republicans. And elections are only six months away! What are your options? Well, you could go ahead and build a 2,000 mile long fence, of course. But that would be a permanent solution, wouldn't it. No, that won't do.

You want to keep your options open. Besides, a permanent solution (permanent fence) could possibly hinder your multicultural globalist agenda a little further on down the road. So what excuse can you give for not wanting to build a fence along the border, for not wanting a permanent solution to this problem?

Well, you could say that a fence would be too costly. But no one would believe you. Thanks to the darn internet, too many people know that your spending a billion dollars a day of their tax money on "no win" wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Hmmm. What to do, what to do!

Say, I know! When you make your speech tonight, don't even mention the word fence. You can try to give the impression that a fence is not a viable option. You can try to convey the idea that anyone who thinks it is a viable option, is just plain cukoo.

Just skip right over the idea of a fence and move on. I'll bet a lot of them won't even notice. And a lot of them who do notice won't say anything because, because . . . because you're the president! Yeah!

So listen, George Mr. Bush, go ahead and start your speech in the usual way. You know: "My fellow Americans blah blah Freedom blah blah Democracy blah blah etc." And then move straight on to your "National Guard" thing.

Gosh, I hope no one realizes that national guard troops can be ordered to the border just as readily as they can be ordered away from the border. All it takes is a few strokes of the presidential pen.

I mean, what if an important emergency pops up and the troops guarding the border suddenly need to go to the other side of the world or to Iran or some place like that? Well, they'll just have to leave the border and go -- for reasons of "national security", of course. Don't forget to say "national security". The citizens will know what that means. They always do.

In the meantime it's mum, zip, and tick a lock on the "f" word. Okay?

U.S. Informs Mexico on Minuteman Patrols

Thursday, 11. May 2006, 11:15:05

, , ,

DailyBulletin.com
by Sara A. Carter
While Minuteman keeps an eye out for illegal aliens, the Border Patrol has been ordered to keep an eye out for Minuteman -- and informing the Mexican government where they are.
According to three documents on the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site, the U.S. Border Patrol is to notify the Mexican government as to the location of Minutemen and other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in apprehending illegal immigrants -- and if and when violence is used against border crossers.

A U.S. Customs and Border Protection spokesman confirmed the notification process, describing it as a standard procedure meant to reassure the Mexican government that migrants' [illegal alien's] rights are being observed.

"It's not a secret where the Minuteman volunteers are going to be," Mario Martinez said Monday.

"This ... simply makes two basic statements -- that we will not allow any lawlessness of any type, and that if an alien is encountered by a Minuteman or arrested by the Minuteman, then we will allow that government to interview the person."

Now here's a couple of basic statements for you, Mario.

The "type of lawlessness" you need to be concerned about is the lawlessness of these riffraff aliens crossing the border illegally. In case you haven't noticed, they are strutting across the border every day by the thousands.

Sorry to burst your balloon Mario, but you have no authority to allow or not allow the Mexican government anything. The Mexican government will do whatever it wants to do. It doesn't need permission from you or the border patrol or the U.S. government. If the Mexican government violates any laws of the United States, it will suffer the consequences. It's as simple as that.

Now pay attention, Mario, because this is mui importante.

All you need to be concerned about is doing...your...job. You need to be concerned about
returning illegal aliens to their own side of the border, comprende? By returning them to their own country you are helping them transform themselves from being illegal aliens in the United States into lawfull citizens in Mexico where Mexican officials can interview them till the cows come home. This is not a difficult concept, Mario. Please, give it some thought.

Minuteman members were not so sanguine about the arrangement, however, saying that reporting their location to Mexican officials nullifies their effectiveness along the border and could endanger their lives.

"Now we know why it seemed like Mexican officials knew where we were all the time," said Chris Simcox, founder of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps. "It's unbelievable that our own government agency is sending intelligence to another country. They are sending intelligence to a nation where corruption runs rampant, and that could be getting into the hands of criminal cartels.

"They just basically endangered the lives of American people."

Chris, I admire what you and your organization are doing. We are under attack. We are being invaded. This is a war.

But I fear you and an overwhelming majority of our fellow citizens are more than a bit naieve regarding our country's government. It is not unbelievable that U.S. officials are providing critical information to Mexican authorities. On the contrary, anything the government can do to deter or nullify the efforts the minutemen is to be expected.

Decades ago, the U.S. government began to be infiltrated by people dedicated to destroying this country, destroying it in every way it can be destroyed. Over the years, they have been able to exert their influence at all levels of government and in key areas of our society -- how our children are educated, the number and value of the dollars we earn, who our next door neighbors are, what we see and don't see in the newspapers, on television, at the movies.

You cite rampant corruption and criminal cartels in Mexico. And yet you fail to mention rampant corruption in our own country and the biggest criminal cartel of all -- the U.S. government. Chris, it's sometimes painful for people to say negative things about their own country, but if they're true, they should be said and heard by others.

There are some countries which care little or nothing for the rights of its citizens -- look the wrong way, use the wrong word, admire the wrong person, voice the wrong idea -- and you go to jail. You sound shocked that the government would blatantly endanger the lives of its citizens. It cares absolutely nothing for us and stands ready to betray us at the drop of a hat.

Chris, the people administering the U.S. government will do or allow anything that facilitates the destruction of this country. If we're in danger, so what! Oh they care for these Mexicans because they're serving a useful purpose -- they're serving to financially and culturally impoverish us, to divide us and disolve the unity which once was our strength.

These Mexicans may not know it now, but when their usefulness is gone they'll be of no more value to the government than the sombrero on their head or the enchelada in their back pocket.

To sum it up, we're losing this war. We're losing it because most of us have failed to identify the true enemy. It's not poor Mexican peasants who are crossing the border in search of a green card. The true enemy is the people who are allowing and encouraging it to happen.

U.S. - Mexico Border = WAR ZONE

Wednesday, 3. May 2006, 21:00:20

, , ,

Andy Ramirez is chairman of Friends of the Border Patrol, a non-profit organization. With his many contacts in the Border Patrol, Mr. Ramirez breaks important stories that have been neglected or covered up by politicians and the media. In an interview with New American magazine he describes the perilous situation along the U.S.-Mexico border. The following information is derived from a transcript of that interview.

Over the past 10 years, the Border Patrol has reported more than 235 incursions by Mexican military and police units into the U.S., including incidents where U.S. civilians, Border Patrol agents, and other law enforcement officers came under fire from the uniformed Mexicans.

What does the Bush administration do? It covers it up and takes Mexico's side in these cases, accepting the Mexican government's ludicrous claims that these are aberrations or innocent mistakes or that they are "rogue" operations — and that the Mexican government is "investigating" the incidents.

In January, members of Congress were demanding to know what was being done about these continuing incursions. So Michael Chertoff [Homeland Security] tries to defuse the concerns by saying stories about these military and police incursions are "overblown" and nothing to worry about. Only days before Chertoff made that remark, on January 23, another major incident occurred that was caught on video, and millions of Americans have seen it.

Hudspeth County [Texas] sheriff's deputies and Texas state troopers ran into a convoy of Mexican vehicles transporting drugs on the U.S. side of the border. Our law enforcement officers chased them back to the border where they were met by heavily armed Mexican military units in Humvees, with machine guns, who escorted the drug smugglers back into Mexico. Again, our government covers up Mexico's involvement and plays down the incident.

On March 21st, Border Patrol Chief DAVID AGUILAR was interviewed on KFOX-TV out of El Paso. He said "there were no Mexican military units involved" in the January 23 incident in Hudspeth County. So he was openly contradicting what all the deputies and officers on the scene actually saw.

Three days after Aguilar's appearance on KFOX, I was at the Texas Border Sheriff's Coalition meeting when Deputy Border Patrol Chief LUIS BARKER was questioned by Sheriff Arvin West of Hudspeth County. Barker tried to deny that his boss [Aguilar] had said there were no Mexican military involved in the incident.

He tried to tell us that Aguilar had been quoted out of context. Well, that wasn't going to work because we all saw the "context." He couldn't tell us that Aguilar didn't say it because we saw and heard him say it.

It was a gross insult to the law enforcement officers who were involved and who were there on the line looking down the barrels of the Mexican military, because there were no Border Patrol agents there guarding the border!

Aguilar and the White House are responsible for leaving that border vulnerable. Then when the sheriffs do the job that the Border Patrol is supposed to be doing, the administration tries to discredit them and make it sound like they're exaggerating the danger. So, when Barker came up and tried to cover up his boss's statement, the sheriffs were really steamed. They've had it with the steady stream of lies coming out of Washington.

They want to cooperate with the federal agencies, and they sympathize with the Border Patrol agents who are on the line, but they've had it with the political toadies like Aguilar and Barker who are betraying their agents on the line and the local law enforcement agencies that are trying to keep our borders from sliding into total chaos.

People may sometimes think it sounds odd for me, as head of an organization called Friends of the Border Patrol, to be speaking so harshly about the Border Patrol. But my criticism is for the top Border Patrol brass, the political appointees, who are selling out the incredibly heroic and dedicated Border Patrol agents.

It's one thing to lie to the public, which we know is taking place, but I witnessed Barker telling them that the incursion and another recent incident, involving a Mexican customs agent in uniform marking smuggling trails with a GPS tracker, didn't happen though Hudspeth sheriffs made the collar [arrest] themselves.

How do you lie or attempt to distort facts to Congress and fellow law enforcement officers? Someone is ordering them to do so, and that is impeachable.

What Is a "Military Incursion Card" ?

Wednesday, 3. May 2006, 08:48:09

Andy Ramirez is chairman of Friends of the Border Patrol, a non-profit organization. With his many contacts in the Border Patrol, Mr. Ramirez breaks important stories that have been neglected or covered up by politicians and the media. In an interview with New American magazine he describes the perilous situation along the U.S.-Mexico border. The following information is derived from a transcript of that interview.
Military Incursion Card

The violations of our border by Mexican military units have become so common that the Department of Homeland Security produced a set of guidelines, the "Military Incursion Card," for Border Patrol agents to carry.

The card explains that "Mexican military are trained to escape, evade, and counter-ambush if it will effect their escape." But get this, the card actually tells agents to hide from Mexican military that may be operating and to "avoid" all confrontation with them.

It's incredible! The very purpose of the Border Patrol is to officially confront those who come across our borders, to protect U.S. citizens from being confronted by these law-breakers. This is an admission by the government that it is abandoning the borders and the people who live in the border areas. Of course, they have kept this all hushed up.

On March 23rd, I provided sheriffs with a copy of the Military Incursion Card. The sheriffs were floored by the incursion card since it countered previous Border Patrol officials' statements about incursions. For the sheriffs, this was the first acknowledgement by the Border Patrol of military incursions of any kind.

Now, this card is quite an amazing document and it puts the lie to all the administration's talk about wonderful cooperation with Mexico's government, which is contradicted by every Border Patrol line agent I have spoken with.

One thing repeatedly said to me by the sheriffs, some of whom walked out of the meeting with Border Patrol command, was how they just couldn't sit there and be lied to anymore. Members of Congress indicate disgusted listeners often walk out of their meetings and hearings too.

And when I say the sheriffs are completely fed up with the feds, I mean there are some who have actually told me they think its going to come down to open confrontation, where they will feel compelled to arrest Border Patrol and Customs officials who are interfering with their duties to protect their citizens.

They don't want to do this — and it certainly would not be pretty — but that's where this will lead, if we, the American people, do not come to the aid of the Border Patrol, and local law enforcement and force the politicians to give them the resources they need to protect our country.
