Mexico was once known for its tough handling of its southern border
with Belize and Guatemala. Not anymore. At least 52,000 illegal aliens
have managed to cross Mexico and reach the US border in the past few
months. Many of them are kids. Some of them are hardcore criminals. With
Hizballah known to be active in South America and Mexico, who knows who
else may be using this moment to slip into the US?
Our broken visa system remains the easiest way for terrorists to get
here and stay here. But a porous border doesn’t help security. The illegal aliens are bringing diseases. There is one known case of swine flu in San Antonio already, directly linked to the border surge. CBS buries a serious lead at the end of this story.
According to Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-TX): “I’ve talked to border patrol
down in McAllen. They’ve seen TB; they’ve seen chicken pox; they’ve seen
scabies. And according to Border Patrol, 4 or 5 of their agents have
tested positive for those diseases.” What will that do to morale in the Border Patrol?...more
