Get over it, people. This is not just about Mexican nationals entering the U.S. Illegally to create a life and a decent living for their families. It's about human trafficking, the drug trade, and most importantly, the clear and present danger of terrorism.

A Line in the Sand:
Confronting the Threat at the Southwest Border

PREPARED BY THE MAJORITY STAFF OF THE
HOUSE COMMITTEE ON HOMELAND SECURITY
SUBCOMMITTEE ON INVESTIGATIONS
MICHAEL T. McCAUL, Chairman

Here are a few quotes from this report:

"U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement investigations have revealed that aliens were smuggled from the Middle East to staging areas in Central and South America, before being smuggled illegally into the United States.

Members of Hezbollah have already entered the United States across the Southwest border.

U.S. military and intelligence officials believe that Venezuela is emerging as a potential hub of terrorism in the Western Hemisphere. The Venezuelan government is issuing identity documents that could subsequently be used to obtain a U.S. visa and enter the country."

This is the good part:

"Since September 11, 2001 to the present hundreds of illegal aliens from special interest countries (such as Iran, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Pakistan, Cuba, Brazil, Ecuador, China, Russia, Yemen, Albania, Yugoslavia and Afghanistan) were apprehended within the South Texas region alone."

Sheriff Sigifredo Gonzalez, of Zapata County, Texas, had this to say, among other things, in a written statement to Congress:

"If smugglers can bring in tons of marijuana and cocaine at one time and can smuggle 20 to 30 persons at one time, one can just imagine how easy it would be to bring in 2 to 3 terrorists or their weapons of mass destruction across the river and not be detected. Chances of apprehension are very slim."

Can anyone say they're surprised?
