DID YOU KNOW THAT ARMED TROOPS AND POLICE FROM MEXICO HAVE BEEN VIOLATING OUR BORDER FOR YEARS, IN SOME CASES ESCORTING DRUG DEALERS INTO THE U.S. SO THEY WON'T BE CAUGHT BY U.S. BORDER GUARDS?

It's true.

But have you ever seen a headline that read: MEXICAN SOLDIERS INVADE UNITED STATES?

Neither have I. When it comes to securing our borders, the left-wing press -- and our elected officials in Washington -- sees no evil, hears no evil, and speaks no evil.

Recently, however, Judicial Watch obtained a government report that documents not one, not two, but HUNDREDS OF INCURSIONS BY ARMED MEXICAN SOLDIERS AND MEXICAN POLICE.

Here are some excerpts from the report, describing specific incidents:

"As the boat proceeded to go down river towards the scene, the [U.S. Border Patrol] Agent on board advised via radio that several Mexican soldiers were pointing their rifles in his direction. The Agent decided for his safety and the safety of the crew to turn back, but advised that the soldiers were still aiming at them."

Invaders aimed their guns AT AMERICAN BORDER PATROL AGENTS ON AMERICAN SOIL -- knowing that U.S. agents aren't allowed to pursue them. At other times, they actually fired on Americans.

"[Troopers] attempted to apprehend three vehicles believed to be smuggling contraband on I-10 . As the vehicles approached the border, [troopers] stated that a Mexican Military Humvee armed with a .50 caliber weapon and several soldiers were seen assisting smugglers return to Mexico. Officers then noticed several armed subjects dressed in fatigue type clothing unload the contraband into the Humvee."

Unfortunately, Mexico seems to be run by corrupt politicians, a rogue army, and dirty cops. It's a cauldron of poverty, lawlessness, and corruption.

"This boat, which appeared to be a Mexican Military boat, was providing security and escort for the two others that were later found to be transporting 2,716.53 pounds of Marijuana."

Where is the outrage? No one in charge seems to care that dope dealers are now bringing their own armies with them -- and our National Guardsmen on the border AREN'T EVEN ALLOWED TO HAVE WEAPONS!!

You stopped our elected officials from making amnesty for 12-20 million illegal aliens the law of the land, but the job is only half done. Now it's time to force them -- kicking and screaming if necessary -- to secure our border!

Troops and police from foreign nations SHOULD NOT be breaching our borders, shooting at American Border Patrol agents, and providing armed escorts for dope dealers. Demand that the Senate and House fully fund the Secure Fence Act that they slyly and silently gutted in December.

Hundreds Of Armed Incursions...

You read that right!

Tom Fitton of Judicial Watch said of the report:

"These documents not only show the dangerous and chaotic situation at the Mexican border, but also the complicity of some Mexican government agents in violating U.S. law."

Are you ready for this? In its report, the government states that in the decade between 1996 and September 30, 2006, the U.S. GOVERNMENT CONFIRMED 253 INCURSIONS INTO THE UNITED STATES BY MEXICAN GOVERNMENT PERSONNEL.

Homeland Security has documented shots fired on both sides of the border, unmarked helicopters invading U.S. airspace, drug smuggling, and dangerous confrontations between U.S. Border Patrol agents and armed members of the Mexican military.

But wait a minute! What did our government DO about these illegal invasions?

Did we threaten to go to the United Nations, as President Vicente Fox did when he heard we were building a fence to stop illegal aliens from sneaking into our country?

Did we call the Mexican government on the carpet?

Apparently our government did nothing -- except maybe hide the incident reports in a cob-web-covered file cabinet and let them accumulate dust.

Don't American citizens -- and those who are in our country legally for that matter -- deserve at least as much protection as the Mexican government affords its citizens?

We know what happens to illegal aliens who attempt to cross Mexico's southern border. They are shot dead or hauled off in irons and sent back to Guatemala, El Salvador, and points south.

What Happened To The Fence?

Remember that fence? The one that was mandated and funded when Congress passed the Secure Fence Act (SFA) in 2006 and President George W. Bush signed it into law.

You had to send hundreds-of-thousands of Blast Faxes before Congress would act, but they finally got the message: Build that fence on the border or else!

Now? Forget the fence! It's gone! Last month -- when they thought you weren't looking -- the U.S. Senate passed a $555 billion omnibus spending bill that contained a tiny amendment revoking the mandate that the fence be built as originally specified.

And guess who slyly slipped in the amendment to gut SFA: Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison of Texas -- a state that has been ravaged and savaged by illegal immigration.

Her amendment reads: "Nothing in this paragraph shall require the secretary of homeland security to install fencing, physical barriers, roads, lighting, cameras and sensors in a particular location along an international border of the United States, if the secretary determines that the use or placement of such resources is not the most appropriate means to achieve and maintain operational control over the international border at such location."

Those who had fought to stop illegal immigration were stunned and angry.

Chris Simcox, with the Minutemen, said: "Congress truly pulled the rug out from under us while we were doing our last-minute holiday shopping, deceiving the American people and only showing goodwill to the 12 million lawbreakers living among us."

Congressman Duncan Hunter said: "If Congress is to reverse its border stance after just one year, what message does that send to illegal immigrants and drug smugglers who are watching to see how serious we are about protecting America's borders ."

The Fence As Specified Will Do The Job

Congressman Hunter was the driving force behind the building of the border fence in San Diego.

That fence consists of two layers with a Border Patrol access road separating the layers.

Congressman Hunter says the fence has reduced the smuggling of drugs and illegal aliens into San Diego BY A PHENOMENAL 90 PERCENT!

"If you get over my fence," he says, "we sign you up for the Olympics immediately."

In fact, he wrote the Secure Fence Act, which originally required a double layer border fence, just like the one in San Diego. The Hutchison amendment killed that requirement too.

TWO-FACED POLITICIANS -- REPUBLICANS AS WELL AS DEMOCRATS -- HAD NO INTENTION OF BUILDING A FENCE WHEN THEY PASSED THE ACT.

They voted for it while winking at one another, certain the time would come when you and I wouldn't notice or even care when they hauled the Secure Fence out to the Washington city dump.

That day has come.

But we can make them build it... if we care... if we ACT RIGHT NOW!

Three Alarming Conclusions...

The report on the invasions and the actions of the U.S. Senate reveal several alarming things about our government.

First -- while instituting precautionary measures at airports and seaports -- the federal government is negligent in its policing of our southern border, the most dangerous strip of earth on the North American continent.

Illegal aliens pour across daily, and Washington politicians smirk, shrug their shoulders, and say: "Who cares, as long as the special interests that fund our campaigns get cheap labor."

You have to ask yourself; how many of these illegal aliens are from Iran or Syria or Saudi Arabia? All three are breeding grounds for terrorists yearning to smuggle a weapon of mass destruction across the border.

Only a few days ago, two Mexican border cities erupted in violence as drug dealers and Mexican troops and federal agents engaged in fierce firefights on the streets of Rio Bravo and Reynosa. Five died in a hail of bullets. "We're very concerned that the Mexican military controls its violence," said Hidalgo County Judge J.D. Salinas.

Maybe next year the Mexican drug cartels will be shooting one another on the streets of Ft. Worth or Oklahoma City or Minneapolis.

Second, our elected officials seem oblivious to the growing strain that 12-20 million illegal aliens place on our social institutions.

Illegal aliens have glutted our schools, our welfare programs, our courts, our prisons, and our hospitals -- costing U.S. taxpayers BILLIONS and BILLIONS of their hard-earned dollars!

Some hospitals have already closed their doors because they could no longer afford to serve the hordes of illegal aliens who came to them, demanding free health care. (It's against federal law for hospitals to turn away anyone.)

Hillary Clinton and other liberals in Congress claim they are alarmed at the rising cost of health care and the inability of middle-class Americans to afford quality health care...

I've got a solution... instead of advocating socialism and reducing the quality of health care across the board... let's secure our borders...

In some states, the English-speaking children of U.S. citizens have been assigned to schools where all the classes are taught in Spanish.

English is rapidly becoming the "second" language in towns and cities across the Southwest? In fact, some businesses in Texas are even accepting pesos instead of dollars.

Illegal aliens currently comprise 29 percent of all inmates in federal prison.

Reneging on the Secure Fence Act -- actually the second or third reneging -- shows that Congress is not just out of touch but contemptuous of the American people.

Let's demand Congress bring back the double layer border fence -- all of it! And let's act now... our elected leaders need to make this fence their FIRST order of business!
