How can it be cheap if it costs us the most precious thing we possess -- our genetic future? ACCORDING TO a recent news report, tighter controls at the Mexican border (Huh?) have caused a shortage of strawberry pickers in Oregon. This has caused some growers to whine that they need more slaves, ah, illegal aliens, er, immigrants, or the whole friggin' world is going to collapse as the strawberries rot in the fields. It's a catastrophe of Biblical proportions. Good God! We have to open the borders and let in more illegal aliens or America is going to collapse! The story sounds phony -- probably planted by an open borders Bush operative -- because there doesn't appear to be any real ...

Minuteman rally brings out intense passions by Bill Hess Saturday, July 2, 2005 2:17 PM MDT Herald/Review PHOENIX - If anything could symbolize the tensions about border issues in Arizona, it was a line of police officers separating a man carrying the Mexican national banner from those who held high American flags on the capitol grounds. On Friday, organizers and supporters of the Minuteman program held a rally, loudly touting their success in April when they brought volunteers to Cochise County, declaring the movement is growing throughout the nation and challenging politicians to either get aboard the fast moving train of people wanting the borders secured or face defeat in next ...

TIJUANA, Mexico (AP) - The men flocked to the cafe under the sign with the cedar tree, symbol of their Mideast home. Here, in this alien border land, it was the beacon that led to an Arab ``brother'' who would help them complete their journey from Lebanon into America. They would come, sometimes dozens a month over a three-year period, to find Salim Boughader Mucharrafille - the cafe owner who drove a Mercedes and catered to some of Tijuana's more affluent denizens, including workers at the U.S. consulate only a short stroll away. His American customers were unaware that the savvy boss of La Libanesa cafe ran a less reputable business on the side. Until his arrest in December 2002, ...

State weighs grazing lease renewal opposed by border activists Paul Davenport Associated Press Writer Jun. 30, 2005 01:02 PM The state Land Department is considering potential liability to the state as it decides whether to grant a grazing lease renewal requested by a Cochise County rancher who has gained notoriety for detaining illegal immigrants on land near the U.S.-Mexico border. A human-rights advocacy group, the Border Action Network, on Thursday protested the department's possible renewal of a grazing lease for nearly 14,000 acres of state trust land controlled by rancher Roger Barnett's REB Enterprises LLC. "Our argument is the state Land Department should revoke the lease ...

Minuteman organizing to 'protect' borders far from Mexico line Travis Reed The Associated Press Jun. 30, 2005 02:38 PM SALT LAKE CITY - Wally McCormick never really thought that at age 68 he'd become a political activist. But there he was last month, outside a suburban bank with about 100 people at a protest he helped organize for a cause he says he's prepared to die for. This particular action targeted banks that allow illegal immigrants to use identification cards issued by the Mexican government to open up accounts. Others are planned for businesses and even the state for allegedly hiring undocumented workers. For McCormick, a Utah Minuteman organizer, it's always about illegal ...

Blair 'waited until after election' to reveal scale of illegal immigration

Tony Blair was accused of misleading the public over the level of illegal immigration after the first official estimate suggested that up to 570,000 unauthorised migrants are living in Britain. The Home Office study, based on a formula developed in the United States, put the number of illegal migrants at between 310,000 and 570,000. It produced a "central estimate" of 430,000 people living illegally in Britain – amounting to 0.7 per cent of the population. Before the election, Mr Blair denied there was any estimate of the number of people living illegally in Britain. The Prime Minister was asked about the issue 20 times on the BBC's Newsnight and insisted the information ...

Some counties gain more foreigners than U.S.-born Southwest experiencing demographic shift Jon Kamman The Arizona Republic May. 26, 2003 12:00 AM Two migration patterns, closely linked, are sweeping across population centers of U.S. states along the Mexican border. Many counties are absorbing more migrants from other nations than from within the United States. And in an even more dramatic shift, some of the counties are seeing more U.S. residents move out than U.S. residents move in. Together, the trends are escalating the concentration of foreigners in Southwestern counties that, until the 1990s, depended on newcomers from other parts of the United States for the bulk of their growth. ...

Tensions rise in Sodo as day laborers crowd sidewalks By VANESSA HO SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER The man pulled his truck into the parking lot of Home Depot and shouted, "I need four strong dudes!" A multitude of strong dudes soon swarmed him, along with a few hungry and eager dudes, allowing him to pick a crew for $10 an hour per person. Then he sped off to a job unloading drywall. In the next few hours, contractors, landscapers and a man in a silver Jaguar pulled up near the giant, orange-branded, home-improvement store south of downtown Seattle -- but not to shop. At least, not for supplies. They wanted muscle, and they wanted it cheap. "Everybody knows this is ...

Group rips Bush gag on border surveys Billy House Republic Washington Bureau Jun. 29, 2005 12:00 AM WASHINGTON - A White House-approved gag order was imposed on U.S. Border Patrol agents regarding information that President Bush's "temporary guest worker" proposal inspired more illegal border crossings from Mexico, a group charged Tuesday. The non-profit conservative Judicial Watch said it had acquired and analyzed government documents showing that in the weeks after Bush announced his proposal on Jan. 7, 2004, as many as 45 percent of those caught arriving illegally from Mexico told agents they believed Bush was offering an amnesty program. But Bush had made no such offer, ...

State's rural growth taxing water supplies Unregulated building raises question: Will there be enough to go around? Shaun McKinnon The Arizona Republic Jun. 26, 2005 12:00 AM Unchecked development threat-ens to overwhelm rural Arizona's limited water resources, leaving entire communities vulnerable to shortages and rivers at risk of running dry. Rural Arizona's population, which doubled to more than 1 million people in the past 25 years, is projected to grow by an additional 500,000 in the next 25 years. The result is a soaring thirst for a finite supply of groundwater. Nine years of drought have exposed how finite that supply is in many areas. But the threat to rural residents arises ...

People who live on Hamilton's east side are concerned that racial tensions over the alleged rape of a nine-year-old girl will escalate this weekend. To try to calm the chaos, some residents organized a "march for unity" for Friday evening. The march will go by the now-burned house where the girl was allegedly raped on Sunday. Following the rape report, the house was vandalized and then set on fire. On Thursday night, a hispanic man was stabbed on Central Avenue in Hamilton, but it's unclear if it was retaliation for the Sunday crime. The suspect in the rape is a hispanic man who's believed to be an illegal immigrant. Several aliases along with his were released by police ...

As part of nation-building efforts in Iraq, U.S. forces have been tapped to perform duties that go beyond their regular military training. But establishing order at the country's out-of-control borders proved too difficult a task for soldiers, so the Defense Department is looking to other uniformed experts for a little help. "We recognized early on that we just don't have those types of talents and skills," said Lt. Col. Fred Wellman, spokesman for the Multi-National Security Transition Command in Baghdad. For nearly a year, U.S. Border Patrol and Customs agents, both now working under U.S. Customs and Border Protection, have been quietly dispatched to help establish Iraq's ...

Craig Nordal, leader of the neophyte North Coast Republican Club, said the club voted Monday to indefinitely postpone Wednesday's political fund-raising talk by Jim Gilchrist, leader of the Minuteman Project.

Owners of thousands of acres of South Texas ranchland say immigrants have damaged their land and made the town unsafe. They say the answer may be the Minutemen, who in April monitored the Arizona-Mexico border and reported suspected illegal crossings to authorities. Minuteman leaders have said they will begin to patrol the Texas-Mexico border in October. But their expected ...
