A memo signed by Department of Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff implements a controversial program condemned by critics as a precursor to a European Union-style partnership with Mexico and Canada. The document shows the Security and Prosperity Partnership, or SPP, is being directed at the highest level of the Bush administration, says the public interest group Judicial Watch, which obtained it and other documents through a Freedom of Information Act request. The Sept. 22, 2005, memo describes the agencies within the Department of Homeland Security responsible for executing the security agenda of the SPP. Titled "Implementation Memorandum for the (SPP)," the ...

DES MOINES, March 17 — Immigration, an issue that has divided Republicans in Washington, is reverberating across the party’s presidential campaign field, causing particular complications for Senator John McCain of Arizona. The topic came up repeatedly in recent campaign swings through Iowa by Mr. McCain and Senator Sam Brownback of Kansas, another Republican who, like Mr. McCain, supports giving some illegal immigrants a path to citizenship, a position that puts them at odds with many other conservatives. Both candidates faced intensive questioning from voters on the issue, which has become more prominent in the state as immigrants are playing a larger and increasingly visible ...

Utrecht: Ethnic Riots after Dutchman is Killed by Police From the desk of Paul Belien on Wed, 2007-03-14 12:31 Ondiep, a working class neighbourhood in the Dutch town of Utrecht, is in turmoil.

The Ondiep residents have been complaining for months about harassment and intimidation by immigrant youths of Moroccan origin. The Dutch mainstream ...

Presidente Bush Worldnetdaily By Joseph Farah March 19, 2007 Does Bush think he is president of Mexico? Is Bush the president of Mexico? Apparently he believes he is. Last week he made his case to the Mexican people for what he euphemistically calls "comprehensive immigration reform" in the U.S. He pledged to do more for the Mexican people. Huh? Is that what Americans elected Bush to do? More for the Mexican people? What about his own country? What about his own people? And does Bush believe emptying out more than 10 percent of the Mexican population into the U.S. is somehow a service to the country and people of Mexico? Because that's what his open-border policies ...

BOSTON - The Anti-Defamation League of New England, which is primarily known for combating anti-Semitism, plans to put significant focus on the fight against what is says is rising hostility against immigrants. Leaders of the ADL said they are alarmed at the animus toward immigrants that is surfacing as the country debates how to secure its borders. ”We fight against bigotry in all forms,” Andrew Tarsy, regional director of the ADL of New England, told The Boston Globe. ”It has become clear both in the extremist world and even in the mainstream that the conversation about immigrants is laced with bigotry.” The ADL effort will include directly reaching out to ...

A bloody conflict between Hispanic and black gangs is spreading across Los Angeles. Hundreds are dying as whole districts face the threat of ethnic cleansing. Paul Harris reports from the epicentre of America's new urban warfare Sunday March 18, 2007 The Observer Father Greg Boyle keeps a grim count of the young gang members he has buried.

He was doing really well,' Boyle says. But Hurtado made a mistake: he went back to his old neighbourhood in east Los Angeles. While sitting in a park, Hurtado was approached by a ...

March 16, 2007 The Anti-Immigrant Agenda Veers Hard Right Tancredo's Putsch By TOM BARRY Republicans, like most Democrats, would prefer to keep immigration issues out of presidential politics. But restrictionist Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO) has other plans. Having announced in January the creation of a presidential campaign exploratory committee, Tancredo hopes to make immigration policy a major campaign issue of the presidential race. Tancredo, who founded the House Immigration Reform Caucus, says that immigration "is the issue that propels me." It's a multifaceted issue, he notes: "It touches our educational system, our medical system, our national security, our ...

So George W. Bush has come back from his trip to Latin America with a newfound determination to open up the U.S.-Mexican border. Oops, I mean, he wants "comprehensive immigration reform." One big hint about his intentions came clear Tuesday afternoon in M–rida, Mexico, when the American president began his joint remarks alongside Mexican President Felipe Calder–n by telling his counterpart, "Perhaps the biggest single issue concerning your country is the issue of migration." Note that last word. The more precise term to describe Mexicans leaving Mexico is "emigration," but instead Bush chose the politically correct "migration." The ...

MERIDA, Mexico – President Bush, seeking to rebuild ties with Mexico, pledged Wednesday to intensify efforts to overhaul U.S. immigration laws and crack down on illegal drug trafficking. Bush said that he senses there has been a change of attitudes in Congress about updating immigration laws, from skepticism last year to recognition now that changes are in U.S. interests. “I will work with Congress, members of both political parties, to pass immigration law that will enable us to respect the rule of law – and at the same time, respect humanity,” Bush said in a news conference with Mexican President Felipe Calderón. Bush, facing a huge fight within his own ...

Greenspan: Let more skilled immigrants in By Bloomberg News | March 14, 2007 WASHINGTON -- Former Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan said allowing more skilled immigrants to work in the United States would help keep the income gap from widening. Inequality of incomes is the "critical area where capitalist systems are most vulnerable," Greenspan said yesterday in Washington at a conference on maintaining the competitiveness of US capital markets convened by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson. "You cannot have a system that we have unless the people who participate in it believe it is just." Allowing more skilled workers into the country would bring down the ...

What Can We Learn from the Mexicans? In his essay "America Vs Mexico: Clashing Civilizations", Frosty Woodbridge [sic], a columnist with a generally good head on his shoulders, puts forward ten points which he claims demonstrates that "everything about Mexico degrades everything about America." While I am sympathetic with Frosty's view that Mexicans do not make good Americans, and certainly not in the numbers which are now washing across the border like wastewater from a gigantic broken sewer line, I think he is seriously mistaken in the flaws he assigns to our Little Brown Neighbors. The following is list of Frosty's ten points, numbered here for convenient ...
Illegal Alien 'Colonias' Shantytowns Spreading Diseases, Death

Hello Jeff -- Frosty Wooldridge was the first to write about the horrors of 'colonias' years ago. I did locate one other article published in May of 2005 that described these despicable shanty towns set up by illegals living in disease and squalor. Why aren't local governments doing something? ANYTHING? I am sure these shanty 'colonias' are totally illegal in terms of zoning laws and should be torn down as a matter of public health immediately. Maybe public health laws only pertain to US citizens who can be cited, fined and even whisked away without explanation at a moment's notice by the Public Health authority?

MIAMI (Reuters) - While hundreds of U.S. law enforcement agents intercepted imaginary Cuban migrants during a massive training exercise in south Florida, two boatloads of actual Cubans sneaked ashore on Miami Beach on Thursday. Boaters dropped off 21 Cuban migrants at a popular nudist beach and left 19 others on another beach a few hours later, the Border Patrol said. Both vessels escaped. "It's our belief that they were the result of organized smuggling," Border Patrol spokesman Steve McDonald said. The Cubans arrived on day two of a training exercise to test "Operation Vigilant Sentry," the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's plan to halt a possible mass ...

Questioning suspects' immigration status has been taboo for L.A. police. But the results of jail screenings revive calls to relax that policy. A spot check by federal agents has identified 59 street gang members in Southern California jails who are illegal immigrants subject to deportation, sparking a debate about the role of border enforcement in the region's battle against violent gangs. The initial identification of deportable gang members came during a first-of-its-kind screening of a portion of jail inmates last month. The review will continue, and officials expect during the first year to identify 700 to 800 gang members who are illegal immigrants, according to Jim Hayes, ...

Latinos land 2 in 3 U.S. construction jobs WASHINGTON, March 7 (UPI) -- Latinos make up 13.6 percent of the U.S. employment population, but accounted for 36.7 percent of the 2006 U.S. employment growth, a study showed Wednesday. Most of the jobs Hispanic workers landed were in the construction industry, the Pew Hispanic Center said. In fact, two out of every three new U.S. constriction jobs went to Hispanic workers, the center said. Hispanic employment increased by almost 1 million from 2005 to 2006, with foreign-born Latinos who arrived since 2000 responsible for about 24 percent of the total U.S. employment increase. Undocumented immigrants accounted for about two-thirds of the ...

Anyone understand why Mexicans fail miserably at creating a successful civilization? Ever wonder why millions of them invade the United States in search of a better life? Have you noticed that once they arrive, they create the same kind of 'society' in the United States? Unconsciously, they create the same conditions they left behind. You can take the boy out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of the boy. For example, in Denver in December, illegal alien Navi dragged his girlfriend to death behind his car. Illegal alien Cruz shot his girlfriend dead in the back because she wouldn't reconcile with him. Illegal alien Ruizz ran over and killed Justin Goodman, but ...

by Mark Thornton DIGG THIS If you watch Lou Dobbs’s show you would think that illegal immigration is the biggest problem facing America today – worse than government inflation and the Fed, standing armies, the military-industrial complex and Operation Iraqi Freedom, and government spying and suppression of our rights all combined. Immigration, illegal or otherwise, is not the problem per se. We are, after all, a nation of immigrants, and mostly of the poverty-stricken sort. Dobbs is the son of a failed Texas propane salesman, and was himself a former welfare worker and ambulance-chasing news reporter so it is a little surprising that he would not have more sympathy for these ...

The first sign of trouble for Cudahy City Council candidate Tony Mendoza was a pair of thong panties mailed to his wife, with a note telling her to watch her husband’s back. Then came the phone calls — and the death threats. A political novice in a tiny city of Mexican immigrants that hasn’t had an election since 1999, Mendoza had expected dirty tricks. But to his dismay, the caller, who spoke poor English and called every day for three days, said Mendoza would be killed if he did not leave Cudahy, a 1.2-square-mile city 10 miles southeast of downtown Los Angeles. After the third call, Mendoza pulled out of the March 6 race. “I have my family to think about,” he ...
