Title: 80% OF AIRPORT'S SCREENERS ARE ILLEGAL ALIENS

80% of airport's screeners non-citizens

Congressman asks of statistic, 'What is wrong with this picture?'

Worldnetdaily
By Timothy P. Carney
October 1, 2001

Kenneth Mead, inspector general of the Department of Transportation, testified in Congress last week that 80 percent, or more, of the security screeners at Dulles International Airport in nearby northern Virginia are not U.S. citizens.

The hijacked American Airlines flight that smashed into the Pentagon on September 11 originated at Dulles.

At a Sept. 20 hearing, when asked the citizenship status of the screeners at Dulles, Mead said that "a substantial percentage of them are not U.S. citizens."

"What percent?" asked Rep. Harold Rogers, R-Ky.

"I think it's about 80 percent. It may be somewhat more," said Mead.

"Eighty percent of the people checking for terrorists at Dulles Airport are not American citizens?" asked Rogers in disbelief.

"I believe that's so, sir," said Mead.

"What is wrong with this picture?" commented Rogers.

Federal law requires that such workers be either citizens or legal residents.

Argenbright Security, a subsidiary of the British company Securicor, holds contracts at 46 U.S. airports and provides about 40 percent of all U.S. airport security personnel. Before Sept. 11, according to a report in the Washington Times, the FAA fined Argenbright $1 million and placed the firm on 36 months probation for "failing to conduct background checks on its airport-security employees in Philadelphia."

Argenbright did not return calls from Human Events.

The FBI reportedly found knives hidden between seat cushions on planes grounded on Sept. 11. Those knives, and the weapons actually used by the terrorists who seized the flights that day, could well have been planted by baggage handlers or other airport workers with access to planes.

Since Sept. 14, Mead testified, the government has "arrested 12 non-U.S. citizens who illegally obtained security badges necessary to gain admittance to secure areas at another major U.S. airport."

The Government Accounting Office found in a report issued last week that the yearly turnover for baggage screeners exceeded 100 percent at most large airports. This means that the average baggage screener has very little experience, and that the firms that employ these workers have to hire new ones before they have had much time to check their backgrounds.

The Airport Security Improvement Act of 2000 requires FBI criminal checks for certain employees. This law is already in effect at larger airports but is not scheduled to go fully into effect at smaller airports until the end of 2003. It does not require checks on current employees, only new hires.

Mead testified that it may not be feasible to do good background checks on immigrants who have not been in this country for long. He said the government should consider requiring credit checks and proof of citizenship and employ "an automated profiling system that takes into consideration factors including an individual's place of birth."

"22,000 of the 55,000 airport screeners hired by the government haven't undergone criminal background checks, the chairman of the House Transportation aviation subcommittee said Friday."

She worked briefly for Chertoff as his chief of staff at the Justice Department’s criminal division, and two days after her hearing, she married Chertoff’s chief of staff, John Wood. Her uncle is Air Force General Richard Myers, the outgoing Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

I know what should happen with those extra cosmetics and sundries being thrown and sold:

August 12, 2006

The body-odor calls are the ones Security Officer William Morris dreads most. That's when he has to tell someone to leave the Los Angeles Central Library because they smell.

He doesn't mind the rule: He thinks, if anything, the city isn't strict enough with its homeless. But the library-security veteran also knows how easy it is to humiliate the indigent, and he won't stand for that either. Bathe, and you can come back, he tells them.

"An ounce of respect," he insists, "and they will comply."

Perhaps no one must negotiate the uneasy overlap between skid row and the new Los Angeles more delicately than the security officers who patrol the Central Library in downtown's gleaming financial district.

I believe that the only way that 80% of airport screeners could be non-US citizens is if there was an effort to make it so. Reminds me of the czar of russia, how he used jewish people to be his bureaucrats so that his bureaucrats would not be loyal to the christian peasants. I believe that about 80% of our seaports are managed by foreign companies. And I do not buy the propaganda that american compannies just plain cannot do the job.

the people who rule over us are not loyal to us. they may very well be planning our deaths.

Hi Red. God bless!

"I believe that the only way that 80% of airport screeners could be non- US citizens is if there was an effort to make it so."

In a shift, the federal agency supervising aviation security has decided not to displace thousands of current screeners by requiring them to be high school graduates. After stoking high expectations that the federal takeover of airport security would lead to a new breed of airport security screener, one who was better educated and more qualified to assume a position of increased responsibility, the Department of Transportation has decided not to impose rules that would displace thousands of current screeners. Most significantly, the department will not insist that screeners be high school graduates, a requirement that would have disqualified a quarter of the present work force of 28,000. Along with the decision to expedite the naturalization process for screeners who will lose their jobs if they do not become citizens, the relaxed education requirement suggests that the government hopes to minimize the turnover among the screeners when they become federal employees next November."

I'm sure our great dictator and government officials will keep a great handle on it. Heil Bush!
