Paving the way to Aztlán with propaganda, politics, racism

By Linda Bentley, Reporter, Sonoran News

    AZTLÁN – What was and where was Aztlán? The Arizona Republic fielded a similar question under their Science Q & A. 

    Dan Kincaid responded: “Aztlán was the legendary original home of the Aztec Indians … Aztlán, which means literally ‘Place of the Herons’ in their Náhuatl language …” Kincaid goes on to say “… the Aztecs believed their Ancestors migrated in stages from Aztlán, reaching central Mexico about A.D. 1200. An Aztec subgroup, the Tenochas founded their capital, Tenochtitlán, in 1325 on an island in Lake Texcoco after seeing an eagle perched on a cactus and devouring a rattlesnake.”

    The New York University Press states: “Aztlán was the mythical place of origin in some Aztec traditions, a lake with an island in the middle that was replicated when the wandering Mexica settled at Tenochtitlan. The word Aztec is derived from this mythical place.” Another University in Buffalo, New York claims, “Aztlán is the Aztec name for their ancestral place of origin located, according to an old legend, somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean,” citing that it corresponds geographically to Atlantis, as described in Plato’s works, “Critias” and “Timaeus.”  
Teachings of MEChA “… the brutal ‘gringo’ invasion of our territories.” However, in a Hispanic Studies textbook, “The Mexican American Heritage” by East Los Angeles high school teacher Carlos Jimenez, Aztlán is depicted on page 84 in a redrawn map of Mexico and the United States, showing Mexico with one third more territory.

    On page 107, Jimenez states, “Latinos are now realizing that the powers to control Aztlán may once again be in their hands.” The textbook teaches highschool students that Mexico is supposed to regain the states of Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington and that they rightly belong to the “mythical” homeland of Aztlán.
    The book contains no references or footnotes and teaches separatism, victimization and nationalism, while promoting an open border policy.

    The myth of Aztlán is heavily promoted through MEChA club meetings at college campuses across the nation, rapidly gaining acceptance at high school campuses as well.

    MEChA stands for Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlán or Chicano Student Movement of Aztlán. Their logo depicts an eagle holding a stick of dynamite.

    The preamble of MEChA’s National Constitution states: “Chicano and Chicana students of Aztlán must take upon themselves the responsibilities to promote Chicanismo within the community, politicizing our Raza with an emphasis on indigenous consciousness to continue the struggle for selfdetermination of the Chicano people for the purpose of liberating Aztlán.” The University of Arizona MEChA Chapter’s website states: “The following documents are essential to the philosophy of MEChA. Every Mechista should be familiar with them. Listed along with their National Constitution is ‘El Plan de Santa Barbara’ and El Plan Espiritual de Aztlán, which opens with, ‘In the spirit of a new people that is conscious not only of its proud historical heritage but also of the brutal “gringo” invasion of our territories, we, the Chicano inhabitants and civilizers of the northern land of Aztlán from whence came our forefathers, reclaiming the land of their birth and consecrating the determination of our people of the sun, declare that the call of our blood power, our responsibility, and our inevitable destiny.

    ‘We are free and sovereign to determine those tasks which are justly called for by our house, our land, the sweat of our brows, and by our hearts.

    Aztlán belongs to those who plant the seeds, water the fields, and gather the crops and not to the foreign Europeans.

    We do not recognize capricious frontiers on the bronze continents.’ 
Preaching prejudice, racism, hatred and anti-Semitism La Voz de Aztlán is a bilingual online news service published from Los Angeles (Whittier), “Alta California” that claims to be “focused on news events that are relevant to La Raza in Aztlán, Mexico and beyond.” They say that they also publish their own “unique analysis of world events and contemporary issues through editorials, commentary and political cartoons.” Publisher Hector Carreon and Editor-in-Chief Ernesto Cienfuegos definitely have a unique spin on events and issues.

    It is commonly known as racism and anti-Semitism.

    One of Cienfuegos’ editorials is titled: “The ‘Kosher Nostra Scam’ on the American Consumer.” Cienfuegos said of their research, “What we found certainly was ‘news’ to us and it both shocked and angered us.” After becoming educated in the various kosher symbols on food packaging, Cienfuegos made the statement, “I learned that major food companies throughout America actually pay a Jewish Tax amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars per year in order to receive protection.

    The scam is to coerce the companies to pay up or suffer consequences of a Jewish boycott.” He concludes with, “… I demand my money back for all I had to pay over the years for the hidden and illegal Jewish Tax. Are there any bright attorneys out there that could bring a class action suit against the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations on behalf of the citizens of Aztlán and other non-Jewish people?” Carreon wrote an editorial called: “Shattered Identities: ‘Malinchismo’ as a Dissociative Identity Disorder Caused by Ritual Racial Abuse.” He says, “To understand how these personality types may come about, we can refer to recent history involving the Jews during their traumatic ‘Nazi Holocaust Period!’ The German Jews had their own ‘Vendidos’ and ‘House Niggers’ called ‘Judenrat’ and ‘Kapos.’” Carreon says that what they all have in common is that they have all identified with the dominant oppressors. According to Carreon, the beginnings of the micro-traumas and ritual racial abuse start in kindergarten when little Juanita is told by her “gringa” teacher not to speak Spanish. At lunch she becomes the victim of ridicule by her “gringo” peers when she has a burrito for lunch instead of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

    He claims Juanita grows up with “dismal self-esteem” and “self-hate” that could sentence her to life of gangbanging and drugs. But then, he says Juanita can alternatively take on different personality direction, caused by the micro-traumas and ritual racial abuse, one that causes her to dissociate her identity as Juanita. She might develop such a shame that she changes her name to Jane, bleaches her hair blond and starts to take on characteristics of “Anglos.” Carreon says this is “merely a nuisance but can become dangerous to our community when ‘Anglos’ start using these personality types against us.” He then states, “Like the ‘Judenrat’ in Nazi Germany, these ‘Malinchistas’ will be utilized against us in political campaigns like the present one against Bilingual Education.” La Voz creates anti-Semitic correlations from ordinary news in article upon article.

    Their agenda promotes racism against all white people, especially Jews, and portrays all Hispanics as victims.

“… designed to create cultural havoc” Tucson Unified School District (TUSD) Superintendent George F. Garcia’s promotion of outcome-based education and special treatment toward Hispanic children did not sit well with a group of TUSD parents.

    They formed Arizona Parents for Traditional Education and petitioned Garcia and the governing board to return “back to the basics” education to TUSD, citing, “We do not want to replicate California’s eight year mass experimentation and failure with outcomebased education.” 

    One parent, John Stevenson, wrote an open letter to Garcia, responding to a frontpage article in the Tucson Citizen where Garcia called for special classes and special help for Hispanic students.

    Stevenson said, “Under the constitution of the United States it is incumbent on all government agencies to treat all citizens equally. It is unconstitutional for any government agency in the US to single out any racial group for special favors, nor should they single out any other racial group to suffer as a result.

    This action is blatant racial bigotry.” Stevenson continued, “In addition to racial bigotry, Mr.

    Garcia, you foster cultural terrorism. When you allow special consideration based on race, it builds lifetime resentment in the others. You, in effect, teach the others to hate those who you make privileged.

    “When you teach a selected race that it requires your special help, you also teach them that they are either genetically or culturally inadequate.

    You try to modify that by teaching them that the only reason they need this help is because the white community abuses them.” Stevenson said Garcia’s actions could be “construed as fraudulent and perhaps even traitorous” as his acceptance of the public’s money, earmarked “to prepare children for their adult place in society,” is, instead, being used by Garcia to bring about ideological change, using children to promote his vision of a socialist society.

    “… one must suspect that this is a deliberate process.

    One designed to create cultural havoc,” Stevenson wrote.

    He ended his letter “Please, sir, I beg you, resign from your job immediately and save the community from further damage.” That was back in August 1996. Garcia didn’t resign. It wasn’t until four years later that Garcia left.

    Still posted as one of the goals of the TUSD Hispanic Studies curriculum: “Establish and nurture educational and community partnerships by taking an active role in advocating for Hispanic concerns and issues.”

Once a patriotic organization that emphasized the importance of citizenship, the League of United Latin American Citizens now supports the theory that Hispanics have been victimized by white people, and are staunch proponents of illegal immigration.

Political influencing

State Representative John A. Loredo, Dem. District 22, who was first elected in 1996, then re-elected in 1998 and 2000, attended Phoenix College, where he first became involved in politics.

    He was elected president of MEChA and he was the first President-Founding Member of LULAC (League of United Latin American Citizens) Young Adult Council.

    He worked with Cesar Chavez organizing marches, rallies and boycotts. His first political campaign was the “NO on 106 (English Only)” committee.

    He served on an Ad Hoc Committee on Border Issues and on the Farmworker Affordable Housing Study Committee. He served on the Executive Board for the National Hispanic Caucus of State Legislators and as a board member of Friendly House, one of the four nonprofit organizations that was chosen to run the Palomino Day Worker Center in Phoenix.

    Another organization that runs the day laborer center is Tonatierra. Tonatierra Community Development Institute proclaims its location as Nelhuayotl, Aztlán, although they use a Phoenix PO Box for their mail.

Day workers are “forced to stand on street corners and suffer the scorn of a society which utilizes them to clean their houses.”

Tonatierra’s coordinator, Salvador Reza, was born in Chihuahua, Mexico. His family moved to Ysleta, Texas when his father, a farm worker, was granted a work permit under the bracero program.

    Reza sees himself as a victim of racism, stemming back to his days in kindergarten.

    After graduating from the University of California, San Diego, Reza began working for immigrant advocacy groups.

    He says he came to Phoenix because he believes it is the center of Aztlán, the original land of the Aztecs before they migrated south to Mexico. Of all the stories about where Aztlán might have been, Reza is the only one who believes its center is in Phoenix.

    Reza, one of the major lobbyists for the Palomino Day Worker Center in Phoenix, was quoted in an interview as saying that jornaleros, or day workers, are “forced to stand on street corners and suffer the scorn of a society which utilizes them to clean their houses.” One of Tonatierra’s initiatives was the Macehualli Project, to organize the hundreds of day laborers in Phoenix.

    Reza believes the Macehualli Union de Jornaleros (Day Laborers Union) will achieve justice and dignity through the establishment of day labor centers.

    Tonatierra and Reza’s goals go far beyond the day laborer centers he wishes to create throughout the city. He is pushing for increased Latino political representation and expanding the Xinachtil Program (Xinachtil means “seed” in the Aztec language) in the public school system to teach “traditions, culture, art and science of indigenous people.” Immigrant advocacy groups no longer promote legal immigration, citizenship, learning English or any other assimilation into this country. Hispanicrights groups talk of reoccupation and repatriation of the southwestern United States, the land of “indigenous people.” 

Demographic warfare … exporting Mexico’s surplus poverty In Tucson, Pima County Legal Defender Isabel Garcia, cochair of Derechos Humanos (Human Rights), promotes open borders and illegal immigration, proclaiming: “No human is illegal.” She denounces the same laws she is hired to uphold, and does so on taxpayer’s money.

    The Pima County Board of Supervisors claim Garcia can do whatever she likes during her own time.

    Garcia, along with co-chair Jose Lerma, have recently been selected to serve on a 100-member council created by Mexico’s government to represent Mexicans living in the United States. Their main duty is to advise the Mexican government on the needs of the approximately 9-10 million Mexican natives residing in this country … about half legally and half illegally.

    The concept of reoccupation is not new. The term was used in an official study done by the Mexican Government’s National Council on Population (Conapo).

    Conapo’s study predicts that during Mexican President Vicente Fox’s six year term, ending in 2006, that two million Mexicans will enter the United States at the approximate rate of 380,000 per year.

    The study also indicates that the Mexican government has embraced the concept of “demographic warfare,” a reconquering of the southwestern United States through unchecked illegal immigration and by exporting its “surplus poverty” to regain control.

    Mexican novelist Elena Poniatowska was quoted in Mexico’s EWE news service as having said, “Mexico is at the moment recovering territories it lost in the past to the United States thanks to emigration (sic). The common people – the poor, the dirty, the lice ridden, the cockroaches are advancing on the United States, a country that needs to speak Spanish because it has 33.5 million Hispanics who are imposing their culture.” Mexican columnist Carlos Loret de Mola explained Mexico’s “demographic warfare” strategy in Mexico’s newspaper, the Excelsior, over 20 years ago.

   Loret’s article, “The Great Invasion: Mexico Recovers on its Own,” described the strategy: “A peaceful mass of people … carries out slowly and patiently an unstoppable invasion, the most important in human history. You cannot give me a similar example of such a large migration wave by an ant-like multitude, stubborn, unarmed, and carried on in the face of the most powerful and best-armed nation on earth … [Neither] barbed-wire fences, nor aggressive border guards, nor campaigns, nor laws, nor police raids against the undocumented, have stopped this movement of the masses that is unprecedented in any part of the world.” Loret describes a migrant invasion that continues and that will return the southwestern states to the jurisdiction of Mexico, “… without the firing of a single shot, nor requiring the least diplomatic action, by means of a steady, spontaneous, and uninterrupted occupation.” The effects of what Loret said then where already apparent in Los Angeles, which he called “the second largest Mexican city in the world.” MEChA promotes an ultimate ideology to liberate Aztlán. Four of the main Hispanic pressure groups, LULAC, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF), the National Council of La Raza (La Raza) and MEChA, are united in their main objectives. They promote an agenda of racial and ethnic consciousness.

    They all want more immigration of their own people into the United States. They want to stop deportation of illegal aliens and want to provide American citizen’s rights, including the right to vote, to non-citizens. They promote Spanish as the official language in areas dominated by Hispanics. They believe that Americans must assimilate to Hispanic culture and language.

    They believe this is already their land and have no need to become citizens, learn English or assimilate in any way. By proclaiming the southwestern United States, Aztlán, they believe all those of Hispanic decent are already citizens.

    It appears that anyone who disagrees with that agenda is considered a racist. Author Michelle Malkin, who is of Filipino decent, disagrees … she too has been branded a racist.

Mexican, white, non-white depends where benefits are

In the 1950s, the LULAC recognized English as the official language of the United States, emphasized the importance of citizenship, supported immigration control and mass deportation of illegal aliens.

    They even began all of their meetings reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

Salvador Reza of Tonatierra, who considers himself a victim of racism from events that occurred in kindergarten, became an advocate for illegal immigrants after graduating from college.

    Today, the LULAC supports the theory Hispanics are victimized by white people.
    “Mexicans” were counted separately, for the first time, during the 1930 Census. Because Texas was segregated, Mexicans felt they were losing their status as non-white and might face the same conditions as blacks.

    The LULAC succeeded a few years later in having Mexicans recognized as “whites” again, and treated that way for segregation purposes.

    Then, 40 years later, after affirmative action programs become introduced for blacks, the LULAC and La Raza lobbied successfully to be recognized as “non-whites” so that Mexicans would be recognized for racial preference purposes.

    They ebbed and flowed with identity, insisting they were white when there were advantages to being white. When benefits associated with being non-white surfaced, it was time to change color again.

    In a letter to the editor (published in the March 12 edition of Sonoran News), LULAC President Samuel Esquivel wrote, “You are what I would characterize as a ‘true racist.'” Esquivel also stated, “I hear the complaining about illegal immigrants being the cause of all these bad things, but I don’t hear nobody complaining about their lawns not being cut, their houses not being cleaned, dishes not being washed in restaurants, cars not being washed, houses not being built, etc. The bottom line is, if it were not for these so called illegal immigrants, who people like you take advantage of, you would not be living in the lap of luxury, as you are accustomed to living.” Esquivel claims that any suggestion about upholding laws of this nation is just a means of hiding racist behavior.

    Another letter, printed in the same edition, came from John Garrido, Chairman of the National Hispanic Coalition, in the process of forming. He states, “Long ago salsa replaced ketchup as America’s number one condiment. As ketchup went by the wayside, those that attempt to diminish the values Hispanic Americans hold sacred will some day also go by the wayside.” Cutbacks in illegal alien benefits “a disgrace to American values” The Ford Foundation alone has poured millions of dollars in funding into organizations like La Raza and MALDEF.

    And while MALDEF’s Mario Obledo stated, “California is going to be a Hispanic state.

    Anyone who doesn’t like it should leave,” President Clinton awarded Obledo the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 1998.

    Immigrant rights organizations continue to lobby for special treatment toward Hispanics – bilingual education, affirmative action, mass immigration and more hate crime laws.

    La Raza claims immigration control violates civil rights and that cutbacks in welfare and other benefits for illegal aliens is “a disgrace to American values.” The United States Government apparently believes, somehow, that “regularizing” illegal aliens from Mexico will get one party or the other elected, depending on who grants the “regularizing.” They are most likely mistaken.

    These groups claim to hate Americans and all that is American. However, they keep coming … coming to reclaim Aztlán.

    And, government officials seem to be paving their way with benefits, amnesty and “rights,” at citizens’ expense.

Elvira Arellano’s road trip ends in apprehension

‘… fix this broken law and uphold the principals of human dignity’

By Linda Bentley, Reporter, Sonoran News

    LOS ANGELES – After seeking sanctuary in the Aldalberto United Methodist Church in Chicago, where she has lived for the past year to avoid deportation, Elvira Arellano decided to hold a press conference last Thursday, announcing she would be going to Washington, D.C. on Sept. 12 to lobby Congress to reform our country’s immigration laws.

    After living in the United States illegally for a decade, Arellano still does not speak English and requires an interpreter. However, this time she read, with great difficulty, a speech prepared for her in English.

    Peppered with repeated references to her “American citizen son,” Arellano read, “If this government would separate me from my son, let them do it in front of the men and women who have the responsibility to fix this broken law and uphold the principles of human dignity.” According to the Merriam- Webster Dictionary, dignity is defined as “the quality or state of being worthy, honored, or esteemed.” Arellano, 32, is hardly the portrait of dignity.

    Shortly after entering the country illegally in 1997 using someone else’s identification, Arellano was deported.

    However, she returned almost immediately, working at various jobs in Washington State, later moving to Chicago, using the names Gloria Trevino and Donna Miranda-Baretto and a social security number issued in Wisconsin to Margaret Benez, born May 6, 1920 and who died Sept. 15, 1995.

    That was how Arellano was able to gain access to the secure area of O’Hare International Airport where she worked cleaning airplane cabins.

    That was also what got her arrested and deported after immigration agents did a sweep at O’Hare in 2001.

    In addition to entering the country illegally, engaging in identity fraud, Arellano gave birth to an illegitimate son, Saul, now eight, who would not be an American citizen, had Arellano not reentered the country illegally after being deported.

    With a glowing eight-page pre-sentencing report, stating deportation would be punishment enough, Arellano was charged with a single misdemeanor for fraudulently presenting a social security card that was not issued by the Social Security Administration and was sentenced to three years probation, which prohibited Arellano from remaining in or reentering the United States after being deported.

    Arellano lost the appeal of her deportation order, but instead of surrendering to be deported, Arellano decided to hole up in Rev. Walter “Slim” Coleman’s church.

    During Thursday’s press conference, Arellano, reading from her prepared statement, said, “Families should not be separated. I understand fear because I fear being torn from the arms of my son.” Arellano made the decision to become a fugitive.

    Apparently Arellano had other plans she did not announce during the press conference.

    After the press conference, Michelle Dallacroce, founder of Mothers Against Illegal Aliens, learned Arellano was headed to Los Angeles, accompanied by Coleman and others, where they were to join Coleman’s wife, Emma Lozano, an open borders activist for Latin American illegal aliens and one of Arellano’s closest friends.

    On Friday, Aug. 18, Dallacroce called the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office in Los Angeles and spoke to Agent Bison, advising him of Arellano’s status as a fugitive and that she was on her way to Los Angeles.

    While Arellano’s every move has been covered by the Chicago Tribune, including sending a reporter to Arellano’s home village of San Miguel Cunahuango, Michoacán, Mexico, earlier this year, Dallacroce said no one from the Chicago ICE office contacted ICE in Los Angeles to advise them of fugitive alien Arellano’s road trip.

    The Tribune’s Online edition released breaking news on Saturday announcing Arellano’s arrival at Our Lady Queen of Angels Church in Los Angeles and said she was expected to speak during an illegal alien rights march later that afternoon.

    Dallacroce provided Bison with all the details available at the time.

    On Sunday afternoon, immediately after Arellano and her entourage got into a van to leave Our Lady Queen of Angels Church to head north to San Jose, where Arellano had another speaking engagement scheduled, an unmarked vehicle pulled up to block them.

    As the driver, Roberto Lopez, looked out the window to see why they were being blocked, they were soon surrounded by several more unmarked vehicles.

    Agents got out and yelled for Arellano to get out of the van. Arellano asked to spend a moment with her son, and then surrendered without incident.

    As of Monday, no charges have been brought against Coleman, Lozano or Lopez for aiding, harboring or transporting a fugitive alien.

    Saul will remain in the United States with Lozano, which Arellano reportedly expressed was her wish if she was deported.

    Again, it is Arellano who made the decision to be separated from her son.

    Dallacroce said she planned to go to Washington, D.C. next month and make a citizens’ arrest had Arellano not been apprehended.

    Over the past two years, Dallacroce has been lobbying to get Congress to clarify the “under the jurisdiction” clause of the 14th Amendment, which she says is being purposely misinterpreted in order to grant citizenship to the children of lawbreaking foreign invaders.

    She believes these “jackpot” babies, raised by foreigners, speaking foreign languages, with no allegiance to this country, will eventually negate the votes of American children.

    Dallacroce says Arellano’s sense of entitlement, based solely upon having given birth to an illegitimate son, after committing identity fraud and reentering the country illegally after being deported, emphasizes just how preposterous it is to grant citizenship to the children of foreign criminals, as she implores Congress to clarify the misinterpretation of the 14th Amendment for the sake of her own and all American children.

    That’s the broken law Dallacroce says needs fixing.

Roberts interviews San Diego Mayor Sanders about Sanctuary Cities

RICK TALKS TO MAYOR JERRY SANDERS ABOUT SANCTUARY CITIES

By Rick Roberts 760 KFMB AM Radio Host 

DISCLAIMER: The different points of views on the Rick Roberts are not supported nor do they reflect the views and beliefs of The Bosun Locker or any entity affiliated with the Bos’un

This morning we spoke to Mayor Jerry Sanders. The topic was San Diego as a sanctuary city. For as much as I like Mayor Sanders personally, I’ll admit… I was disappointed.

Mayor Sanders was NOT informed on federal regulation 287 (g).

Mayor Sanders waffled on the migrant camp policy in 6.18. When I asked him if migrant camps were full of illegal aliens, he at first said yes… But later said no.

He admitted that they cannot treat all persons the same for traffic violations, (You’ve gotta love that illegal alien get out of jail free card!!)

To back his statements on air, the Mayor Will not declare in a proclamation that we are NOT a sanctuary city.

The Mayor states that the City of San Diego is not a sanctuary city, nor does it have sanctuary city policies. When I asked for his own definition of a sanctuary city, Sanders said that his definition is when the city officially declares itself to be one, and they tell their police officers not to interact with illegal immigrants. (That’s peculiar… Because minus the ‘official’ part, that IS what a “don’t ask, don’t tell” sanctuary city is, and that DOES sound a lot like OUR city’s policy!)

But the Mayor cannot decipher any difference between the City of San Diego’s policies and the policies of ‘official’ sanctuary cities.

Local government CAN do something about immigration… for the good, whether it be in Escondido standing against illegal alien renters, Nashville has enforcing the 287 (g) program, or police in Newark, NJ teaming up with feds… But local government can also use their power for the worst. Mayor Inzunza made National City an official sanctuary city just last year…

The disappointment for the City of San Diego is that as a result of the Mayor and City Council ignoring it and/or doing nothing about the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy, we’re nothing more than a large version of National City.

Making a city an ‘official’ sanctuary city for illegal aliens is the same as LEAVING it an ‘unofficial’ sanctuary.

YOU CAN LISTEN TO MY FULL INTERVIEW WITH MAYOR SANDERS BY CLICKING HERE.

________________________________________________________

And…

For those of you who AREN’T with local government, the following is what our elected officials should know about:

What is the 287 (g) Program?
• The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigration Responsibility Act (IIAIRA) of September 30, 1996, amended the Immigration and Nationality Act by adding 287 (g), a program that authorizes the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to enter into a written Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) with state and local law enforcement to authorize qualified personnel to perform certain acts of an Immigration Officer.

What is the program designed to do?
• According to representatives from the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the federal agency within DHS that is charged with implementation of the program, 287 (g) is designed to enable state and local law enforcement personnel, in the course of their normal duties, to question and detain individuals for potential removal from the United States if these individuals are identified as criminal illegal aliens – individuals who pose a significant threat to national security and public safety.

Doesn’t the City’s Police Department already have that authority?
• Police may currently arrest and detain criminal illegal aliens but must rely on ICE agents to process the paperwork necessary to start the deportation process. 287 (g) empowers participating state and local agencies to process these individuals directly and to ensure that they are entered into the ICE system for potential deportation.

What is the program not designed to do?
• The 287 (g) program is not designed for rounding up illegal aliens in random street operations. It is not designed to impact issues such as excessive occupancy and day worker activities. In outlining the program, ICE representatives have repeatedly emphasized that it is designed to identify the “worst of the worst” for potential deportation; any effort to expand the program to arrest all illegal aliens would rapidly overwhelm, and ultimately shut down, the system. What is the process by which a local agency enters into the program? A letter of interest is submitted by a local or state agency’s top law enforcement and administrative officials to ICE. If approved, ICE and the local or state agency enter into a Memorandum of Agreement that authorizes qualified personnel to participate in the program.

________________________________________________________

Mayor Sanders also faxed the Congressional Research Service on August 20th, demanding that San Diego be taken off the report’s list.

The following is what Mayor Jerry Sanders wrote to the director of the Congressional Research Service, Daniel Mulhollan:

“Dear Director Mulhollan:

It has come to my attention that the latest Congressional Research Service annual report has concluded that the City of San Diego has “sanctuary policies” or “non-cooperation policies” in place with respect to enforcing immigration laws. I vehemently disagree with your conclusion that any San Diego city policy, including the San Diego Police Department policy concerning undocumented persons, is either a “sanctuary” or “non-cooperation” policy and would respectfully request that you remove the City of San Diego from your list of such cities.

The San Diego Police Department’s policy concerning “Adult Undocumented Persons” is found in SDPD policy 6.18. The policy is very clear that the SDPD’s primary responsibility is to enforce all state and local laws. However, if during the investigation of a state or local crime, an arrested subject is determined to be illegally in the United States, Department Policy 6.18 specifically states that a hold for Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “shall be placed on the prisoner.” Even if no arrest occurs, but an undocumented person is detained due to a “reasonable suspicion” that criminal activity exists, officers are still authorized to notify ICE or the Border Patrol. It is unclear to me what criteria the CRS used to make a determination that the City of San Diego has “sanctuary policies.”

As you are aware, immigration violations are governed almost exclusively by federal law, specifically the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA). Currently, the INA provides limited avenues for state and local enforcement of its provisions. As your report notes, local governments have traditionally only been permitted to directly enforce criminal provisions. You further state in your report that “the enforcement of the civil provisions, which includes apprehension and removal of deportable aliens, as strictly been viewed as a federal responsibility, with states playing an incidental role.” To suggest that San Diego is a “sanctuary city” simply because the City of San Diego DOES NOT HAVE THE RESOURCES TO PERFORM THE ENFORCEMENT FUNCTION OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT with respect to immigration violations is irresponsible and insulting. In contrast to what many other cities have done, San Diego has never held itself out as a sanctuary city. The City of San Diego respect and actively enforces all applicable federal, state, and local laws. Your characterization of San Diego as a city with “sanctuary policies” is flawed and inaccurate.

Therefore, I formally request that your remove San Diego from any list that designates us as either a “sanctuary city” or as a city with “sanctuary policies” in place. Also, it would be helpful if you could please provide us with a copy of any analysis that went into designating San Diego as a city with “sanctuary policies” for our review.

Thank you for your prompt attention in this matter.

Sincerely,

Jerry Sanders
Mayor
City of San Diego”

Will Hezhollah strike the US of A?

Back in 2006, I asked the question; Will Hezbollah strike in the US??

According to a Reuters report dated July 18th 2006, Iran’s Hezbollah party, which has claimed links to Hezbollah in Lebanese, promised that it stood ready to attack Israeli and U.S. interests worldwide.  At about the same time, also reported by Reuters, the FBI was busy trying to ferret out possible Hezbollah agents in the United States amid concerns that rising U.S.-Iranian tensions at the time might trigger attacks on American soil.

In 2006, while the American public was busy going to malls, movies, and other wholesome activities, our  law enforcement officials were concerned the Lebanon-based Hezbollah, which has so far focused on fund-raising and other support activities inside the United States, might turn to violence in solidarity with Iran.

Much to my supprise, a name resurfaced 2006 in our news media but did not get much press attention: Imad Fayez Mugniyah (one of the leaders of Hezbollah security organization).  The lame stream press seems to have a very short memory and did not connect the name with the man. 

Mugniyah has been active on the terrorism circuit for over 20 years.

According to Laura Mansfield, ( http://www.lauramansfield.com/j/default.asp ) there appears to be striking similarities between Mugniyah’s brand of terrorism for the past 20 years and the practices of the present-day terrorists in Iraq. 

Mugniyah allegedly has been tied to kidnappings and bombings throughout the world over the past two decades.  Please note that Mugniyah was also linked to terrorism in South America in 1992 and 1994. 

▪ April 18, 1983 bombing of the United States embassy in Beirut, which killed 63 people including 17 Americans

▪ October 23, 1983 simultaneous truck bombings against the French paratroopers and US Marine killing 58 French soldiers and 241 Marines.

▪ September 20, 1984, he attacked the US embassy annex building.

▪ Linked to the numerous kidnappings of Westerners in Beirut through the 1980s – some were killed, some by beheading, and a few were eventually released

▪ March 17, 1992 bombings of the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires Argentina, which killed 29

▪ July 1994 bombing of the AMIA cultural building in in Buenos Aires Argentina, killing 86 people

▪ Orchestrated the 2000 abductions of three Israeli soldiers in the southern part of Lebanon

▪ Abduction of Israeli Colonel Elchanan Tenenbaum. Source: Laura Mansfield

In 2002, Jeffrey Goldberg, reporter-at-large for The New Yorker magazine did an interesting 2- part article, “IN THE PARTY OF GOD” that included Hezbollah operations in South America and the United States:

• Part 1 – Are terrorists in Lebanon preparing for a larger war? http://www.jeffreygoldberg.net/artic…in_the_par.php
• Part 2 – Hezbollah sets up operations in South America and the United States
  http://www.jeffreygoldberg.net/artic…_the_par_1.php

Here is an excerpt from Part 2 of Goldberg’s article:

“Roughly two hundred thousand people live in the Ciudad del Este region, including a substantial minority of Arab Muslims; in the Triple Frontier zone, there may be as many as thirty thousand. According to intelligence officials in the region and in Washington, this Muslim community has in its midst a hard core of terrorists, many of them associated with Hezbollah, the Lebanese Shiite group backed by the Iranian government; some with Hamas, the Palestinian fundamentalist group; and some with Al Qaeda. It is, over all, a community under the influence of extreme Islamic beliefs; intelligence officials told me that some of the Triple Frontier Arabs held celebrations on September 11th of last year and also on the anniversary this year. These officials said that Hezbollah runs weekend training camps on farms cut out of the rain forest of the Triple Frontier. In at least one of these camps, in the remote jungle terrain near Foz do Iguaçu, young adults get weapons training and children are indoctrinated in Hezbollah ideology—a mixture of anti-American and anti-Jewish views inspired by Ayatollah Khomeini.

In the Triple Frontier, Hezbollah raises money from legitimate businesses but, more frequently, from illicit activities, ranging from drug smuggling to the pirating of compact disks. Unlike the other radical Islamic groups in the Triple Frontier, Hezbollah, it is said, has the capability to commit acts of terror.”

Part 2 of the series takes place in South America, not, the Middle East. It seems to me that the Atlantic Ocean offers little protection from the spread of terrorism as we witnessed first hand on September 11, 2001, in New York City.

We have been very lucky for the past six years.  However, the powder keg of the middle east and the hate of the Islamic Jihadi may have broader ramifications. Does Hezbollah have the ability to strike here?  Will it striker here?

Be ever vigilant.

Court Says: Illegals not necessarily a crime

Illegal Presence in US Not Necessarily A Crime, Court Says

(CNSNews.com) – If you can get past the border guards and into the United States, you’re no longer violating the law, according to a Kansas Court of Appeals decision.

A three-judge panel threw out an illegal immigrant’s jail sentence, based on an apparent contradiction in U.S. law: While it is illegal to enter the country without the proper documents and permissions, it is not necessarily illegal to be in the country…

CARE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT THE NORTH AMERICAN UNION? 
By Rick Roberts,KFMB 760AM San Diego 
June 1st, 2007

We had Dr. Jerome Corsi of WorldNetDaily and StopSPP.com on our show this morning to discuss some VERY vital issues, including the NASCO super highway.

Here is what we discussed:

Southern border blurs for global trade

Superhighway a ‘crazy conspiracy theory’?

Bush’s detention facilities

Dr. Corsi touches on countless key issues that lamestream media journalists wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot pole.

You can listen to Rick Roberts’ interview by clicking here.

Sadly, these issues are not conspiracy theories. They are what we face as a nation if we don’t fight.

Dr. Jerome Corsi received a Ph.D. from Harvard University in Political Science in 1972. He has written many books including “Unfit for Command: Swift Boat Veterans Speak Out Against John Kerry” (along with John O’Neill), “Black Gold Stranglehold: The Myth of Scarcity and the Politics of Oil” (along with Craig R. Smith), “Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians,” “Minutemen: The Battle to Secure America’s Borders,” and most recently, “The Late Great U.S.A.: The Coming Merger With Canada and Mexico.” He is also an expert on political violence and terrorism. In 1981, he received a Top Secret clearance from the Agency for International Development, where he assisted in providing anti-terrorism/hostage survival training to embassy personnel.

AMERICA’S DISTRACTIONS, RECALL POSSIBILITIES, & THE NATION’S DISINTEGRATION
Courtesy of Rick Roberts, KFMB AM San Diego 
May 23rd, 2007

MANY OF YOU have been emailing and calling your elected officials: And it IS making a difference.

They’re starting to gripe… They’re beginning to teeter…

THEY ORIGINALLY WANTED TO PASS THE BILL BEFORE MEMORIAL DAY!!

And to all of you bitching and moaning about “Oh, well Rick, that’s all you’ve been talking about for the past few days.”

I broadcast for five hours a day five days a week- I DO talk about other news and issues of that day, but there’s no way in hell I’m going to skip this topic of the amnesty bill when our country is bordering on going to Hell in a hand basket.

What else do you want to talk about???

How about what the rest of America is talking about: Spoiled B-Rate Hollywood starlets, American Idol, Dancing with the Stars…

Does any of this sound interesting to you??

Our nation is disintegrating before our very eyes and your average adult- especially those under the age of 30- is always quick to tell you what Britney’s doing with her hair… who divorced who… Or even their American Idol voting record…

And yet they probably couldn’t tell you the first thing about the very people that RUN OUR COUNTRY.

Most of these people aren’t even registered to vote!!

IT’S DISGUSTING.

Because of this aloofness we had an onslaught of liberal and so-called “conservative” (insert sarcasm) politicians that snuck behind our backs in an attempt to reward and give special benefits to law breakers.

Not that it was the first time this kind of thing happened…

I’m NOT saying that the American people should stop doing fun and frivolous things in their free time.

I AM saying that the American people has to realize that celebrities, reality shows and other silly things should NOT become YOUR reality.

At least take the time out in your day, when the rare opportunity comes up, to do your civil duties as an American. Just vote… And know WHO you’re voting for.

We as a nation MUST become proactive.

We’ve got border patrol agents in jail for doing their job.

We’ve got a globalist as a President wanting our country to morph into a Canada-Mexico-conglomerate.

We’re being lied to left and right by our representatives.

So why are we concerned about are what your average cocaine-sniffing, plastic surgery-loving Hollywood starlet is up to?

But I digress…

In the meantime, here is some food for thought:

Want to know how to recall an elected official?

(Only) eighteen states permit the recall of state officials…

Alaska
Arizona
California
Colorado
Georgia
Idaho
Kansas
Louisiana
Michigan
Minnesota
Montana
Nevada
New Jersey
North Dakota
Oregon
Rhode Island
Washington
Washington, D.C.
Wisconsin

(Recall actions in both the House and the Senate are justified in cases of perceived disloyalty to the United States, or the conviction of a criminal statutory offense which involved abuse of one’s official position.)

* In these states, the recall ballot consists of a list of candidates for the office held by the person against whom the recall petition was filed. The name of the officer against whom the recall was filed may appear on the ballot for reelection. * In these states, the recall ballot consists of two parts. The first asks whether the officer against whom the recall petition was filed should be recalled. The second part consists of a list of candidates who have qualified for the election. The name of the officer against whom the recall petition was filed may not appear on this list.

* The individual charged must receive written notification of the specific charges outlined in the motion to initiate recall against said individual within one day of the motion and at least seven days prior to the meeting at which the hearing will take place.

* All Senators and officers shall be notified at the same time the individual being recalled is accused.

* The recall process is similar to that for initiatives in that citizen petitions are required. The number of signatures necessary to qualify a recall petition is just higher.

* The governor then appoints a successor who must be a member of the same political party as the officeholder recalled, and must be selected from a list submitted by a committee of the political party of the person recalled.

* The signature requirements are high: 25 percent in nine states; 25 percent for statewide offices and 35 percent for legislators in Washington; one-third in Louisiana; and 40 percent in Kansas. California’s requirements are 12 percent for statewide offices; 20 percent for legislators and appellate judges. Georgia requires 15 percent for statewide offices; 30 percent for all others. Idaho’s requirement is 20 percent for all offices. Montana has the lowest number of required signatures – 10 percent for statewide officials and 15 percent for state district offices such as legislative districts.

Nonimmigrant in the United States: S 1348 Proposal

S 1348, appears to be be an amnesty immigration bill hastily developed behind closed doors, bypassing all normal processes for bill review and passage. This has caught the American public off guard with the goal of pushing it through fast. This  “immigration reform bill” contains the identical set of broken promises to secure the borders and enact penalties for employers who hire illegal aliens that we’ve heard countless times over the past 20 years.

“The bill reneges on promises that amnesty would never again be offered to people who are in this country illegally; it violates commitments that Congress has made to protect the interests of American workers; and it compromises the security of this nation by granting legal status to people who may pose a threat to the nation.

Adding to the betrayal, this surrender of the public interest was negotiated by senators who had personally pledged, as recently as last year, never to agree to any bill that includes amnesty.” — FAIR President Dan Stein.

S. 1348 Provisions

• Immediate legal status and citizen benefits for 12+ million illegal aliens (Z-visas);
• Admission of 400,000 additional “guest workers” plus dependents every year;
• Grants amnesty to those who have broken the law, dramatically increases worker visas, and otherwise imposes impossible administration burdens on a currently dysfunctional system;

What S. 1348 Doesn’t Have

• Tougher penalties and enforcement requirements employer hiring illegal workers;
• Clear and affordable enhanced border security measures;
• What the proposed measures will cost and how they will be implemented and monitored over time;

Read FAIR’s full analysis of the Z visa – a new visa in S. 1348 just for illegal aliens (PDF).

Texas Town says Ningún Gracias to Illegals.

Texas Town Says No Más to ILLEGALS

posted in Immigration |

ILLEGALS are parasites who sponge off this country. They use resources that they are not entitled to and that they do not pay for. Health care is just one item that is overburdened by the ILLEGAL population. Couple this with the burden on schools which are paid for with tax dollars from those working legally and the problems mount. The jackasses in Congress do not make this problem any easier to solve because they vote to allow ILLEGALS to collect Social Security and to receive welfare, more taxpayer money down the drain. I understand that many of these people are hard workers but that does not amount to anything when they are viewed as a whole. They got here by breaking the law and it does not matter whether they are hard workers or not. The executives at Enron were all hard workers but when they broke the law all hell broke loose and people, including the idiots in Congress, wanted their blood. This is because a lot of investors and employees lost a fortune because of those illegal acts.

Well, this country is losing a fortune because of the ILLEGAL acts of the immigrants who broke the law to get here. The fiscal strain is no less significant than it was for those affected by Enron but it goes unnoticed because it is spread out to all the taxpayers. You can bet that if this problem only affected the rich and famous then Congress would do something about it. But hey, they are use to using our money unwisely so it really does not matter to them because in the long run they (especially the Democrats) will gain a new voting base. Our nation is being over run by people who have no right to be here and we need to do something about it. One Texas town has.

Voters in Farmers Branch Texas made it clear that they do not want ILLEGALS living there. They passed a law that would require people renting property to determine that the prospective tenant is here legally or they will be subject to a fine. There are many who applaud this law and some who think it puts the burden of determining legal status on the wrong people. Lawyers representing people who are opposed to this say that the town has taken over something that is explicitly a federal task. The US Code is pretty clear that it is the duty of all law enforcement to report ILLEGALS. Be that as it may, there are many who will fight this new law. I think they should check each person who shows up to testify against it. They might be able to get rid of some more of the vermin.

I have heard the argument that it is the federal government’s responsibility to handle immigration. Those who oppose laws designed to stop this infestation have cited this a number of times. I believe that immigration is a federal responsibility but it is up to everyone to assist. Investigating bank robberies is a federal function but that does not preclude law enforcement from the states helping out. In any event, how about each state pass its own laws that say they will not allow ILLEGALS to be in the state and that they are allowed to check that at any time. Perhaps the states can not deport the ILLEGALS but they can arrest them for being ILLEGAL in that state and put them in jail for it. Perhaps the states could deport them to safe havens like San Francisco.

Regardless of how it plays out, one town in Texas has had enough and has decided to do what the federal government refuses to. This might be thrown out in court but we will never have success in thwarting the hoards of ILLEGALS unless we take a stand and try something new.

WHY BRING MORE CRIME INTO THIS COUNTRY?
Originally posted at KFMB AM Radio San Diego By Rick Roberts
April 10th, 2007

El Presidente Buuuush visited Pima County yesterday to talk about his immigration plans.

He was at the opening of a new border patrol station…

THAT’S DAMN INTERESTING.

It’s odd, I heard no mention of the border patrol agents unfairly prosecuted by “loyal Bushie” Johnny Sutton… No mention of the pardoning of BP agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. But I digress…

The President reiterated his belief that millions of new guest workers are needed to “do jobs Americans aren’t doing.”

Bush is quick to brag about Mexico importing their “talents and culture” into the U.S., but what you do not hear about is one of their highest importations: Crime.

A century ago it was the thing to migrate the legal way, to assimilate, to respect America… Such thing is now long gone, and now we edge closer and closer to imploding and eroding as a nation.

A couple Fridays ago, drunk illegal alien from Mexico, Alfredo Ramos, was speeding down Virginia Beach Boulevard in Virginia when he plowed into the rear of a 1994 Plymouth belonging to Allison Kunhardt, 17.

She was driving with her best friend, Tessa Tranchant, 16. Allison’s car was stopped at a red light.

Both were killed. One of the girls died at the scene. The other girl died shortly after she arrived at the hospital.

Both were wearing seatbelts.

Both were pinned in the wreckage and had to be cut free before paramedics could tend them.

Alfredo Ramos was working at a Mexican restaurant, Mi Casita… (You know, one of those jobs that “Americans won’t do.) He speaks NO English. He had three prior drunk driving convictions, including other crimes such as identity theft. His last DUI was only late last year. He was given a 90 day suspended sentence, fined $250, had his drivers’ license suspended… But court documents revealed that Ramos didn’t actually have a valid driver’s license; had actually paid $200 for a fake one. Because the two girls were killed in the sanctuary city of Virginia Beach, Alfredo Ramos was allowed to walk.

Hmmm… that restaurant that Ramos was working at… Don’t you think that if we actually enforced the law, in that perfect world that both parties are oblivious to, that piece of scum would be in his nation of origin and one of those girls could have been working the position that Alfredo Ramos was… Teenage employment is low, illegal alien employment is high. How dumb are our politicians??

Then we have local child molester, Juan Villalobos, 54…

An illegal alien, previously deported, wormed his way through our borders once more to commit a crime far worse than trespassing and stealing our resources and sovereignty…

He stole the innocence of three girls in their San Carlos home just over a year ago.

All three were relatives.

Villalobos was arrested yesterday evening at the Old Town trolley station.

We already have crime in this country. We don’t need more of it imported from other countries…

We ESPECIALLY don’t need it imported from a third world country.

Thanks.
