A U.S. Senator, as well as a number of brave U.S. law enforcement
officials,
have already gone on record revealing that Mexican drug cartels now
effectively control a number of U.S city governments. See these reports,
for
example:

and

cities

So why be surprised that Mexican drug cartels are now actively
conspiring
with OTHER foreign terrorists to literally LAUNCH ATTACKS ON *STATESIDE*
U.S.
MILITARY BASES?

Terrorists target Army base - in Arizona
November 26, 2007
By Sara A. Carter
Fort Huachuca, the nation's largest intelligence-training center,
changed
security measures in May after being warned that Islamist terrorists, with
the
aid of Mexican drug cartels, were planning an attack on the facility.
Fort officials changed security measures after sources warned that
possibly 60
Afghan and Iraqi terrorists were to be smuggled into the U.S. through
underground tunnels with high-powered weapons to attack the Arizona Army
base,
according to multiple confidential law enforcement documents obtained by
The
Washington Times.
"A portion of the operatives were in the United States, with the remainder
not
yet in the United States," according to one of the documents, an FBI
advisory
that was distributed to the Defense Intelligence Agency, the CIA, Customs
and
Border Protection and the Justice Department, among several other law
enforcement agencies throughout the nation. "The Afghanis and Iraqis
shaved
their beards so as not to appear to be Middle Easterners."
According to the FBI advisory, each Middle Easterner paid Mexican drug
lords
$20,000 "or the equivalent in weapons" for the cartel's assistance in
smuggling them and their weapons through tunnels along the border into the
U.S. The weapons would be sent through tunnels that supposedly ended in
Arizona and New Mexico, but the Islamist terrorists would be smuggled
through
Laredo, Texas, and reclaim the weapons later.
A number of the Afghans and Iraqis are already in a safe house in Texas,
the
FBI advisory said.
Fort Huachuca, which lies about 20 miles from the Mexican border, has
members
of all four service branches training in intelligence and secret
operations.
About 12,000 persons work at the fort and many have their families on
base.
Lt. Col. Matthew Garner, spokesman for Fort Huachuca, said details about
the
current phase of the investigation or security changes on the post "will
not
be disclosed."
"We are always taking precautions to ensure that soldiers, family members
and
civilians that work and live on Fort Huachuca are safe," Col. Garner said.
"With this specific threat, we did change some aspects of our security
that we
did have in place."
According to the FBI report, some of the weapons associated with the plot
have
been smuggled through a tunnel from Mexico to the U.S.
The FBI report is based on Drug Enforcement Administration sources,
including
Mexican nationals with access to "sub-sources" in the drug cartels. The
report's assessment is that the DEA's Mexican contacts have proven
reliable in
the past but the "sub-source" is of uncertain reliability.
According to the source who spoke with DEA intelligence agents, the
weapons
included two Milan anti-tank missiles, Soviet-made surface-to-air
missiles,
grenade launchers, long guns and handguns.
"FBI Comment: The surface-to-air missiles may in fact be RPGs," the
advisory
stated, adding that the weapons stash in Mexico could include two or three
more Milan missiles.
The Milan, a French-German portable anti-tank weapon, was developed in the
1970s and widely sold to militaries around the world, including Saddam
Hussein's Iraq. Insurgents in Iraq reportedly have used a Milan missile in
an
attack on a British tank. Iraqi guerrillas also have shot down U.S.
helicopters using RPGs, or rocket-propelled grenades.
FBI spokesman Paul Bresson would not elaborate on the current
investigation
regarding the threat, but said that many times the initial reports are
based
on "raw, uncorroborated information that has not been completely vetted."
He
added that this report shows the extent to which all law enforcement and
intelligence agencies cooperate in terror investigations.
"If nothing else, it provides a good look at the inner working of the
law-enforcement and intelligence community and how they work together on a
daily basis to share and deal with threat information," Mr. Bresson said.
"It
also demonstrates the cross-pollination that frequently exists between
criminal and terrorist groups."
The connections between criminal enterprises, such as powerful drug
cartels,
and terrorist organizations have become a serious concern for intelligence
agencies monitoring the U.S.-Mexico border.
"Based upon the information provided by the DEA handling agent, the DEA
has
classified the source as credible," stated a Department of Homeland
Security
document, regarding the possibility of an attack on Fort Huachuca. "The
identity of the sub-source has been established; however, none of the
information provided by the sub-source in the past has been corroborated."
The FBI advisory stated the "sub-source" for the information "is a member
of
the Zetas," the military arm of one of Mexico's most dangerous
drug-trafficking organizations, the Gulf Cartel. The Gulf Cartel controls
the
movement of narcotics from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, into the U.S. along the
Laredo corridor.
However, the sub-source "for this information is of unknown reliability,"
the
FBI advisory stated.
According to the DEA, the sub-source identified Mexico's Sinaloa cartel as
the
drug lords who would assist the terrorists in their plot.
This led the DEA to caution the FBI that its information may be a Gulf
Cartel
plant to bring the U.S. military in against its main rival. The Sinaloa
and
Gulf cartels have fought bloody battles along the border for control of
shipping routes into the U.S.
"It doesn't mean that there isn't truth to some of what this source
delivered
to U.S. agents," said one law-enforcement intelligence agent, on the
condition
of anonymity. "The cartels have no loyalty to any nation or person. It
isn't
surprising that for the right price they would assist terrorists,
knowingly or
unknowingly."

"If the representatives of the people betray their constituents,
there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that
original right of self-defense which is paramount to all

tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system,
without resource; except in their courage and
despair ...
"The natural strength of the people in a large community, in
proportion to the artificial strength of the government, is greater
than in a small, and of course more competent to a struggle
with the attempts of the government to establish a tyranny ...
the people, without exaggeration, may be said to be entirely
the masters of their own fate."

"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an
irate, tireless minority keen on setting brushfires of
freedom in the minds of men."
-- Samuel Adams
"Unfortunately, the majority of illegal aliens who are here
are engaged in criminal activity. Identity theft, use of
fraudulent social security numbers and green cards, tax
evasion, driving without licenses represent some of the
crimes that are engaged in by the majority of illegal aliens
on a daily basis merely to maintain and hide their illegal
status. In addition, violent crime and drug distribution and
possession is also prevalent among illegal aliens. Over 25%
of today's federal prison population are illegal aliens. In some
areas of the country, 12% of felonies, 25% of burglaries and
34% of thefts are committed by illegal aliens."
