THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION/TERRORIST CONNECTION, PART XXXVIII

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 17, 2005 03:34 AM

The New York Times reports:

New intelligence information strongly suggests that Al Qaeda has considered infiltrating the United States through the Mexican border, top government officials told Congress on Wednesday….

Intelligence that “strongly suggests” that Al Qaeda operatives have considered using the Mexican border as an entry point was cited in written testimony by Adm. James M. Loy, the deputy secretary of homeland security. But he wrote that there was “currently no conclusive evidence” that this had succeeded.

In the past, law enforcement officials have said Al Qaeda might try to use the Mexican border, but the testimony on Wednesday seemed to suggest increasing concern. In response to questions from the senators, Admiral Loy described it as a “very serious situation….”

Good thing the White House is on the case. Not.
