That Ameria would not utilize this agancy to help with the war on terror is absolutely shocking and I think shows that our government does not care all that much for our safety.
Those of you with short attention spans will probably skip this post and move on to another blog, but if you really care, and are truely worried about the safety of our nation, you will read this.
It will surprise you and if you're like me, it will piss you off!!!
Interpol is one of the worlds oldest, largest, and most famous law enforcement agencies in the world. The only problem is that what most people think Interpol does is fiction. The agents are not allowed to make arrests, carry guns, and rarely leave the office, and until the last few years the agency was not even opened on weekends.
Their real job is behind the scenes collecting and disseminating information to law enforcement agencies all over the world, and until Ron Noble became the first ever American (the first ever non-European infact) to run the global organization, it played almost no role in fighting terrorism.
Mr. Noble has been trying to change all that since he took over as Secretary General 7 years ago, less than a year before 9-11 happened.
When asked if his phone rang off the hook following the 9-11 attacks Noble replied "I only received a phone call from my brother telling me to turn on the TV just in time to see the second plane fly into the building".
When asked why he thought nobody called Interpol Noble replied "because we were irrelevant".
Since Noble took over he has worked hard to change this, and Interpol played a role in 4,500 arrests last year worldwide.
Interpol is the worlds largest clearinghouse for international criminals and maintains the world's largest database of known terrorists, some 11,000 names, it also has the worlds ONLY database on lost or stolen passports and travel documents. There are over 15 million of them and every week some 3,000 people try to use them to enter a country illegally.
Noble says "Every significant international terrorist attack that has occured has been linked in some way with a fraudulent passport"....."so by catching the people with stolen passports you get yourself closer to catching terrorists".
Noble says they have 187 countries telling them what is happening in their countries.
NOW HERE IS THE SHOCKING PART..............
Noble says the US is reluctant to cooperate with international organizations, when it comes to terrorism. The US Dept. of Homeland Security has 250,000 employees and NOT one of them is based at Interpol. When asked why he thinks that is, Noble replied "You know, I ask myself that question. I just feel like they don't get it. They just don't get it".
Reporting or providing data to Interpol is voluntary, and many nations don't want to share sensitive information with the agency because they believe it could end up in the hands of other member countries, like Iran, Libya and Cuba.
But Noble says there of ways of sharing information without undermining the security of that information.
Security isn't the only reason that countries don't cooperate with Interpol. Sometimes they're just embarrassed.
Last year, when 23 people escaped from a prison in Yemen, including the mastermind of the al Qaeda attack on the U.S.S. Cole, Interpol found out about it only by monitoring Arab television.
"Worldwide in the last two years, we've had 43 countries where escapes have occurred. And zero of those countries notified Interpol. That can't happen. That shouldn't happen", Noble says.
Not only is Interpol underutilized, Noble says, it is also hopelessly under-funded. The U.S. contributes $5.5 million to the organization's $50 million budget, a pittance compared to big city police departments.
"NYPD, $3 billion a year. FBI, $6 billion a year. DHS, $42 billion a year.
Interpol is about $50 million," Noble points out. "About the same amount that the Los Angeles Galaxy is paying for David Beckham to play football.
That's what the world is contributing to Interpol to keep the citizens of the world safer that they otherwise would be".
Noble says the US and the world is not doing enough to prevent another 9-11 type attack, and that governments need to get over their differences and start working together.
Noble is so worried that another major attack will happen that he actually broke down into tears during the interview.
"I keep thinking about September 11th and all the other terrorist attacks. I’m seeing the mistakes that are being made every day, and I think one of these days its going to happen again," Noble says. "And I've gotta be able to persuade people before it happens."
He stated that the problem is a billion dollar problem not a million dollar problem and that he simply can not get the US and other countries to understand that.
Because of his frustration, Noble wants to raise $100 million from the private sector.
Noble is not just looking for money, he is looking for a different mindset, an understanding of what is really going on in this world.
He says "I've been doing this now for six and a half years, I get up every day and I think about how can I make the U.S. understand this?' And I just can't. I can't. I can't"...."we know that terrorist activities are being planned, and we know that if we don't respond, people will die".

MEXICO DECLARES WAR ON THE US
A member of the Mexican Government accidently says how he thinks:
Mexico's Foreign secretary Luis Ernesto Derbez Baustista, speaking to a group of Texas_Pan American students, expressed the true agenda of the Mexican government.
He stated that he envisions a day when Mexico and the United States are "integrated" into one hybrid nation.
He also shared his thoughts about the Minutemen Project
(a group of civilians who are working hard to stop the flood of illegal immigrants) saying......
"Because they feel frustrated for whatever reason they are doing this....they are trying to take this war into their own hands".
Did you catch the wording there??
"this war"??
Is there a war with Mexico that we Americans are not even aware of?
The Mexican Foreign Secretary seems to think so!!
and the INVASION of our nation by 25 million illegals would appear to support that.
Since the 1980s, the Mexican government has sought to expand the numbers, wealth, and political power of the Mexican community in the U.S. Southwest, and to integrate that population with Mexico.
"The Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders," said Mexican President Ernesto Zedillo said in the 1990s.
His successor, Vicente Fox, called illegal Mexican immigrants "heroes" and describes himself as president of 123 million Mexicans,
100 million in Mexico and 23 million in the United States.
And his successor, the currrent Mexican President, Filipe Calderon, recently said "Mexico does not stop at it's border, where there are Mexicans, there is Mexico". He is also DEMANDING that the U.S. give full amnesty to every illegal Mexican who is in the United States.
He says that between 5 and 20 of his own relatives have migrated to the US and that he does not know their current immigration statuses or whether they entered legally.
and added "I'd rather not say who they are".

CHINA SELLS WEAPONS TO IRAQ...RECALLS COMING SOON
There seems to be a growing concern regarding the fact that Iraq just made a deal to buy $100 million worth of military equipment and small arms from China.
This weaponry is to be used by the Iraqi national police force, who we all know is absolutely brimming with terrorists.
But I must say I don't think it's such a bad idea myself.
Afterall the quality of products that leaves China is such that the first time one of those muzzie fuckers trys to shoot and American soldier the gun will probably blow up in his face or the barrel might simply just fall right off!
And if that doesn't work, the fuckers will eventually die from the massive amounts of lead that will surely be in the weapons, since they are "made in China".

THEY NEED YOUR FUCKING MONEY
Just incase you didn't know it.....
Mexico's 2nd largest source of revenue (income) is the money they receive from Mexicans living in the US.
So it stands to reason that they would not want that cash cow to be taken away!
So in yet another move to stop the US from protecting itself against this invasion,
Mexico is urging its consulates in the United States to ramp up their defense of illegal aliens.
The move comes at a time when local and state governments are attempting to do the job the federal government has refused to do.
Mexico plans to create an "anti-defamation league" and give its consulates more money to counter those who oppose illegal immigration.
Just another example of the Mexican government's out in the open agenda to override the US citizen's right to maintain sovereignty over our own nation.

A US VET CUTS DOWN THE MEXICAN FLAG
Reno Nevada.....October 2, 2007After hearing rumors that a downtown business (a bar) was flying a Mexican flag above an American flag, a U.S. army veteren went to the bar, and in full view of TV cameras, and the bar's owner, cut down the flags and threw the Mexican flag onto the ground.
The U.S. Vet then turned to the reporters and stated the following, and I quote...
" My name is Jim Broussard and I took this flag down in honor of my country with a knife from the United States army, I'm a veteren and I'm not going to see this done to my country. If they want to fight us then they need to be men, and they need to come and fight us, but I want someone to come and fight me for this flag, they're not going to get it back".
He then turned and walked away with the American flag draped over his shoulder, right past the bar owner who did not say a word to him but went over picked up the Mexican flag and took it inside the bar, refusing to speak on camera to reporters.
The bar owner later gave an off camera statement to reporters saying that he did not know it was illegal, and that he had recently bought new flags to replace his old ones and had hung the Mexican flag on top of the US flag to support the Mexican community, he also stated that he is an American citizen and is happy the incident did not lead to any violence.
It should be noted that the "hispanic community" has just begun a 3 day boycott by members of the Hispanic community in response to recent immigration raids.
The raids targeted 11 McDonalds restaurants in the Reno area and ended in the arrest of 56 illegal immigrants.Certain members of the hispanic community say a boycott is the only way to respond to the "inhumane way" that is being used to deal with the illegal immigration problem. ( boy they don't know "inhumane" do they)
So was this the reason the bar owner hung a Mexican flag above an American flag?
Was he supporting the boycott?
Of course the ACLU put their 2-cents in........
The ACLU of Nevada has released a statement about recent media reports that it is "illegal" to fly foreign flags over the U.S. flag.
The ACLU explains that while there is indeed a federal law regulating the display of the U.S. flag, that law is merely advisory and simply codifies standard government practice in displaying the American flag.
In other words... you don't really have to follow this particular law it is simply suggestions on what one should do!!
Well I looked it up and this is what I found........
4 USC - Sec. 7 - Office of the Law Revision Counsel, U.S. House of Representatives
TITLE 4 - FLAG AND SEAL, SEAT OF GOVERNMENT, AND THE STATES
TITLE 4 - FLAG AND SEAL, SEAT OF GOVERNMENT, AND THE STATES
CHAPTER 1 - THE FLAG
Sec. 7. Position and manner of display
Sec. 7. Position and manner of display
(c) No other flag or pennant should be placed above or, if on the same level, to the right of the flag of the United States of America,
e) The flag of the United States of America should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags of States or localities or pennants of societies are grouped and displayed from staffs.
(f) When flags of States, cities, or localities, or pennants of societies are flown on the same halyard (pole) with the flag of the United States, the latter should always be at the peak.
When the flags are flown from adjacent staffs, the flag of the United States should be hoisted first and lowered last.
No such flag or pennant may be placed above the flag of the United States or to the United States flag's right side.
So I guess the use of the word "should" is confusing to the ACLU and to the Mexicans!!!
Oh btw, the Reno police say the US vet who "stoled" the American flag could face charges if the business owner files a police report about what happened.
AIN'T THAT A BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO KEEP YOUR COUNTRY?
Time is running out to save our country!
Our air, water and food is being poisoned, our land is being stripped of trees and other natural resouces basically unchecked.
Our children's toys are being contaminated, our medical system & our social services are going bankrupt, and our infrastructure is crumbling beneath us.
Our own government, who supposedly works for us, is selling us out to the highest bidders, and throwing our money away on every other nation except our own.
Our borders are being left wide open which invites illegal immigrants, illecit drugs, and those who would seek to destroy us from within!
Our jobs are being given away, our schools now pander to non-english speaking students, and our colleges are teaching us we need not defend nor care about America.
Everything we pay taxes for are being totally ignored by the very government who is there to take care of things.
Our leaders spend all their time defending their particular parties while doing NOTHING for the citizens (we the people) whom they work for.
How long will we stand by and do nothing??
What will it take for YOU to rise up and say enough is enough??

THE COUGH WORTH 6 MONTHS
Morrisville, N.C. - Police have charged a man with assault on a government officer after a policeman said the man coughed in his face 3 times during a traffic stop.
The perpetrator of this heinous crime, Kent Kauffman, said he did cough but it was towards the officer's waist, not his face.
Kauffman says he developed the cough after his dog died last week.
He goes on to say the cop put him into handcuffs and then threw him into the side of his patrol car.
Officer Chris Gill says he had originally pulled Mr. Kauffman over for not wearng a seat belt.
Kauffman now faces a misdemeanor charge and, if convicted, could spend up to 60 days in jail.
It just goes to show ya...you can get away with alot of shit in this country but you better not cough on a cop!!
