This Is A Joke, Right? (Trusted Traveler agreement with Mexico)

I mean, it has to be....


As violent drug cartels take over Mexico and expand their criminal enterprises north, the United States has signed a “trusted traveler” agreement that allows pre-screened Mexican airline passengers to bypass lengthy airport security checkpoints.

So some 84 million (ed: This may be thousands, as there is some dispute over translation - but if it's even ONE, the point still stands) Mexicans get to bypass "lengthy" airport security checkpoints (you mean, like being groped or virtually strip-searched with an X-ray machine?) while American Citizens who are willing to travel using something like, oh, a US Passport (which many of us have) are not afforded the same deference?

Never mind that the last two terrorist incidents that were attempted on airplanes (Mr. Shoe Bomber and Mr. Burns-off-his-Nuts) both boarded flights outside the United States headed inbound.

That is, not in the United States, not leaving the United States, but rather in a foreign land headed into The United States.

Yeah, that makes sense Big Sis. So does this:


While Napolitano was in Mexico finalizing the trusted traveler agreement this week, she also took the opportunity to sign a “letter of intent” to develop a plan for protecting immigrants from criminal attacks as they cross the border—illegally—into the U.S. Mexican officials have long complained that American law enforcement officers stand by as illegal immigrants are robbed, killed or violently beaten. Napolitano has committed to reducing the risk to life and security of migrants, according to the Mexican minister.

How about this: Shut the damn border down to illegal crossings?

While robbing, beating or killing an illegal migrant cannot be condoned one wonders who's doing the robbing, beating or killing? Perhaps it's the coyote (the Mexican, mostly) who is running these people illegally across the border? Yeah, that would make some sense, as those are the people who arguably have both motive and opportunity - especially if they didn't get "paid in full" as "agreed" for their unlawful trafficking in those people, right?

Rather than protect American Citizens and America from an invasion by those crossing the border illegally (and that's exactly what it is - an invasion) "Big Sis" instead commits acts of aggression against the citizens of this nation.

Oath of Office eh? Swore to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic, did 'ya?

Hmmmm...

(What's the definition of Treason again?)

This post has such a dehumanizing tone.

I cycle between feeling sick and sad now that I've read it.

Blech.

No joke:

From the DHS website (30 November, 2010)

http://dhs.gov/ynews/releases/pr_1291143177817.shtm


In Mexico City, Secretary Napolitano and Mexico Ministry of the Interior Secretary José Francisco Blake Mora signed an agreement expressing their intent to develop a Global Entry international trusted traveler program pilot between the United States and Mexico–leveraging the success of the United States' Global Entry program to facilitate secure, legitimate travel between the two nations.

Global Entry is a U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) program that allows pre-approved members who have undergone robust background checks and provided biometrics expedited customs processing–reducing average wait times while allowing law enforcement to focus on the most serious security threats at points of entry to our country. At Global Entry kiosks, members insert their passport or lawful permanent resident card into a document reader, provide digital fingerprints for comparison with fingerprints on file, answer customs declaration questions on the kiosk's touch-screen, and then present a transaction receipt to CBP officers before leaving the inspection area.

in conjuction with the proposed "dream" immigration program , methinks they are up to something

We are simply standing on the precipice of the New World Order goal.

From Bill Ryan's post:

What they are describing here, are the RFID insignias that are embossed on the front cover of passports. Because time is getting short, and they have not been allowed to implement the SPP or Security Prosperity Partnership, below, they have reverted to plan B.

Plan B, or this may possibly be plan C, includes allowing millions of people from Mexico and most likely Canada, to flow into the U.S. This influx will blend the populations of the three countries over time to promote the acceptance of the North American Union. This also destabilizes the U.S. population. The overall plan for this part of the world is the NAU.


Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America - my bolding and underlining emphasis

The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) was a region-level dialogue with the stated purpose of providing greater cooperation on security and economic issues.

(Lou) Dobbs claimed at the time that US President Bush, who left office on January 20, 2009, was to have bypassed Congress and ultimately create a Union based on a Texas highway corridor. One variation of this theory was that President Bush would declare a state of emergency to avoid leaving office, which, in fact, never came about; on January 20, 2009, his successor, Barack Obama, who had openly voiced misgivings about NAFTA, the predecessor to SPP, let alone SPP itself, took office as US President, but his anti-NAFTA views soon disappeared from his public persona.

Some thirty US-based organizations also sent an open letter to Congress on April 21, 2008 criticizing the secrecy and lack of any sort of democratic oversight:

"What differentiates the SPP from other security and trade agreements is that it is not subject to Congressional oversight or approval. The SPP establishes a corporate/government bureaucracy for implementation that excludes civil society participation. ... Facing a worrisome pact pushed forward in secrecy, it is time for Congress to halt this undemocratic approach and establish a process based on openness, accountability, and the participation of civil society.

In August 2009, the SPP website was updated to say: "The Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) is no longer an active initiative. There will not be any updates to this site."

includes allowing millions of people from Mexico and most likely Canada.\

Ah, no. Not on the Canadian part, anyway.

Many Canadians define themselves as 'Not Being American'. Nothing against Americans it's just that when Canadians 'come to' and grow up, getting their bearings..... they go, 'whew!, that was close! nearly born American there... -Glad to be Canadian.'

Sure, there's lots of Canadians south of the border. By and large, very much larger part of the crew of Canadians that are in the States is the 'higher education' crew. Ie, one of the largest 'cities' in Canada is around Silicon Valley. Canadian people really filled the body out in the required areas in Silicon Valley area. Somewhere near 1M high educated Canadians are in the US, mostly concentrated around Silicon Valley. American corporate/technological might is in part due to Canadian blood and efforts.

As well Canadians made NASA work. There's no getting around that. Stolen from the Avro Arrow program, many to most of them... as Canada had the world's most advanced Jet fighter by a Stunningly HUGE margin. Before the US government and corporations stepped into completely crush it, that is.

This is just as crazy as it gets. Why can't we be trusted travelers in our own country?

[PHARAOH]

If your looking to conduct AL-C-I- AIDA false flag operations in the US you must have a loop hole in security and someone or some country to blame. Are you really surprised??? Remember the passage she gave our Mexicans nieghbors when the swineflu was suppose to kill us all? They were not checked nor considered a threat even though the swine flu supposedly originated from Mexico. Shes only looking out for our best intrests.... yeah right!

[Olam]

There is lots to say about all this, but mainly i think at the end of the day, money will prevail and yes it will make it easier for very rich criminals to go back and fourth without problems. Money always wins unfortunately. I have seen this in Canada too, my ex-step father was a very rich man and he would not have to go thru canadian customs coming back from europe. Along with that came cases of expensive wine, sculptures, you name it, all under the radar.
Again, money money money.

Exactly. I have the opposite opinion on border control to most. I don't think we should have any borders. Nationalism like religion is one of those concepts that has cost millions of lives throughout history.

North America is a continent. We draw artificial lines and say "you stay on that side of the line", build walls, enact legislation, fund enforcement and argue about US vs THEM.

When are we going to see ourselves as all human and mother earth as our collective home?

Besides, immigration is a social inequity problem. If you want to solve the problem of people causing violence to cross an imaginary line then give people on both sides of the line the same quality of life. You'll never solve terrorism with war, you'll never solve the drug problem with prohibition, and you'll never solve immigration as long as social inequalities exist.

The true enemy of the NWO is people who believe they have rights afforded to them by their constitutional republic aka "educated" upper and middle class Americans, professionals etc.. We really don't anymore. Now we've legally lost our sovereignty it must be demonstrated in the most extreme and absurd ways possible. I think that's how it goes. Open to correction..
