America, Know Thine Enemies!

Allan J. Ashinoff
October 10, 2006
Americans are starved for leadership when it comes to illegal immigration. Citizens and are near giddy when it appears a lofty self-inflated politico descends from his or her stratosphere and actually seems to understand the concerns of those who elected them. Americans, especially those in the Border States, are frightfully concerned over the increased crime, swelling prison population, rising health care costs, and drug trafficking as a result of approximately twelve million illegal Mexicans hiding in plain sight in their cities.

Decades of federal and state neglect in dealing with America’s sovereignty has birthed the Minuteman Project in southern Arizona. The Minuteman Project is a citizens group comprised of concerned Americans who are fed up with the decades of political apathy regarding America’s border, her culture, and her sovereignty. Its mission was - and is- to do that which the government refuses….protect America’s heritage and ensure America’s future by way of securing America’s borders.

Illegal Immigration has been an issue that politicians have repeatedly considered too big a problem to rectify without a ‘comprehensive’ approach. Yet, the Minutemen have successfully shown that a relatively small and modestly equipped group of determined American citizens can make a huge impact on the flow of illegal aliens coming into the United States. A task the United States government has been most unwilling to undertake and worked to undermine.

Comprised of civilian volunteers these patriotic Americans have dedicated their money and their time to sit in the bleak southwestern desert with binoculars, hand held radios, food and water, and first aid gear to report the movements of illegal aliens across the southwestern borders to the US Border Patrol. The Minutemen have not only disrupted the flow of illegal aliens into the United States but have provided food, water, and first aid to those who could have died in their potentially deadly crossing. Despite the dramatic reduction of illegal crossing in areas the Minutemen have patrolled and despite the lives saved by the Minutemen simply being present on the border, the organization’s noble effort is vilified by some within their nation.

Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union have taken notice of the Minutemen Project. The ACLU has actively worked to thwart the Minutemen’s efforts to protect American sovereignty. ACLU supporters have identified Minutemen patrolling points and routes to illegal border crossers. The American Civil Liberties Union has staged numerous protests against those who are simply (and peacefully) trying to exercise their right to peaceful assembly, to exercise free speech, and to preserve their country. In desperate futility the ACLU has tried – and continues to try - to portray the Minutemen as violent racists.

The President of the United States has also taken notice of his ‘fellow Americans’ efforts to secure America’s southern border. In fact, President George W. Bush has identified and labeled those ‘fellow Americans’ which comprise the Minutemen Project as ‘vigilantes.’ This single, misguided, and blatantly false statement has seriously damaged President Bush’s credibility among his base as well as patriotic Americans of any political ideology. The harm of his ill-chosen words on the Republican Party in the 2006 and 2008 elections is yet to be realized. The President of the United States believes that US Citizens non-violently exercising their right to a secure an autonomous America is a bad thing?

The federal government of the United States has attempted to prevent the Minutemen and even its own Border Patrol from being successful. Border Patrol Agents have been told not to attend Minutemen meetings. US Border Patrol agents have been told not to apprehend illegal aliens in Minutemen patrolled areas after the Minutemen have moved to patrol another site. This was supposedly done to lessen the perception of the border watch group’s effectiveness. The US Border Patrol has gone as far as reporting the Minutemen’s patrol stations to the Mexican government which in turn posted those sites on a public webpage for those trafficking human cargo across the border to see.

The Mexican government for financial reasons ($20 Billion approximately) promotes the illegal migration of Mexican nationals to the United States. An illustrated guide for crossing the US deserts and blending into the population of America has been distributed by the Mexican government. The flood of illegal aliens from Mexico into the United States has Mexican politicians touring US cities to campaign for office in Mexico. Apparently approximately 12 million illegal aliens draining Americas economy, inflating health care costs, increasing crime, and degrading American culture is an acceptable fact of life for the ACLU and the President of the United States.


The US House of Representatives recently voted on the Secure Fence Act of 2006 (House Roll Call 446). Congress passed H.R. 6061 by a 283-138 margin with ten member’s not voting (dereliction of duty?) and one (playing it safe) answering present. It is commendable that 64 Democrats broke party lines to honor their oath to serve the United States over their personal or party interests. But the vote to try to assert American sovereignty in the House was mainly along party lines with 131 Democrats voting not to extend the existing wall between the US and Mexico an additional 700 miles.

In an election year the Democrats are trying to erase the public memory of their constant obstructionist anti-American positions in the War on Terror. Repeatedly limelight seeking Democrats like Nancy Pelosi, John Murtha, Cynthia McKinney, and Charles Rangel have devoted much time and effort in condemning the actions of United States’ military and its leadership during a time of a uniquely unconventional war. For political position they chastise and critique President Bush’s every action while – typical for a Democrat – they offer no constructive alternative on how to combat America’s enemy. It is truly no surprise that those very prominent media savvy Democrats were among the 131 who voted against extending the border fencing between the US and Mexico. After all, Democrat Liberals are nothing if not constant in their contempt of America, her culture, and her role in the world.

Perhaps the most surprising development in those voting against America’s need to secure the border with Mexico are the 8 Republicans who betrayed the public trust. Of those eight, arguably the most despicable is Republican Congressmen Jim Kolbe of Arizona. Any Republican who can witness firsthand the degradation of American society in their state (a consequence of lackadaisical immigration enforcement) and then opts not to try anything reasonable (like a physical barrier or proff of citizenship when voting) to preserve the country, is truly the domestic enemy of every American citizen. Republicans profess to be patriotic men of values and are therefore heldf to a higher standard by their constituents. This places their fidelity to the nation at a premium where Democrats like Congressmen Ed Pastor and Raul Grijalva of Arizona (who also voted against the Border Fence extension) are merely following their party's anti-American ambitions for perceived political gain.


The 2006 general election is fast approaching. Politicians are polishing their already lustrous shtick to convince potential voters those not polarized by hatred or an issue that they are worthy of a vote. In the attempt to walk the line between those positions that buy public support and those positions that buy TV time, politicians say one thing before the camera while committing their votes on issues to what their lobbyist supporters require for large contributions. Savvy politicians know that there are so many thickly paged bills packed with dozens of conditions and concessions written in legalese that none but a professional lobbyist with a vested financial interest could ever hope to dedicate the time to decode and understand what really is being proposed in Congress or the Senate. In this way politicians gamble that no citizen with a life would religiously watch CSPAN long enough to hear the bits of apologetic rhetoric spoken at 3 am explaining the neglecting America’s sovereignty or degrading its values. In this way the government functions against its people.

In no small part to the efforts of the Minutemen, the Americans for Legal Immigration and other concern citizens group like them, the Border Fence Act of 2006 has passed through the House of Representatives, was approved by the Senate 80-19 (along party lines once again), and was signed into law by President Bush. The politicians have been made to set aside (albeit temporarily) their own ambitions and motives to conform to the will of the American people on the issue of illegal immigration.

Those who voted against the Border Fence Act of 2006 have plainly shown where their loyalties lie. Those politicians, who may obstruct, circumvent, or delay the funding of the Border Fence Act of 2006 will also reveal their true allegiance. Americans must take note of those in public office whose devotion rests not with the American people but with interests suited to foreign entities. Americans must re-assert their inalienable right to shape their government, dictate their own values, and demand the protection of their uniqueness on this earth. 2006 is a year of concern (feigned or otherwise) for many politicians; A year where the public grants or denies office to those who hunger for political power. The time is right to strong-arm the lofty political elitists into honoring their most sacred commission - the preservation of America as a sovereign nation.

Americans must recognize all of their enemies, especially those residing in government.

No, not insanity: TREASON

Any Republican who witnesses’ first hand the degradation of American society in their state as a consequence of lackadaisical immigration enforcement and chooses not to try anything reasonable (like a physical barrier or proof of citizenship when voting) to preserve the country is truly the domestic enemy of every American citizen.
