Border Patrol operation detains 160 in Mississippi

WASHINGTON - A special Border Patrol task force has apprehended 160 illegal immigrants in the first three days of operation.

"Operation Uniforce" is patrolling I-20 near Vicksburg because federal agents believe the interstate highway is a new corridor for smugglers who once used I-10 to ferry undocumented workers from the Mexican border to employers on the East Coast.

According to a Border Patrol report on Operation Uniforce, an informant said greater scrutiny of I-10 by federal agents has prompted some alien smugglers to use I-20.

The special operation of 40 Border Patrol agents, which included 12 from the agency's Gulfport office, began on Jan. 13 and is scheduled to continue until Jan. 26.

Most of the undocumented aliens apprehended in the operation are Mexican nationals. But two are from "special interest" countries - an Egyptian and a Palestinian from the West Bank.

Also detained is a murder suspect from El Salvador.

Real smart--publish the schedule. Attention Illegal Immigrant Smugglers--postpone your illegal trip until after January 26th.

Carry the battle to them. Don't let them bring it to you. Put them on the defensive and don't ever apologize for anything.â€

AMEN MY AMERICA !!! AMEN !!!

All state troopers and state highway patrol officers in every state should be deputized under 287(g)....it works. The smugglers will feel the heat and won't be so "inconspicuous" if they are forced to travel local highways, and roads. The likelihood of something going wrong and being caught if they are in heavily travelled local roads is probably greater. Remember folks, if you are on the road and see something suspicous you can always call
-1-866-DHS-2ICE to report and can be done anonymously.
