Terrorists Getting Mexican Passports?

An Americas Report news investigation shows individuals posing a terror threat to the United States are increasingly obtaining access to stolen or doctored passports, which then can be used to obtain visas to enter the U.S. with the purpose of carrying out terrorist attacks.

The report notes several instances where this has already happened:

Four of the 19 hijackers from 9/11 carried genuine Saudi passports that had been "manipulated in a fraudulent manner" to obtain genuine U.S. visas.

In 2005, four individuals were charged with smuggling dozens of Iraqis and Jordanians into the U.S. through South America beginning in 2001 on stolen European passports.

In 2007, an NBC News investigation uncovered a black market for stolen passports in Latin America.

Last week, three Afghani Muslim men were caught carrying genuine stolen Mexican passports with their pictures and data while en route to Europe.

The report notes that Latin America, which now has a large Hezbollah presence, especially in Argentina, Venezuela, Paraguay and Brazil, is increasingly becoming the point of entry because documents are easily obtained.

In addition to those countries is Nicaragua, which has a large Iranian presence. Iran also has a huge embassy in Managua “where diplomats enjoy immunity and the full support of President Daniel Ortega,â€

And what is our government doing?

That tri- border region in South America is notorious as a no-man's land of crime and corruption---and a terrorists hideout as well. I think there were some stories on PBS' Frontline about it. It is the region where Brazil, Paraguay and Argentina join together.

Last week, three Afghani Muslim men were caught carrying genuine stolen Mexican passports with their pictures and data while en route to Europe.

I dont mean to sound racist here, but I cant tell the difference between some Middle-Eastern people from Hispanic people. Its the same as trying to tell the difference between a white Irish person and a white German person. There isnt any difference. And because MOST illegal aliens are Hispanic and because it is the largest growing minority in the U.S., Middle-eastern terrorists choose Mexican and other Hispanic id's because they resemble each other.
