Mexican aliens seek to retake 'stolen' land

DENVER -- La reconquista, a radical movement calling for Mexico to "reconquer" America's Southwest, has stepped out of the shadows at recent immigration-reform protests nationwide as marchers held signs saying, "Uncle Sam Stole Our Land!" and waved Mexico's flag.
Even as organizers urged marchers to display U.S. flags, the theme of reclaiming "stolen" land remained strong. One popular banner read: "If you think I'm illegal because I'm a Mexican, learn the true history because I'm in my homeland."
"We need to change direction," said Jose Lugo, an instructor in Ethnic Studies at the University of Colorado at Boulder at a campus march last week. "And by allowing these 50,000, 50 million [immigrants] to come in here, we can do that."
The revolutionary tone has surprised even longtime immigration watchers such as Ira Mehlman, the Los Angeles-based spokesman for the Federation for American Immigration Reform.
"I've always been skeptical myself about this [reconquista], but what I've seen over the last few weeks leads me to believe that there's more there than I thought," Mr. Mehlman said.
"You're seeing people marching with Mexican flags chanting, 'This is our country.' I don't think that we can dismiss this as youthful exuberance or a bunch of hotheads," he said.
Hispanic rights leaders insist there's nothing to the so-called reconquista, sometimes referred to as Aztlan, the mythical ancestral homeland of the Aztecs that reportedly stretches from the border to southern Oregon and Colorado.
Nativo Lopez, president of the Mexican American Political Association in Los Angeles, one of the march organizers, was infuriated when a reporter asked him about the reconquista.
"I can't believe you're bothering me with questions about this. You're not serious," Mr. Lopez said. "I can't believe you're bothering with such a minuscule, fringe element that has no resonance with this populous."
At the same time, some analysts say the seismic demographic shifts brought on by unchecked border crossings and birth rates are resulting in a de facto reconquista.
"Demographically, socially and culturally, the reconquista of the Southwest United States by Mexico is well under way," Harvard University professor Samuel P. Huntington said in 2004.
"No other immigrant group in U.S. history has asserted or could assert a historical claim to U.S. territory. Mexicans and Mexican-Americans can and do make that claim," he said.

A three-minute videotape made by the Immigration Watchdog Web site plays speeches by Hispanic professors and elected officials making references to Aztlan and the idea of a demographic takeover.
"We are millions. We just have to survive. We have an aging white America. They are not making babies. They are dying. It's a matter of time. The explosion is in our population," Jose Angel Gutierrez, political science professor at the University of Texas at Arlington, said on the videotape. In an interview, Mr. Gutierrez said there was "no viable" reconquista movement. He blamed interest in the issue on closed-border groups and "right-wing blogs" such as American Patrol and L.A. Watchdog, but those Web sites are getting plenty of ammunition from groups like La Voz de Aztlan, a Whittier, Calif.-based news service that advocates a separatist state while criticizing Jews and "gringos."
Then there's the Mexica Movement, which wants to "reconstruct" the United States as an "indigenous" nation called Anahuac. Professor Charles Truxillo of the University of New Mexico envisions a sovereign Hispanic nation called the Republica del Norte that would encompass Northern Mexico, Baja California, California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.
MEChA, an acronym for the Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan, has come under fire for revolutionary language in its "El Plan de Aztlan," a founding document that declares "the independence of our mestizo nation," decries the "brutal gringo invasion," and says that land "rightfully ours will be fought for and defended."
What's notable about MEChA is its otherwise mainstream image. Most Hispanic leaders, including Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, belonged to MEChA in high school or college. Former Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante came under fire from conservatives for refusing to renounce his membership during the 2003 gubernatorial race.
Federico Rangel, a University of Colorado graduate student and MEChA officer, said most students view Aztlan as part of their history, not as a rallying cry for revolution.
"Aztlan isn't what people say it is, like the reconquista," said Mr. Rangel, who carried a MEChA sign at Monday's rally. "It's a spiritual homeland to Chicanos."

The Washington Times left out part of the statement I put in bold....in this statement, this guy said they may have to kill white people.....

This is a great leap forward! This information making the Washington Times is a huge score for our movement. This information that has been concealed or ignored by the MSM is rising to the top now in the face of the OBVIOUS separatist movements on our streets.

Adding this to the homepage shortly

Maybe Easter is helping people to see the truth. Whatever it is, it's a breath of fresh air on a pretty day.

I think the Washington Times is the only major newspaper that is actually on our side .... we have some good friends there!

Time to start mobilizing! They might have the immediate numbers but we have the brains!

Mamie, The Washington Times is GREAT. They are so clear, factual, and basically they say it like it is. I really appreciate them.

Onetrickydude, when I saw your name I said, "OMG, even President Bush is posting at ALIPAC now !!"

Welcome to ALIPAC.

One week from now, we are going to be in MAJOR MOBILIZATION MODE and prepared to hold El Presidente at bay while some of our upright, law-abiding, decent, pro-America senators get this job done !!

Are you ready ?!!

Little lazy curds! Where were they in 1898? And what stopped them during the occupation of the early 20th century Austrian Rule of Mexico City and surrounding lands?

What was their "idea" during WWII??

Where were those fun loving Mexicans during Korea, Vietnam, or the Gulf Wars? Reconquista---not a chance---go lie down with dogs and get up with fleas! But you can repatriate the 18 Billion Dollars a year your ILLEGALES send to your sinkhole of a country! Maybe you should go strongarm and conquer the Vatican---they seem to have a big mouth and the funds to back it!

And if you aren't careful, you will become a "reconquistador" and view the United States of America, while awaiting deportation, from the inside of a jail cell!

The more you stay, and the more you say, the more you'll pay!

No threats---just a pure promise!

If the illegals have so much support & sympathy from our leaders now, while they are a minority, just think what will happen when they DO have a majority and can vote!
Of course, it is becoming obvious from the immigration issue that a majority does not rule this country. Our representatives, who we elect and pay for, are in bed with the invading army and seem to have no intention of listening to the majority who elected them to their high-powered jobs!
We have to get those borders secured before anything else. I see this as the single most important issue in this country today.
I wish we could have a Day Without Americans on this TAX DAY and see how far the gov. can get without us!

Welcome reform_now.

Great first post and I agree with EVERY word of it
