Milenio & Excelsior (both Mexico City) 2/27/08

Marek Madej just arrived in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, on a flight from Madrid. It was a scale stop on his way to the U.S. But inspectors in Monterrey established that the Polish passport he presented was "false" (note: no info given as to whether it was altered or a total counterfeit). "Madej", born early '70 according to the passport, then said he was "Revon Salim Jopraeel", an Iraqi.
This is the fifth case of Iraqis who have arrived at that airport in the last few weeks and who have claimed to be citizens of some European country. (Our report of 2/21/08 relates)

Diario (Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua) 2/27/08

1. Update regarding the "narcograve" patio of the house in Juarez: the "PGR" (Dep't. of Justice) reported that they have now uncovered 5 bodies, two heads and three thoraxes. (Note: two other papers said nine bodies had been discovered)
There have now been twenty-three people murdered in Juarez this month up to the 25th.

2. Tuesday before dawn Mex. army personnel seized 5,800 packages of marihuana weighing approximately 4.5 tons at a house at #8125 Valle Colina St., Juarez, just a block from some schools. The armed criminals guarding the house fled in a Yukon and an Escalade before the military arrived.
This is the fifth locale within two weeks in which the military have found "high impact" amounts of illegal drugs or related items in Juarez.
- On 2/13/08 at Pradera Dorada St., 25 shoulder weapons
- Three days later, at Campestre Arboleda, 21 arrests, ten AK47 rifles, 2+ kilos of base cocaine, 13,000 doses of crack cocaine, military & federal investigative agency uniforms
- Feb. 20, a second drug factory in the Florencia subdivision; 7 arrests; 4 AK47's; two 9 mm. pistols
- Sat. 23rd, at Del Real subdivision: 700 kgs. of marihuana, 15 vehicles, 3 shoulder weapons, 4 arrests

3. Saul Sanchez, a citizen of Mexico residing in Kansas City, KS, was southbound in a vehicle with his wife and daughter at the border inspection gate to enter into Ciudad Juarez from the U.S. but the Mexican officials turned him around due to some reason related to the vehicle. So, Sanchez had to turn around and go through the northbound inspection gate at El Paso. There, an electronic density device led to a search of the doors of his vehicle. The find totaled 1 million 858 thousand 85 U.S. dollars in cash, all in 50, 20, 10 and 5 dollar bills wrapped in plastic and hidden in all five doors. This is the largest haul since April of '97.
Sanchez goes to court Monday.

4. The latest criminal ruse reported in Juarez:
Thugs go to a public parking area by a restaurant, select a vehicle, enter the restaurant and then announce that such-and-such a vehicle, license such-and-such, is blocking another vehicle which needs to leave. The owner of that vehicle then goes out to move his car, the thugs follow and then rob him and steal the vehicle or, alternatively, kidnap him and force him to withdraw money from his bank accounts.
(note: yesterday we reported on a national poll in Mexico showing that 59.6% of the public feared being victims of armed street robberies. Now a new local telephonic poll in Juarez shows the 92% of Juarez residents fear being victims of such a crime.)

Oh NO! NOT the Calderon of GUATEMALA!

Very interesting. The facts certainly off-set what LULAC, La Raza, Mecha and Geraldo Rivera all spout about illegals.

This is another one of those times I can't say out loud what I'm thinking.

zeezil,

Please can't anyone find any good news?

See what happens when a country that was successful and is now failing, how they all seem to think they can dictate to the USA?

Good move Politicians of the USA. I hope each and every one of you feels all this crap you have tossed at us, triple fold.

I guess this is who Calderwrong went running to for help after stating that he was going to approach an outside third country to intervene in the U.S. immigration issue. How dare these people! They're just afraid that they'll lose all of those remittances from America and may be faced with dealing directly with their people's poverty themselves!!!

Who pays for all these meeting with our government officials, we do.

This is not diplomacy. This IS direct intervention into the internal affairs of a recognized sovereign nation. (I can't say what I would like as a natural successor comment here, but the real solution is to get tough and not tolerate this outside interference).

The minnow will not eat the whale.

I will gladly return his countrymen so they will be well taken care of at home and happily send a bill for what we have done for them so far.

Does anyone know how much in remittances were sent to Guatemala last year? Over 4 billion dollars.

Gross domestic product (GDP, in U.S.$) $31.7 billion (2005)

Looks like the Remittances from the US are a big player in the Guatemala ecomomy.

Rosa said they will also seek to meet with Congressional representatives to discuss the need to give impulse to an integral reform which will benefit the immigrants of this country.

At the expense of U.S. citizens................

We need to start taxing remittances sent from the US to foreign countries......
