A secret federal document reveals that there were dozens of armed incursions by Mexican soldiers and police into the United States during Fiscal Year 2007.

The report was obtained by the Washington-based legal organization Judicial Watch, a group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption.

These subjects set fire to the stalled vehicle before leaving the area."

"Where is the outrage by our leaders in Washington over these blatant attacks on US sovereignty? Where are the church pastors warning Americans about these armed invaders from Mexico?" asks political strategist Michael J. Baker.

"We're in the midst of a presidential election cycle and yet no one is pressuring the candidates in either political party to protect our borders and our people," said Baker.

Judicial Watch noted that of the 29 documented incidents, 17 involved armed Mexican government agents.

The document also states that between 1996 and September 30, 2006 there were 253 confirmed incursions into the United States by Mexican government personnel. Prior to release to Judicial Watch, the Department of Homeland Security evaluated the information in the report as “For Official Use Onlyâ€
