I am surprised that we caught them at all. Do you think the Mexican authorities made a phone call to the US authorities right after telling these "illegals" to go North? Not out of any love for the US. Perhaps, the Mexican authorities didn’t want them in their country....knew where they really wanted to go....but were also concerned about being unfavorably associated with what they might do once they crossed our border? |

Actually Detroit has a very large population of Chaldeans. Who escaped Iraq for the same reason we are fighting the war on terror. So their story doesn’t seem all to unlikely to me. A good vetting should bring out their intentions, If they check out welcome to the melting pot. |

I live with an Iraqi refugee of the most recent war. He can’t go back because people want to kill him. He got into this country legally with a visa, but I can’t imagine he would have cared if he was an illegal alien or not. Who knows about the Iraqis who crossed in Mexico. It’s good to be suspicious, and indeed the border should be secured. But most Iraqis are not terrorists. If you’re talking percentages... it’s not likely that those particular Iraqis are terrorists. But you never know I guess. |

The greek passports are for????
Yeah, sure. Overlook that.
and NO, not welcome to the melting pot - go home (or if seeking political asylum, our embassy), fill out the papers, and come back legally. |

Richmond Centrist,
I don’t think the point is that these people should automatically be considered terrorists. I think the point is that if "good" Iraqis are trying to get across, it’s not a huge stretch to assume "bad" Iraqis are trying to get across. |

I don’t think the point is that these people should automatically be considered terrorists. 3 Iraqi males in their 20s, with Greek passports trying to sneak in and when caught use "we’re persecuted Christains" (cover story?) as their excuse?
They may very well not be terrorists, but they might have tried a little harder not to set off every alarm bell indicating they are. |

and since they would not be persecuted in Greece or Iraq anymore, they should be sent back. |

Maybe ham sandwichs are in order for lunch while they discuss it.
While they’re waiting for sandwiches they could be given pads of paper and be asked to doodle little pictures of the prophet Mohammed. |
