Official: No terrorists using Mexico
2005-03-22
A top Mexican official Monday denied the possibility that terrorists groups had used Mexico to enter the United States, El Universal reported. Mexican Attorney General Rafael Macedo de la Concha said authorities always are attentive to the issue and the antiterrorism department has been directed to be alert for any evidence of such actions. De la Concha said Mexico and the United States work "as equals" to combat crime and drug trafficking along the border. He said the Mexican Justice Department will participate in a Wednesday Texas meeting of presidents Vicente Fox and George W. Bush, during which border issues and terrorism will be discussed.

#5  Nope. Just drug dealers, illegals, gang members, and other assorted criminals. Nothing scary like terrorists. Nothing to worry about from down here. Sleep well, gringos...

Somehow, I suspect that their definition of "crime" doesn't include their nationals jumping the border....

Yes, our side is understaffed and underfunded; most of theirs is on the take. So all equals-out.
