Home >> United States & Canada Immigration Reconquista: Mexico's Retaking of US Territory
Jake Jacobsen and MJ Jacobsen - 3/28/2008
The what is the “retaking” of vast portions of the American southwest: the phrase itself translates as “the reconquest.” Things gFirst, lets talk about what we think is the less concerning of the two. It’s led by groups such as MECha, which others might lull you into believing no longer has any desire to take back La Raza's stolen land of Aztlan, except their name still means the Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan. Their race-driven activities are aided and abetted by groups like the NCLR, whose well-known slogan means “for The Race everything, outside the race nothing.” The Mexican Border and Culturist History Lessons
Prof. John Press - 3/6/2008
Culturist thought can improve the insights of our historians. This, in turn, can lead to policy implications. Applying culturist insights to the book Translating Property by Maria E. Montoya provides examples in spades. This book discusses how we settled land disputes after our victory in the Mexican – American War. The importance of our border with Mexico makes analyzing the way we look at the outcome of this dispute vitally important. ACLU's War On U.S. Immigration Law
Prof. Nicholas Stix - 12/10/2007
While President George W. Bush, ICE, and Congress act as if the U.S. had no immigration laws and no borders, some heroic local officials and private organizations have nevertheless sought, against all odds, to enforce and uphold immigration law. And every time they have done so, the ACLU has been there to fight them, on behalf of the criminals invading America. How Diasporas Can Help the Motherland
Sam Vaknin, Ph.D. - 11/27/2007
The following steps are considered to be the "minimum package" in the strengthening of relationships between countries of origin and national diasporas: Bush Pardons Turkeys While Eagles Romas and Compean Remain Caged
Dan Howard - 11/26/2007
I would give anything if I could write a syrupy-sweet, all-is-fine Thanksgiving Day message for you today. However, I have always taken pride in my endeavor of not being politically correct, but rather just ‘correct.’ Unfortunately while we should obviously offer thanks that we are still ‘technically’ free, we are in a battle to save our country. Immigration: Betrayal By Black Elites
Elizabeth Wright - 11/7/2007
Black blogger Byron Crawford sort of, kind of gets it. Usually quite caustic in his anti-white bias, this time he realistically speculates on the degree to which so-called white privilege might be indelibly linked to the privileges of freedom enjoyed by all Americans, including blacks. Is the Anti-Illegal Immigrant Movement Racist?
Robert Lindsay - 10/4/2007
It's actually a trick question. Some of them are, for sure. Racists will always join any movement critical of immigration. So what? This entire argument rests on a fallacious assumption. That the presence of one group in a movement means that all of the other members of the movement share the feelings of that one group. Amnesty: Kicking Butt and Taking Names
Matt Parrott - 7/4/2007
The American people pummeled the amnesty bill last week. The full weight of the executive office, the big business lobby, the hispanic lobby, the Republican leadership, the mainstream media, and even Fox News was orchestrated behind a historically unprecedented putsch. Never have the special interests been so visible and direct in the pursuit of their anti-American agenda. The saying goes "kicking butt and taking names". We just did the butt-kicking, but we also have to follow through by taking names. Aztlan - End Of The American Dream
Fjordman - 6/17/2007
In March 2005, US President Bush, Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin and Mexican President Vicente Fox announced the establishment of the “Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America.” This was meant to implement a common border-facilitation strategy to improve the “flow of people and cargo at our shared borders.” Driver's Licenses to Illegals: Threat to National Security
Joe Armendariz - 6/17/2007
Californians are getting ready for another debate over illegal Mexican immigration, including the most recent fight over demands that driver's licenses be issued to illegal immigrants. Because of the power of the Mexican lobby in California and the support they get from liberal Democrats, anything can happen now that California's state legislature is back in session. EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW: Jim Gilchrist of Minuteman Project on Immigration, Terror, Elections
David Storobin, Esq. - 5/31/2007
Today I spoke to Jim Gilchrist, the founder of the Minuteman Project. The most striking part of the interview was how mild his views on immigration truly were. The man has been vilified by most of the Left and even much of the Right, including the White House. He’s supposed to be an immigrant-hating vigilante who dreams of dead Mexicans at night. Instead, he’s an intelligent, mild-mannered person with very reasonable proposals that include supporting a limited H1b temporary visa program for skilled workers and about 200,000 legal immigrants annually. We also covered the War of Terror, U.S. Presidential elections, and the Minuteman Project dispute, among other issues. From the Land of the Free to North American Union?
Fjordman - 5/31/2007
I mentioned earlier my theory that US authorities and politicians on both sides, including the Bush administration, are doing so little to uphold US border controls with Mexico because they have already decided that the border is scheduled for demolition anyway, in favor of a North American Union. I was accused of paranoia by some, but I am increasingly certain that this interpretation is correct after reading about the European Union. Many powerful elitists do in fact view the European bloc as a success, and are adopting similar tactics of gradually abandoning border controls by bureaucratic and administrative decisions, with little or no public debate. Immigration Day - Illegal Aliens and the Media March Together
Prof. Nicholas Stix - 5/15/2007
They want your job, your property, and your country. And they have powerful accomplices. On May 1, Americans again saw thousands – but at least this time, not millions – of federal criminals take to the streets, demanding recognition of their “right” to continue committing crimes. The criminals were supposedly also simultaneously “boycotting America,” though they had a most peculiar way of going about a boycott. Invasion from Mexico: Insecure Borders, Islamic Terrorism, Sex Slavery
Joe Armendariz - 5/11/2007
Every year roughly 800,000 sex-slaves are smuggled into countries around the world, including the U.S. Many of the sex-slaves are brought to the United States through the border with Mexico. Likewise, Islamic terrorists have also been known to come through Mexico to the United States. While poor Mexicans who come to the U.S. to perform the often unwanted jobs may be a problem for the county, terrorists and mobsters transferring sex-slaves into the United States create a much greater issue. Mexification and the Future of the United States
Fjordman - 4/30/2007
I got some angry comments at Little Green Footballs when I said that the violence by Mexican gangs in Los Angeles is close to what should be called ethnic cleansing. But judging from this latest story in The Guardian, I think that term is appropriate. And to your American readers: This is one of the reasons why I haven’t left Europe for the United States yet. First, it’s too early to say that Europe is los. And second, I am rather worried by the trends I see in the US, and wonder whether I would be leaving one sinking ship in favor of another sinking ship. Are Democrats Inviting Illegals Into Colorado?
Ross Kaminsky - 4/30/2007
On roughly party-line votes, the Colorado State House and Senate have both passed HB 1313 which will soon go to Governor Bill "Tax Hike" Ritter. It is hard to know what to make of the bill. In a way, it seems shockingly audacious, even for Democrats who work in the sanctuary city of Denver: It strikes language from the law which prevented the Department of Motor Vehicles from issuing licenses to illegal aliens. But then it appears to replace the language with a squishy version of a similar prohibition. Since it is very hard to understand why the Democrats would make such a change, I must assum... Agri-food Industry’s Deadly Cycle Feeds Immigration
Eric Holt-Gimenez - 10/23/2006
Just weeks before the elections, Congress is unable to agree on legislation regarding the nation's 12 million undocumented immigrants. Legislators are at loggerheads over such disparate proposals as conditional legalization, guest-worker programs and massive deportations. In a sad testimony to the lack of bipartisan leadership, the only thing Congress has authorized this year is the construction of a $2.2 billion, 700-mile fence on the Mexican border. Immigration and The Jean Refugees
Dr. Daryn Glassbrook - 9/18/2006
There are three kinds of complaints involved in the current anti-immigration backlash in the United States. First, there are legitimate concerns about alleged attempts by terrorists to cross the U.S.-Mexican border undetected or disguised as migrant workers. Second, there are grievances that are based on myth, hearsay, and disinformation—such as the false claim that undocumented workers are a drain on the economy. Then there are the complaints that are symptomatic of the tragically narrow perspective many ordinary Americans bring to bear on the world we live in. It is this kind of complaint th... Immigration: the missing link in developing puzzle
Navraj Goyal - 7/10/2006
No single issue has the potential of bringing the world together than immigration, yet it is this issue that is turning out to be the most divisive. It has left the public opinion bitterly acrimonious and divided everywhere whether it is a country of origin or destination. As the US Senate debates the fate of millions of existing and potential immigrants in the country, the battle lines are sharply drawn between the pro- and anti-immigration camp. In France, the issue is proving to be so explosive that riots broke out. In Holland, the expulsion of liberal Somali-born intellectual Ayan Hirsi Ali led to tremendous hue and cry. America’s Broken Immigration Policy
Prof. Peter Morici - 5/22/2006
The United States has an unwritten but plain immigration policy. The U.S. Border Patrol imposes significant risks on people seeking to enter illegally but once inside the country, illegal immigrants usually can find work and remain here. They manage to obtain false documents or work off the books, and they account for at least five percent of the workforce. Goods are moving, let people move
Navraj Goyal - 5/2/2006
In Detroit, credit rating agencies Standard & Poor's (S&P) and Moody's reduced the debt ratings of US car maker Ford further to 'junk' status in January. Last year in June, Delphi completed the first phase of its $50 million R&D center in Shanghai -tipped to become one of the top five Delphi technical centers globally by 2009. Meanwhile at Capitol Hill, the US lawmakers debate an important immigration reform bill as about half a million protesters gather against plans to criminalise undocumented workers. At the same time, Prime Minister Villepin struggles in Paris to push for a law that would make it easy for the employers to hire and fire workers belonging to a certain age group. Protests Turn the Tide on Immigration Debate
Laura Carlsen - 4/17/2006
The immigration demonstrations held across the country not only marked an historic mobilization of one of the nation's most silenced sectors. They also turned the tide on a national debate that threatened the basic values and cohesion of U.S. communities. INTERVIEW: Scott Gulbransen, Author of "The Silent Invasion", on Immigration
Ryan Mauro - 4/4/2006
Scott Gulbransen wrote a book entitled "The Silent Invasion" describing Marxism, terrorism, intelligence operations, covert economic warfare, corruption and enemy operatives in Latin America. Gulbransen makes a stunning case that the rumors about units of Chinese, Cuban, Russian, and North Korean nationals being in Mexico, engaging in various anti-American activities. Armed with enough investigation, facts and eyewitness reports to make any defense lawyer whimper, Gulbransen reveals a fraction of the frightening truth about what is going on south of the border, where all threats to the USA min... That Damned Wall - Building Barrier On America's Southern Border
Luis Figueroa - 1/17/2006
Miguel Vargas Alvarez, a Spanish singer, used to sing, many moons ago, a tune that went something like “That damned wall”. A tune that my father used to sing to laugh at me because I sleep walked. U.S. Immigration Policy on the Table at the WTO
Sarah Anderson - 12/3/2005
In the contentious negotiations leading up to the December 13-18 World Trade Organization (WTO) summit, the big drama has centered around agricultural trade and whether the richer countries will grant expanded market access to commodities from the Global South. However, there has also been a battle brewing between developing countries and the U.S. government over immigration. Led by India, several countries are demanding expansion of U.S. visa programs for temporary professional workers. Immigration Advocates Face Challenges
Tom Barry - 9/3/2005
As anti-immigration sentiment rises, the voices advocating a liberal immigration policy confront new challenges. The most obvious challenges—including new anti-immigrant legal measures, rising anti-immigrant bias in the media, and an expanding backlash movement against immigration—are not necessarily the most difficult ones. Resounding Success: Minutemen Have Made a Difference on the Border and in Washington
Jeff Hartwick, Esq. - 4/20/2005
In recent days, the Minuteman Project (MMP) has stirred up a lot of controversy for its activity along the U.S.-Mexico border. Liberal activists have been concerned about possible "human rights violations" against illegal aliens by the MMP volunteers. And even President Bush implied that the Minutemen were "vigilantes." But the critics have been proved wrong. The project has thus far been a resounding success. Landmark Legal Decision May Open U.S. Border to Chinese from Indonesia
Jemma Purdey, Ph.D. - 2/1/2005
A recent decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals in San Francisco provides historic precedent for claims for political asylum launched in the US by ethnic Chinese Indonesians. In early October 2004 the US court upheld the appeal for political asylum launched by Taty Sael, a Chinese Indonesian now living in Sacramento, California, on the basis that if she returned to Indonesia she would face persecution on the basis of her ethnicity. The San Francisco Chronicle reported that the court based its decision on 'the continued existence of anti-Chinese laws and a history of periodic attacks from the 1... |
