STRATFOR Website
http://www.stratfor.com/
I wanted to post this, since for the last six months, I've been reading a blog/service "on line" named STRATFOR.com.
STRATFOR was designed, I suspect, by retired or free lance/independent intelligence analysts. The daily information provided by STRATFOR has allowed me to stay current on any # of key, critical "geopolitical happenings." As a bachelor's degree Political Science Major (interest in East Asian Polticial Systems & Middle Eastern Political Systems), I read about this stuff daily because I'm an information j u n k i e. I lurth knowing "... what's up?" I'm sometimes pulled waaaaaay down by the stuff that goes on in the world today, but am reluctant to stick my head in the sand and just "tune it all out."
I had to wait for a rock bottom value registration offer before I could afford the price of STRATFOR. I'd guess that one other such site on the Internet, "GlobalSecurity.org" is much the same type of venue. That one, I believe, was started by former Union of Atomic Scientist membrer, Douglas Pike. STRATFOR, as far as I can tell, isn't as broad as GlobalSecurity.org, with massive information on the status of all global military forces (conventional and nuclear), in the world; descriptions of weapons systems, etc.
However, if you want to really stay tuned to regional and topical points of interest, STRATFOR's just fine.
Lately they've published a series of articles relating to the situation on our borders to the south.
I am of the opinion that we MUST develop a comprehensive immigration plan. I don't like the idea, anymore than many, of people coming to the U.S. just to have kids, so the kids will be born as "Americans." That's gamey, & it feels like b.s. I want a comprehensive plan, and I've developed my own. I don't think it amounts to amnesty, since there are many steps people have to take to avail themselves of this time limited offer.
The plan I add here would only be open for at most, two years.
Yes, the Government would have to hire thousands of time sensitive government workers (as they do with census workers), to process the paper work in the implementation of such a plan
On the other hand, this would "clear the decks," or, as many of us have come to know ... "reboot" the system, so that all of the excuses and arguments for or against comprehensive immigration policy would be "mooted out" by this window of opportunity. Every illegal immigrant in the U.S. would have to identify themselves within this window. That firsts phase of the process would carry with it a 90 day opening to declare: Yes, I want to stay, how can I do that? or,
No, I don't want to stay.
Simultaneously, while this process was underway, the Border Patrol, ICE, etc., would have already hired about 20% MORE agents and employees than are currently at work. U.S. military units, stationed in Arizona, California, New Mexico and Texas, would have units that are currently deployed to Afghanistan or Iraq, would augment the increased border presence, so as to seriously interdict crossing by illegals. Army, Navy, Marine, Coast Guard and Air Force security poiice units, with combat experience in Afghanistan or Iraq, would work the borders. The Border Patrol & ICE would work the cities & towns, declaring that illegals located there, should identify themselves within the window of opportunity, or face arrest & deportation.
Anyone who has been in the country more than a year, and has not learned English, nor made any attempt to become a citizen, but who has children born here, must decide how those children will be cared for, and the plan submitted with any application to either "go" or "stay." WE should not be responsible for children under 18 of families where parents are NOT citizens, or immigrants applying for citizenship.
We should also coordinate this over all immigration plan, with a massive public relations campaign, initiated by President Obama, to ask all drug users in the U.S.: do you REALLY think you don't have blood on your hands, if you smoke dope, or use drugs, imported illegally into the U.S? Do you really believe you are "clean" of all the violence in Mexico, Columbia, Afghanistan? If you are NOT a drug addict, don't you think you owe it to the lives being lost in those countries, to consider stopping such use? Because you ARE responsible for the deaths and violence in our neighbor to the South, when you continue using drugs.
And, President Obama should declare his own "war on drug awareness & responsibility" so that we can say to the Mexicans: we HAVE demanded accountability by our citizens.
Anything to reduce the amount of drug importation.
And, anyone engaged in "sex slavery," or "human importation," regardless of nationality >> several provinces in China provide huge #s of illegal workers ... will be imprisoned for a very long time. We cannot have slavery be a part of 21st Century America.
I think that if you read STRATFOR's latest, on the borderland issues ... what ARE borderlands? .. and the violence underway in Mexico, you will have to look at yourself in the mirror, and ask: what AM I doing to help straighten this out.
Let me be CLEAR: I WILL NEVER SUPPORT A MASS DEPORTATION EXERCISE. ANYONE WHO WANTS ALL ILLEGALS DEPORTED HASN'T CONSIDERED how the U.S. will look, for weeks, months, perhaps even years, as we "round up" perhaps as many as 12,000,000 PEOPLE, and ship them off to their home lands. Remember the Holocaust? Remember how Jews were rounded up, and shipped off in trains?
Have you ever considered how MANY BUSES (carrying capacity of 40), it would take, to ship off say, 8 million Mexican and Latin Americans to the Mexican Border????
No, we would never be able to live with ourselves if we mass deported 8-12 million men, women & children.
If folks are hard over on that idea, don't write back. I won't even talk with you.
That's inhumane.
But forcing applicants to pay back taxes, social security contributilons, get their presence biometrically recorded, on an ID card that would have to be carried while in immigrant pending citizen status ... that's not Amnesty, in my book.
No one -- no ONE -- could jump to the head of the line. They would have to get "in line." No special privileges.
Just do these things, and get in line.
