Introduction
America has the strongest
and most high tech military the world has ever seen. There is no current
military threat religious or otherwise in the entire world that is able to
match it. As a result, America faces a different kind of war which has
been waged at it's borders for many years now and it's called; "Massive
Illegal Immigration."
In LA on April 8,
2007, Carrying signs saying "Amnesty Now!" and "Love Thy Neighbor, Don't
Deport Him," about 15,000 people danced to Mexican ranchera music, chanted
"Si, se puede!" or "It can be done!"
In Denver, Colorado,
protesters waved Mexican flags and brandished signs saying: “Uncle Sam
Stole Our Land!” and: “If you think I’m illegal because I’m a Mexican,
learn the true history, because I’m in my homeland.”
“Today we march, tomorrow we
vote”
In Dallas, Texas, on April
9, 2006 half a million people marched, again waving Mexican flags with “Our
Lady of Guadalupe” (an immensely popular “apparition” of the “Virgin Mary”
in Mexico).
The Main Force
Behind Massive Illegal Immigration
“Prayer books and guides to
social and religious services should be provided along the way and at the
points of arrival. The migrants should be reminded of their role as
evangelizers".
U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops
There has been little
dispute about the vast majority of illegals being Roman Catholics coming
from Mexico and other Latin countries. There has been however,
various theories on the main force behind the massive illegal immigration
army which is constantly crossing the US border. Talk show hosts in
mainstream conservatism and liberal media outlets say its merely poverty that drives them
across. While others say illegals want to make money so
they can go back to their own country and retire the rest of their lives
while living a rich life. However, and this is not something you will hear
on Fox News or CNN, but the Vatican has for years been the main force
behind the invasion. Yes, the Vatican! Why? Like the U.S.
Conference of Catholic Bishops have declared the role of the illegals is
be "evangelizers". Not only that, but it's main focus is
to basically populate America
with more Catholics. A Roman Catholic priest, Paul Marx, back in
1987, was pretty clear and open about the Vatican's role in supporting and
encouraging illegal mass immigration of Latin Americans into the United
States he states:
“America is a dying nation. I tell the Mexicans when I am down in Mexico
to keep on having children, and then to take back what we took from them:
California, Texas, Arizona, and then to take the rest of the country [the
United States] as well.”
Also the
late pope, John Paul II stated...
“They [immigrants] often
bring with them a cultural and religious heritage which is rich in
Christian [read “Roman Catholic’] elements. The Church... is committed to
spare no effort in developing her own pastoral strategy among these
immigrant people, in order to help them settle in their new land and to
foster a welcoming attitude among the local population”
There was a
study released in June by the California Catholic Conference, and entitled
“Planning for the Future of the California Catholic Church. In that
study contained interesting stats. By 2025, Roman Catholics are expected
to comprise about 36% of California’s population, compared to about 30
percent now. In 2005, 11.1 million of California’s 36.6 million were Roman
Catholics. By 2025, it is expected that 16.7 million of California’s
expected 45.9 million people will be Roman Catholics. This is an increase
of 5.6 million Roman Catholics. Of these, 3.5 million will be the result
of new births, and 2.1 million will be new immigrants. “Church” membership
will grow by 129%.
The Latino
portion of the increased population of California in the period 1990-2005
was 79% of all new Californian residents. Between 2005 and 2025 it is
expected to amount to 81% of new residents.
By 2025, 4.3 million new Roman Catholic baptisms would have occurred, over
3.1 million children will receive their “first communion” in the Roman
Catholic institution, and the average parish will have expanded by over
1800 families.
“They [the immigrants]...
come with the values that are so needed in the United States today....
This is a special moment in the history of the Catholic Church and the
history of migration”.
Roman Catholic cardinal, Theodore
McCarrick, of Washington, D.C.
The Vatican Using
"Forgiveness" to promote illegal immigration
A local radio host in my
local area who is a devote Catholic and has conservative political
viewpoints informs the listening audience that he gets slightly annoyed by
visiting Priests or his local Priest in general when political issues are brought
up. He just doesn't like politics mixed in with preaching he said. Mainly
because he disagrees what the Priests are saying politically not
doctrinally. Cast in point, a visiting Priest in a loud voice told
Roman Catholics they must forgive illegal immigrants, sex abusers, and so
on. Since we are focusing in on massive illegal immigration, we will
leave the sex abuse scandals for another time. But in the eyes of
this Priest who was at odds with this devote Catholic radio talk show
host, forgiveness of illegal immigrants is allowing them to cross the US
border at will which is in line with the Vatican. And it's not only
him, but other Priests around the country are using "forgiveness" in the
wrong sense to promote massive illegal immigration.
Mexico and The
Vatican
Without
question, there is also a push for expansion of Mexico which suites the
Vatican just fine because Mexico has been mainly Roman Catholic for many
hundreds of years.
“This
is our land, and our continent, this is not property of the Europeans or
their descendants. Not one inch of this continent belongs to Europeans, no
matter what lies or distortions of ownership they may present.... Remember
that we have only temporarily (and illegally) been deprived of the rights
to our continent and our heritage. This occupation of our continent is not
a permanent condition.”
Olin Tezcatilpoca
It's not shocking to know that
almost 60 percent of Mexicans believe they should be able to cross into
the United States whenever they please. A woman on one of the most
popular programs on the Fox News cable network was asked by the host, "Do you believe in the United
States having the right to control it's own borders". She replied, "Back in
the 1600's people were free to travel anywhere in the United States".
The host looked puzzled for a moment and said with a stern voice, "I'm not
asking you what happened in the past before America became a country, I
mean now the present. I'm asking you again if you believe that the United
States has a right to control it's own border". She then finally
responded, "Yes of course, I believe the United States has that right
to control their own border". If you
look closely to what she said, she indeed does not believe in the United
States controlling it's own border. For how can one believe that a
country can control it's own border but yet believe that people have the
right to travel into another country as they please.
Elvira Arellano an
illegal immigrant activist who was on a mission to try and change what she
and others have called; "a broken immigration policy" in the United
States. She was originally caught using fraudulent credentials and
deported back to Mexico only to cross the borders again illegally.
In 2002, she went to a Methodist 'church' building in Chicago to seek a
safe haven in order to block attempts in sending her back to Mexico once
again. She tried having a kid and using the kid's health in order to
argue she has to stay in the US. Finally it was revealed she was
captured in August 2007, and sent back to Mexico while choosing to leave
her son behind even though she could have taken him with her. The
debate over massive illegal immigration began to take hold again
nationally as tv and radio talk shows were talking about Miss Arellano's
situation.
Before I conclude this
part on
Mexico and the Vatican, the issue of how the US treats illegal immigrants
with their US born kids came up after the Elvira Arellano situation...When it comes to illegal immigrants filtering into
Mexico from other countries, the Mexican government requires them to pay a
fee in order to cross their borders into the United States. Often times
the illegals who cross into Mexico are treated very badly and spit upon by Mexican authorities or
Mexican civilians which brings up the question, why isn't Miss Arellano
fighting for illegal immigrant rights in Mexico?
Other Forces Behind
Massive Illegal Immigration
While discussing the main
force behind the push for massive illegal immigration. We cannot
forget about the Communists and Socialists who are also a major force
behind illegal immigration. Socialists love
the concept and practice especially from third world countries because it
enhances their power as these illegal immigrates being poor they require
such needs from the government like free education, free health care, as
well as many more benefits which illegal immigrants can obtain.
The (Communist) Workers
World Party, and the International Socialist Organization, brought printed
placards and signs to the demonstration, and handed out copies of their
newspapers in Spanish and English. Socialist literature was displayed on
tables. The Workers World Party distributed placards with pictures of Che
Guevara. They also carried placards with the words: “Workers’ Struggles
Have No Borders!” True Communist propaganda: that nation-states are
irrelevant, that borders should come down.
Shaun Willcock

who runs Bible Based Ministries)
What about big business
or businesses in general? Many
would ask and argue over as the main force behind illegal
immigration...Indeed this is another force behind illegal immigration, no
doubt about it but it's not the main force. Many businesses who
hired illegals for cheap labor has seen their profits increased more than
with legal citizens. Many countries like China who have become
an industrial powerhouse have taken advantage of their cheap labor which have made it difficult for America companies to compete for
business. Thus, the illegals become more profitable for these
America companies to hire. In some cases profit doesn't matter at
all, we find some
rich people hiring illegals to be nannies, cooks, maids, and so on even
though they can afford legal citizens to do the job.
On September 11, 2001 is when the
world saw illegals for the first time attack the America in a massive way as
many innocent people were killed in the name of the Islamic religion. For years terrorists have been in
the United States either raising money, or training or even both.
Certainly terrorists promote illegal immigration as a way not only to
attack other countries with their distorted beliefs for world conquest for
their god, but also attack America too.
What about poverty? No one
can deny, it's one of the major reasons which motivates people to come to the
America. And who can blame them? After all, their country is
so poor with little opportunities to have any measure of success in life. Thus, people tend to want to cross the
borders to come to the US to obtain great wealth beyond their wildest dreams. Then
there is the criminal element. Criminals
who sell drugs for example, make huge profits from their criminal
actions by smuggling illegal drugs into the US by various means such as
underground tunnels, or various transportation.
And lastly, media bias
which is in step with the Vatican and all other forces or people who are
in favor of illegal immigration. The liberal media in the United
States and even some in other countries like the BBC have been on a
re-education campaign to attempt to try and sway public opinion. In
this media blitz, they use labels such as "undocumented immigrants"
which in a way is misleading because many do use "documents" but it's used
in a fraudulent manner or even stolen. However, there is some truth
to this label. It does mean the government has no document of that
person or persons who enter into the United States. So there is
no accurate count or estimate on how many are actually in the US from other
countries who came here illegally. More than likely there are more
illegals than what they are currently aware of.
Progress or Lack
Thereof on
Restricting Massive Illegal Immigration
Despite all the tough talk on
illegal immigration since the terrorist attacks of 9/11 in the United
States, it's been
reported that only 2 percent of those illegals captured are actually
prosecuted (see news
report click here).
The rest of the illegals captured are safely returned to Mexico. The
United States government has caved in to the influence of the Vatican
and other special interest groups. On June
26, 2007 in Hazleton, Pa. A Judge ruled in a 206 page document that the
"Illegal Immigration Relief Act" which punishes landlords and businesses
who rent or are employing illegal immigrants by their respected business
is not constitutional. This is not surprising since it's not first time a court has done
made such a ruling. Just another indication how the US government has
caved in to the Vatican and other special interest groups.
On October 12th 2007,
a new law signed by Gov. Arnold Schwarzenneger prevents cities
in his State from punishing landlords who rent to illegal immigrants. A
response to a vast number of communities nationwide have tried to curb
illegal immigration by proposing crackdowns on property owners who rent to
them or businesses that employ them, among other measures.
The Border Patrol still remains
under staffed and even with an increased and capable staff, it appears
their main job is to capture then send the illegals back without
prosecution. A group of civilians frustrated with the governments
lack of progress in securing the borders formed the "Minute Man"
organization. Their objective was to assist the border patrol by spotting
illegals and contacting them. They were pretty successful in
securing 20 miles of the border but remains under attack by the
liberal media. President Bush decided to send the National Guard down to the
US/Mexican borders to help assist with the problem of
massive illegal immigration. But again, the National Guard is most likely
going to be use to capture and then transfer the illegals back to Mexico
without being prosecuted.
Another negative sign of progress concerning illegal
immigration is the fence. The United States passed a law which was
signed by President Bush on October 26, 2006 to build a
fence to help keep illegals out of the country across a few states. Many months later we see only
17
miles of the fence put up out of 845 miles. There is currently a
complete stoppage of work in getting the fence built. Of course one
fence is not going to solve the whole illegal immigration issue, but the
lack of interest in getting the fence built under the new law is just
another sign that there is no real progress in securing
the US borders even after a major terrorist attack conducted by illegal
immigrants on 9/11.
Recently as of August 10, 2007, President Bush is
trying make a push for his plan to raise the fines on employers who hire illegal immigrants as part
of a broader plan said Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff. Also a quicker deployment of an under staff boarder
patrol. It's unknown as this time how much the fine will be for
employers who break the law to hire illegals or how many more boarder
patrol agents will be deployed more rapidly. This part of the plan has the
farming industry worried and suggested it would put them out of business.
About 75 percent of the farmer's workforce are illegals. More than
one million. I believe it's around 2-5 million illegals in the
farming workforce...Without no documentation it's hard to really tell how
many are in the country so most estimates in the media are on the low
side. The farming industry does have to worry more but if we look at
the history of illegal immigration, the enforcement of laws are weak at
best. The
rest of the President's plan wants most of the illegals who are working to stay while sending
back the head of household to their particular countries for about a year
before returning again, and have to pay a 5,000 dollar fine over ten
years.
In Conclusion
Before I conclude this news item
lets make one thing clear...There is basically nothing wrong with legal
immigration. America is a nation of immigrants who came here for a
better life, adapted into the society well, and so on...In fact, the
United States takes in more lawful immigrants than any other country in
the world! But what we are
seeing today on immigration is a emphasis on massive illegal immigration that
should be considered as a war waged against the United States for
religious, business, and political reasons.
Christians must pray for this
government for stronger security on the borders and the United States in general. For it truly needs God!
