"...al Qaeda is casing the U.S. border with Mexico to assess how to send terrorists and weapons into the U.S. "Four pounds of anthrax -- in a suitcase this big -- carried by a fighter through tunnels from Mexico into the U.S. are guaranteed to kill 330,000 Americans within a single hour if it is properly spread in population centers there..."

Terrorists and the Mexico border is real old stuff. Anthrax will not kill in hours...it may take up to a week for symptoms to even appear. Anthrax spreads fear.
Anon,
Anthrax may not be the means of delivery, but the method is a valid concern. Don't be too quick to dismiss. Whether it's anthrax, a dirty bomb, small arms, or terrorist bodies, it is a porous border. New tunnels are found regularly and countless bodies flowed across the border during good economic days here - that number may have slowed lately. But the threat is still viable.
ajh
It's a long border, and not well guarded. I would imagine anyone who wanted to smuggle something in, could do so.
My point was that the article indicated that 330K people would be be killed in hours. Smuggling along the border has been going on for hundreds of years...if we cannot stop tons of drugs, why do we believe we could stop a thimble full of (anthrax, small pox, plague etc.). In 2005, the "suitcase nukes" were supposedly crossing the border to a town near you.
I would not discount any warning, citizens must stay on their toes and know how to handle whatever may arise...whether it is anthrax, nukes, drug gangs, economic collapse, severe weather...prepping is a process of education as well as planning.
The Mexican border? Pfft. Anyone with any sense crosses the Canadian border. Now that's a border that's pretty poorly guarded in most places.
The fact is, anyone who has any ingenuity and determination can do whatever they want, to whoever they want, wherever they want. No number of Heimat Sicherheitsdienst or Grenztruppen on the border can do anything to prevent it. Neither could invading and occupying every Arab country in the world. Face it, the world is not a safe place. I'm more afraid of the people who are afraid of "the terrorists." They pose a greater threat to my life and liberty than any Arab.
I really discount this threat.I can't believe that any mexican group would assist any terrorist plot,as it would shut the border down,cut off the trade of drug's and illegal's.Why cut off you biggest customer? If anything,I believe mexico would do more to stop them than assist them.
