The current administration has been very open about its unwillingness to secure the American boarders. They not only have chose not to do anything to protect the boarders themselves but have taken it a step further and are suing the state of Arizona because they want to secure there section of the boarder. That’s why I find it very interesting that Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano is offering her support to help stop illegal aliens from crossing the boarder into Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is currently having a problem keeping out Iranian-backed Shi'ite insurgency from Yemen. Napolitano said, "It is a very rough border, very difficult to protect from illegal crossings." She met with Saudi leaders to discuss a range of security programs, including training, joint exercises, intelligence and arms sales. I guess protecting the sovereignty of Saudi Arabia is a higher priority then protecting our own boarders.
I’m not saying that we should or shouldn’t help Saudi Arabia. I just think that it’s ironic to say the least that this administration refuses to protect our country but will offer support to another country in protecting theirs. I cannot wait to go out to Arizona for the Arizona Open BJJ Tournament. Not only am I anxious to start competing again, but I want to do whatever I can to support Arizona against this onslaught of attacks from the left. Finally a state stands up and tries to help do something about all of the crime on the boarder and the Obama administration does everything in its power to stop them. I only hope that the courts side with Arizona and other states start passing similar legislation.
This kind of stuff really makes my blood boil. Thank goodness I am able to go to Crazy 88 to train tonight. There is no other stress reliever in the world then Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Anyway the judge hearing the case against the Arizona law said last week that there would likely not be a ruling on this law until after July 29, which is when the law will go into affect. I will we can only hope for the best…
