#1 Gentle readers, I can't vouch for the Honduran situation, but I've spent time reviewing a videotape made by Latin Americans (Brazilians, to be specific) of the military base I was stationed at here in the good old USA. To the untrained it would probably look like a tourist video, but the subject's constant muttering while filming about how much the tape's buyer better appreciate this, how much risk he's taking, how he could go to jail for this--all make it quite clear he knew what he was doing. To anyone who's ever done targeting, it was clear how he was directed to sweep from certain point to certain point, identify certain features, and close in on others. His was a recon mission, and he wouldn't have been caught if he hadn't have gotten lost on a side road. In the end we couldn't hold him, but we kept his tape, the police kept his car, and INS sent him back to Brazil. We never found out who tasked him, by what means, for how much.

Anyone can be paid to perform a mission for the Islamogangsters, even lily white Americans. That the Islamogangsters can tap into existing South American networks for a lot of functions is no surprise. Worse, the South American angle is the least funded portion of the GWOT, because it's been tarred as the Drug War. IF the Islamonazis are seriously attempting to mount another major attack, they could do worse than to come from our southrn front.

#2 Publicize the bounty on Shukrijumah. If anything, gang members are capitalists at heart.
