Michelle reminds us that today is the 17th anniversary of the first World Trade Center bombing. Many of the immigration-tightening measures that had not been implemented on 9/11 had been mandated by Congress in response to the first attack. And, since we’re considering amnesty again, let’s not forget that one of the leaders of the plot was Mahmud “The Red” Abouhalima:

An illegal-alien Egyptian cab driver in New York, Mahmud the Red received amnesty (sorry, “earned legalization”) after falsely claiming to be a farm worker, because of the notorious amount of fraud in the amnesty program. Only because of the amnesty was he able to go to Afghanistan to receive his terrorist training and safely return to the U.S. The next amnesty will legalize two, three, many Abouhalimas.
