Debbie Schlussel: Investigative Journalist: Afghan Muslims Bought Real Mexican Passports in MUMBAI
Todd Bensman, a Texas-based investigative journalist and TV reporter who now works for the San Antonio Express-News, has long been known to federal agents as THE expert on non-Mexican nationals and how they come into America, South of the border. His excellent work has disproven the claim that few dangerous Muslims come over here through Mexico. He's reported ad nauseam on suspected and known terrorists here on fake and real passports who've slipped in. A lot of the stuff you see or hear on cable news or in national newspapers originated with Todd's scoops.
Yesterday, Todd sent me his excellent work from March, documenting how Afghans bought real Mexican passports in Mumbai. It's important reading, especially given the Pakistani Muslim terrorist attacks perpetrated there, last week.
Todd wrote me:
You have to wonder what Mumbai has sent US. My story, which didn't get picked up and was completely ignored, shows a route from there to Mexico and then the U.S., where real Mexican passports were on sale to anyone in South Asia!
