Homeland Security’s Tragic 10th Anniversary: US Less Safe Than Before DHS – EXCLUSIVE Details Jihadists Know
Friday marked the tenth anniversary of the establishment of the aimless, bloated, dangerous Department of Homeland Security. On Friday, Barack Obama celebrated. And, today, Politico tells us about its DHS 10th anniversary breakfast event, starring three of the most incompetent people in the history of American national security: Janet Napolitano, Michael Chertoff a/k/a “Mr. Burns,” and Tom Ridge. But the creation of Homeland Security is a tragedy, not something to celebrate. In the wrong reaction to the 9/11 terrorist attacks, Joe Lieberman, with the eager help of his pal John McCain and George W. Bush, created a multi-billion dollar boondoggle bureaucracy of an agency, and Homeland Security has been and remains an ever-growing disastrous monster. And, yet, the primary agency charged with the investigation and stopping of terrorism is not even in the Department of Homeland Security. It’s the FBI.
As I’ve repeatedly noted on this site, to create Homeland Security, the U.S. government dismantled and destroyed two agencies, one of which had an excellent track record, and the other of which did okay stuff, immigration, which is now being done horrendously by Homeland Security (or, rather, hardly being done at all). The U.S. Customs Service, which had a terrific Office of Investigations–the Customs agents who investigated HAMAS and Hezbollah terrorism money-laundering and stopped a good deal of it through Operation Greenquest–was dismantled. The Customs agents and their colleagues in the U.S. Secret Service who carried on Greenquest lost their authority to investigate and stop anything having to do with Islamic terrorism. Bush’s then-Secretary of Homeland Security signed a memorandum of understanding giving the FBI the primary investigative authority on all terrorism cases. And did the FBI pick up where Customs and Secret Service agents left off? Nope. Operation Greenquest was ended. The Customs raids on Muslim halal poultry farms and other money-laundering organizations tied to Al-Qaeda were not pursued any further.
And in the ten years since, the FBI has stopped few Islamic terrorism money-laundering operations. The agency has done a lot of show raids for publicity, but the raided organizations, like the Detroit area’s LIFE for Relief and Development (Al-Qaeda and HAMAS – $20 million plus per year) and Al-Mabarat Charitable Organization (Hezbollah – $1 million plus per year) remain open for business and continue their non-stop one-way Islamic Western Union-style cash flow to overseas parties detrimental to America and Western interests.
And along with the U.S. Customs Service, the Immigration and Naturalization Services (INS) was disbanded. Yes, I know what you’re gonna say: that the INS screwed up in hiring a contractor which approved the visa renewal applications of some of the 9/11 hijackers after they all died in the 9/11 attacks. A major screw-up, no doubt. But an even bigger screw-up is to put people whose life experience is Customs investigations into the immigration enforcement biz and to shunt many of the good, experienced immigration enforcement guys off to the side. That’s what happened with the creation of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)–Homeland Security’s largest sub-agency–out of the former U.S. Customs Service and INS. And since the agency is now not doing much of any immigration enforcement at all, it’s now an aimless agency involved in investigating child porn and online child enticement, something done by other agencies and even your local sheriff’s department. Gee, I wonder why ICE has among the lowest morale levels of any government agency. Good agents have been leaving in droves, since it was created, and the exodus continues. The good agents who remain are persecuted and bullied by the feces that has, for the most part, risen to the top. The few good agents who are in any leadership positions can’t do much good because they are hamstrung by the idiotic government lawyers who continue to be appointed to run the agency.
And then there is Customs and Border Protection, where a good deal of the Customs and Immigration inspectors from the former US Customs Service and INS went. Again, we are less safe than before. The push in that agency hasn’t been Americans’ safety and keeping bad eggs out of the country. Remember, about half of the illegal aliens in our midst are here because they overstayed visas or came into the U.S. legally and never left. Customs and Border Protection agents are the first defense against that. Or used to be.
But CBP’s main objective is protecting and promoting minorities, women, and Muslim Arabs. That’s why, for example, at Detroit Metro Airport, the woman who was the third in command and the head of the airport during many shifts, Fadia Odeh, a Palestinian Muslim, made a rapid rise through CBP, even though she failed many of the tests required to become a CBP agent. And, at the time she joined the agency, her husband was an illegal alien Muslim and one of her immediate family members was and, to date, remains a major drug dealer between Chicago and Miami, inside sources say.
Although sources say she is now under investigation by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of the Inspector General, Ms. Odeh has been promoted to the Chief of Staff for Customs and Border Protection in Detroit, so she is now the third or fourth in command for CBP for the entire State of Michigan and has top secret security clearance for all sorts of intelligence information on Michigan’s international ports, bridges, and tunnels. Alhamdillullah [praise allah!]. Instead of relieving her of her duties, though, her boss, Islamo-pandering fraud Christopher Perry, District Field Officer for CBP, not only promoted her, but he assigned a CBP officer specifically to investigate who gave DebbieSchlussel.com a flier for an event on which Odeh spent CBP money and resources instructing agents to attend a seminar to learn how to be “more sensitive” to Arabs and Muslims. For the last half-year, one by one, only White male CBP officers with U.S. military experience were summoned to an interrogation at Detroit Metro Airport regarding whether or not the person being questioned was my source. Wow, this is how we thank them for their service to this country?
This same CBP in Detroit previously had an airport chief, Daphiney Caganap, who smuggled illegal drugs and illegal aliens into the U.S. after she was paid off. And she got probation. You’d think they would learn and get some decent people in there. But the decent people are the persecuted within this agency.
Keeping America’s borders and ports safe? Think again.
And extremist Muslims, as I’ve reported over the years, have been deliberately affirmative-actioned into top positions of influence and access to vital national security information at the Department of Homeland Security, whether it was under Ridge, Chertoff, or Napolitano.
Don’t forget the TSA. Think you’re more safe with the government running the show? Only if you’re a moron. We know that while White elderly chicks in wheelchairs and White male senior citizens with colostomy bags are felt up as if in a porno flick, weapons and explosive material regularly gets through security in test after test by the media and Homeland Security’s own investigators. At the Kwame Kilpatrick trial, FBI agents showed a video of an undercover agent going through TSA security screening at Detroit Metro airport over a hundred times, while concealing over $10,000 on his body, undetected by agents. He wasn’t stopped once. Nor is Mohammed Baba Ghannouche, who sails through security with his niqab-encrusted multiple wives, despite suspicious behavior and objects on his person. Last week, in Los Angeles, Robert Tencer, an Orthodox Jewish former TSA agent filed a complaint in federal court, noting that instead of letting him do his job, the TSA harassed him mercilessly for being Jewish and for having served in the IDF. Priorities.
And then there is the release of the illegal aliens of late. Since Michael Chertoff’s disastrous reign along with his daughter from “Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory,” ICE Princess Julie L. Myers, ICE agents have been ordered not to arrest illegal aliens and detain them, unless they are hardened criminals with a record of violent crimes. Under Chertoff and Myers, though, at least there was the pretense of workplace enforcement of immigration laws, even if the phony raids they did on meat packing plants ended up with illegal aliens rounded up and then released into freedom, or worse–replaced by legalized Muslim alien workers from Somalia. They refused to go after Walmart for insisting to janitorial contractors that they hire only illegals. And then they went after an Orthodox Jew and his kosher meat plant instead.
But, just when you think it can’t get worse, it’s far worse under Janet Napolitano a/k/a “The Lesbionic Woman” and her ICE chief, John Moron Morton, both of whom read this site and repeatedly tell their agents and personnel not to believe what’s on it. As I told you last year, ICE is now a den run by the gay mafia, where straight White male agents are persecuted and harassed, bullied and undermined. And, as you know, J-No immediately ended all workplace raids on illegal aliens, so as not to make them feel bad. Now, as we know, she’s released thousands of illegal aliens into the great American abyss. She and the Obama crowd claim that these are “low risk” aliens of no danger to America. But, as I noted last week, that’s a complete lie because for the last few years, ICE agents have only been allowed to arrest violent criminals with long rap sheets. The rest are allowed to go on their merry way and continue to live the illegal alien life in America, free as a jaybird. No surprise then that Napolitano says her priority at Homeland Security is illegal alien amnesty for 20 million illegal aliens in our midst and instant citizenship for 10-15 million others waiting in line legally. Yup, ‘cuz that’ll make America sooooo much safer and more secure.
Uh-huh, this is what ten years of Homeland Security looks like. And it ain’t pretty. It reminds me of the opposite of those old magazine ads for Virginia Slims cigarettes, which proclaimed, “You’ve come a long way, baby.” Nope, America, you’ve regressed a long way, baby.
Ten years of “Homeland Security” has done nothing but make America less secure. Oh, and wasted gazillions of your money. But, hey, Ridge, Chertoff, and, soon, J-No, can charge top dollar for speaking engagements like the one for Politico.
Cha-ching!
America . . . desperate but NOT serious. Homeland Security is Exhibit A of that.

This is a department whose secretary tells the public she’s unsure what her job is all about and she doesn’t know many illegal aliens are in the country or what they were detained for. Uh huh.
If that’s what Homeland Security is really doing, we’re better off without it. It doesn’t do a thing to keep the country safe – but it makes J-No and her fellow incompetents who run the department look good in the media.
Only in America!
