Once I spent two days days at the Coronado National Monument in the southern Huachuca Mountains on the Arizona/Mexico border. From the foothills you could see for miles into the lower flat lands in Mexico. It was utterly deserted and there was plenty of vegetation, with just a little barbed-wire fence at the border. It would have been quite easy to sneak into the U.S. there.

After they increased border security in California and Texas, a lot more illegal immigrants started coming through at places like that in Arizona. They've since beefed up the security in Arizona, but obviously a lot of people are still getting thru.

If terrorists came that way, they'd undoubtedly have someone prepositioned inside the U.S. to provide them with transportation and logistics. But the Chechen angle doesn't quite ring true. Why would Chechens be attacking the U.S.?
