If only a small percentage of the stories Wayne Madsen publishes on his website are true we are in more trouble than even I have suspected. Take a look at this. Pretty wild. This is just his second story of the day. His first is just as far out. Scary. ------------------------- February 1, 2006 -- U.S.-Mexican tunnel worries senior U.S. intelligence officials. The recent tunnel discovered between Tijuana and Otay Mesa, California has some U.S. intelligence officials extremely concerned, according to informed U.S. intelligence sources. Senior U.S. intelligence officers are concerned that the sophisticated 1.4 mile tunnel, complete with ventilation, electrical, and water systems, as well as cement flooring, that connects two warehouses on each side of the border, could have been used to secretly transport nuclear devices or material into the United States. Argentine intelligence sources have previously reported that Al Qaeda smuggled nuclear devices into the United States using a drug route into the United States "rented" from the Juarez, Mexico-based drug cartel. The information was gleaned from agents that penetrated terrorist cells operating in the Puerto Igauzu, Argentina; Foz do Iguazu Brazil; and Ciudad del Este, Paraguay "Tri-Border" region, which is home to a number of Muslims. The DEA reported that the Mexico-U.S. tunnel may have been the work of one of Mexico's drug cartels. Previously, DEA has uncovered links between Al Qaeda and Latin American drug cartels, especially in Colombia and Venezuela. One of the Mexican Tijuana tunnel diggers has informed authorities that a similar tunnel exists between Mexico and Presidio, Texas. Intelligence insiders believe that the arrest in Los Angeles three weeks ago of a key member of the Russian mafia, an individual who was identified as a mover of money to the hijackers prior to 9-11, may have had something to do with the discovery of the tunnel. It is believed the Russian may have tipped off law enforcement about the tunnel as part of a deal. Argentine intelligence sources also reported that Al Qaeda rented from the Russian mafia a cargo ship smuggling route into the New York-New Jersey region. Argentine intelligence discovered that Al Qaeda had obtained at least one tactical nuclear device from Uzbekistan and enough radioactive material to manufacture "dirty" radiological bombs. Senior intelligence sources are concerned that the Department of Homeland Security and the Energy Department's Nuclear Emergency Search Teams (NESTs) have failed to conduct tests for radioactivity in the Mexico-California tunnel. Their fears have been heightened with the Super Bowl in Detroit on Sunday. tunnel.jpg (20243 bytes) U.S. intelligence officials concerned Mexico-U.S. tunnel has not been checked for radioactivity. waynemadsenreport.com
