The Trojan Horse of Immigration
Commentary by Frosty Wooldridge

"When will the fighting end?" Persaeus, niece of the king of Troy asked
Achilles as they sat in the tent. "It never ends!" the Greek warrior,
played by Adonis Brad Pitt replied, in the hit movie, Troy.
War wages throughout human history. Tyrants come and go. Great nations
rise and fall. As was said in the movie, soldiers die with no
remembrance.
Today, our soldiers die in Iraq for a country that does not want us in
its land. Once we leave, another Saddam will arise from the ashes and
subdue that country. Sunnis will slaughter Shiites who will slaughter
Kurds, and as Achilles said 3,200 years ago, "It never ends."
Another kind of invasion 'never ends' by accelerating into the United
States of America today. It's the Trojan Horse of immigration. While
our soldiers give their lives in order to free a nation that smells more
like the futility of Vietnam, we lose our freedom by the day via a
pernicious invasion of unending humanity.
Unrestricted illegal and unending legal immigration at 2.3 million
annually inundates America with a betrayal that will prove more horrific
than 9/11 and more devastating than the Vandals who overran Rome.
We possess the greatest army in the world, yet while our soldiers die
10,000 miles away, our borders buckle with enemy combatants more
deliberate than the Last Samurai. Our danger is more imminent than
Hector's death by Achilles. Our 'king' Bush stands at the gates of the
White House (Troy) oblivious that the Trojan Horse is unleashed 24 hours
a day, seven days a week. Our citizens are massacred by--losing their
jobs, schools, language and communities. Diseases we had vanquished in
First World America sicken us-16,000 new cases of tuberculosis, 7,000
cases of leprosy and thousands of cases of hepatitis.
Pareus, Hector's brother, when seeing the Trojan Horse, said, "Burn it
here on the beach." But their father, King of Troy, (played by Peter
O'Toole) listened to his counsel who said, "Bring it into the city as a
tribute to the gods." In present-day America, Karl Rove, Bush's
counsel, advises with similar ignorance.
Trojans pulled the wooden horse into the city. Greeks jumped out of its
bowels in the dead of night and opened the gates. More Greeks entered.
They lit fires that burned Troy. Karl Rove will prove the man who
invited the burning of America. He advises Bush that mass immigration is
good and Bush vacantly takes Rove's advice.
If you examine America today, immigration is our Trojan Horse. It's
killing our country as surely as the Greeks burned Troy. Immigration
will add 200 million people to this country by mid century. It will
prove our undoing if allowed further countenance in our country.
Just as Achilles brought more of his warriors into Troy--the more we
bring people from the Middle East, |
