The inside story of our modern-day Minutemen and their heroic battle to secure America's borders
Minutemen: The Battle to Secure America's Borders
by Jim Gilchrist; Jerome Corsi
President Bush has called them vigilantes, but millions of Americans call them heroes -- and they're determined to make sure that what happened on September 11, 2001 never happens again. They're the Minutemen, the new all-volunteer group dedicated to reasserting control over our borders. What does border control have to do with 9/11? Everything: on 9/11, over 3,000 Americans were brutally slaughtered because immigration laws had not been enforced. America is at war today abroad because our borders have been rendered irrelevant at home.
(continued from above)
In 2004, the decorated Marine veteran and patriot Jim Gilchrist determined to do something about it. Armed with only binoculars and cell phones, Gilchrist and his fellow patriots proved that America's porous borders could be successfully guarded, and in the process set off a national debate on an issue the Federal government had long ignored. In Minutemen: The Battle to Secure America's Borders, Gilchrist teams up with bestselling author Jerome Corsi (coauthor of Unfit for Command, the book that derailed John Kerry's presidential campaign) to provide a shocking firsthand account of the fierce battle that is raging today at America's southern border -- and the plucky team of patriots that is fighting for our country there.
Minutemen describes in vivid detail how our nation's southern border has disintegrated into a horrifying, anything-goes Wild West of human trafficking, drug smuggling, and violent gangs. But Gilchrest and Corsi also explain here why out-of-control illegal immigration poses a threat not only to the border regions, but also to our nation as a whole. They detail why illegal immigration amounts to nothing less than a Trojan Horse invasion of our country, and a springboard for Mexico's ambitious plan to reconquer the American southwest. They clarify why illegal immigration is now creating a massive crisis in social services, saddling the American middle class with an immense, onerous tax burden, giving street gangs and drug cartels free rein in American cities, and even providing a handy escape route for killers fleeing justice in Mexico. Even jihad terrorists have taken notice of our porous borders, and are taking full advantage of them.
They elucidate the role that NAFTA and our need for oil have played in creating this crisis -- and above all, the show how an awareness of all this led Gilchrest to found the Minutemen. Like their Revolutionary War predecessors who defended America against a hostile foreign power, today's Minutemen have risen up to answer their nation's call against another invasion. Minutemen is their story. And best of all, Gilchrest and Corsi show what we can and must do now in order to reclaim America.
With anti-American protestors taking to the streets of all our large cities to demand citizenship for all illegals, and with the President of the United States himself endorsing open borders, it has never been more critical for American citizens to understand the massive social, economic and security problems caused by illegal immigration. Minutemen makes that possible with a refreshing combination of facts and straight talk. This book is an urgent call to arms that no American can afford to ignore.
Gilchrest and Corsi reveal:
- Why the President's non-enforcement of our immigration laws is a disgrace to the sacrifices made by countless Americans to preserve American freedom
- American taxpayers: how they're forced to pay the staggering economic and cultural price tag of illegal immigration -- and why our government wants to keep the true costs hidden from the public
- How the government of Mexico actually encourages the mass emigration of millions of impoverished peasants -- and will stop at nothing to keep the border open
- The huge number of illegal border crossings: why they are not discrete, random events, but actions of a carefully controlled mass movement
- Why drug lords are so intent on controlling who gets across the border and how
- Why some liberal Catholic Church leaders are speaking out in favor of amnesty for illegal immigrants
- Why so many "intellectuals" believe that Americans (and the world) would be better off if globalization replaced Washington with a multilateral authority -- and how the attack on our borders fits into that view
- How the Minuteman Project's opponents tried to intimidate it with legal opposition and media attacks
- The not-so-secret plan to submerge American sovereignty within a large North American economic and political union
- Plus: a pledge for politicians to help guide and fortify them to make the right choices about illegal immigration
