During the course of a joint operation last week, Mexican Army and federal law enforcement officials discovered documents in Arabic and Urdu, as well as “plans” of Fort Bliss – the sprawling military installation that houses the US Army’s 1st Armored Division. Muslim prayer rugs were recovered with the documents during the operation.

Sounds like the same horse pucky story that's been debunked numerous times before. Very obscure organization is the only one reporting it.

I am surprised at the comments toward Judicial Watch as I see their work occasionally and it seems like they do good work. think it was Judicial Watch that broke the Benghazi and private email server story open with their FOIA requests.

They have broken numerous stories wide open with their FOIA requests. They play no favorites, having filed FOIA requests against both Republicans and Democrats. I have no idea why people would think their information is crap, but I seriously doubt that it is.

Yes, and their founder has instigated numerous frivolous (read insane) lawsuits over the years. You are right, it is non-partisan, but still overreaching. Are they wrong 100% of the time? No, but a broken watch is also right twice a day.

Same guy that sued Obama for knowingly allowing Ebola to enter the country to kill whites and Jews. He's a bit out there.

Looks like the Judicial Watch got scooped! :lol:

Something called The Inquisitr published an article similar to this back on Sept. 10, 2014.

That's a hilarious misrepresentation of what they do. Judicial Watch has broken the IRS Lerner email scandal, the Hillary Clinton email scandal, the Fast and Furious scandal, and that's just in the present administration. That "broken watch" seems to be working pretty well. You may not like what they do, you may even think it's silly, but they, more frequently than some care to admit, uncover coverups in Washington (on both sides of the aisle) that politicians prefer would stay covered up.

Note that I have no idea whether or not the story the OP posted is true or not, but to call Judicial Watch a broken watch is laughable.

I think this has been an ongoing issue for some time now.

I guess some would rather trust this source.
