Border Patrol: recent incursion wasn't Mexican military

From this:

Border Patrol agents now know who was really involved in a confrontation between Texas Law Enforcement and alleged drug smugglers in Sierra Blanca.

"All the evidence they have gathered from the investigation points to the individuals and the equipment that was involved was in fact not government of Mexico or military equipment," said National Chief Patrol Agent David Aguilar.

On January 22nd, Hudspeth County deputies say they were pursuing drug smugglers who crossed back into Mexico and were allegedly helped by men dressed as Mexican soldiers who deputies say crossed illegally into the U.S...

Is Aguilar correct? Is he telling the truth? Will we ever really know?

UPDATE: From this:

Two border sheriffs told KFOX they still believe the Mexican military is involved in a Hudspeth County incursion.

The sheriffs in El Paso and Hudspeth counties said they disagree with a recent finding by the Border Patrol.

Instead, they believe Mexican soldiers were indeed involved in the Jan. 22 Hudspeth County incursion...

This is good news. The next time the Border Patrol sees people in Mexican army uniforms north of the border, shoot them. When Vicente Fox complains, tell him, "You were right -- they were just drug smugglers in stolen uniforms."

Anybody above the rank of buck ass private is not a border patrolman. He is a highly paid "administrator" for the government, and if he wants to keep "administrating" he damn well better come to an acceptable government conclusion. A government administrator should be placed in the same catagory as the politians he is administrating for: None of them can be trusted in a shithouse with a muzzle on!

Hateful people. All I read is ignorant and uneducated comments. Violence is never the way, but I cannot expect these type of individuals to see this. They are narrow minded racist beings. They enjoy the suffering of others and walk around as if they are better than others because of their race, color or creed. I am ashamed to share my beautiful America with such low creatures.
