One expert from the University of Maryland Middle East, Shibley Telhami, said that this poll is revealing a new backlash directed against the USA because of people losing hope in President Obama. Around two-thirds of the Arabs find themselves greatly discouraged with the most recent actions in America.

The government in Arab right now seems to be more worried and concerned about the possible prospects of Iran being nuclear than most of the public appears to be at this time. If the USA turns around and possibly starts showing some concern about what is going on then the Arab government might change their minds but at this point in time, the Arab government does not see that happening.

President Barack Obama made a speed recently at the American University regarding the immigration security. However, Greg Abbott was truly unimpressed with what the president said. The attorney general said that it still needs full review apart from the reviews being undertaken at the legal immigration in United States. In his speed, the president said that their country has the responsibility and the right to control the borders. At the same time, they also have the right to set the laws for citizenship as well as residency in United States. The president also added that no matter what the reasons are and no matter how decent the immigrant is, as long as they are one of the 11 million people who broke the immigration-related laws, they should always be held accountable for their acts.

Greg Abbott said that the president still does not have a real idea how severe the security border issues are or probably Obama is trying to mislead is countrymen with his speech. Abbott said that the recent speech made by Barack Obama made it abundantly clear to the Americans that his administration would not commit in keeping the security of the American-Mexican border. This is despite the expected 1,200 National Guard troops that will secure the borders by the end of August.

Because of this, the advocacy groups and community workers gathered together for at least two days so they could talk about what went wrong. At the same time, civil rights campaigners participated as well. All of them gave their ideas in search for their new plan. The community centers in San Diego also gathered last weekend as well.

According to Andrea Guerrero, the American Civil Liberties Union policy director in San Diego, they had a wide array of summit last time. The series of sessions allowed them to come together and thought of ways on how they could think more plans and new strategies.

Thanks to the current anti-immigration law imposed strictly at the state of Arizona, these groups tried to become more strategizing so that they can debate better regarding the immigration policies.

There were about 45 delegates that came in San Diego. Some of these delegates came from California, New Mexico, Texas, and of course Arizona. The main agenda is to talk about how they could counter Barack Obama’s message on how the government could become stricter in implementing tighter security measures. This includes the 1,200 National Guards and about more than 1,000 border agents.

At this point, the delegates know for a fact that their objective, which is the all-embracing immigration reform, is not likely to be heard by the Congress this 2010 or the next. They even joked that Obama’s administration is more like George W. Bush’s and even more.

When the new law in Arizona started to make noise, the Hispanic groups in the state already tried to protest. They described the law as an encouragement to profiling people with races. However, those who are pro-immigration law say that the police are not imposing the law just because of their racial appearance or ethnicity. Law enforces are obliged to follow the law as it is.

One of the former agents of the federal immigration helped in recently in making a video for all the police officers in the state. Hipolito Acosta made this video so that the Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board will know how to handle this relatively new duty.

In an intereview, Hipolito Acosta said that dealing with the immigration law is just like imposing any other law in the state. They just have to know the different factors that they may encounter before carrying it out.

According to the law, before an official would stop a citizen and start asking about the status of the immigration, they must have a rational reason for suspicion first that the person really violated the immigration law.

Probably you have not heard about a small town in Nebraska called Fremont. They voted recently against the illegal immigrants who are getting jobs and properties in their town. According to the AP reports Fremont only have a population of 25,000. With the immigration law, it would require the officials of the town to do a check on the citizenship status of the person before they can rent any property in the town. The same goes for all the employers who are trying to hire foreigners. They must have a federal database where they could check for the status of these citizens.

Because of this vote, the state of Nebraska may now be another battleground fighting against the illegal immigrants and the laws that would embrace them as well. Now Arizona is no longer alone when it comes to letting their law enforcement officials stop those who are living in the country without complete papers.

With the, the American Civil Liberties Union already said that they would file a case against their branch in Nebraska. The group believes that the Fremont Law is not showing the real values of America which are equality and fairness.

There were some residents who gave their side about the issue. In an interview, Trevor McClurg told AP that he thinks it is not right for the illegal immigrants to be hired or to rent a house in their town since they [illegal immigrants] should not be in any part of United States in the first place.

However, if history will tell if this would push through, citizens like Trevor McClurg may have to wait for a couple more years. There were already trashed cases in the Federal Courts where landlords and business would get penalty whenever they hire illegal immigrants.

When she was in Ecuador, Hillary Clinton had an interview at a TV station where she said that there will be a lawsuit against the state of Governor Jan Brewer because of the immigration law. They will be delivering the upcoming lawsuit even though the Justice Department is still reviewing the said issue.

Meanwhile, on her interview with Greta Van Susteren of Fox News, Jan Brewer said that she was disappointed with what Clinton commented and what the administration would try to do. She was appalled that the announcement was made on a foreign channel without even first talking to the officials of Arizona regarding the matter. But the governor is fierce and she made it clear that they are not back away from the said issue. No matter what, they would still push the immigration laws, face any lawsuit, and be aggressive with whatever that is thrown at them. She assured that they would win. The Arizona governor also added that a big number of Americans agree with their immigration laws.

You can now see clips of the interview on various blogs wherein Hillary Clinton talked about how the current administration is handling the issues and debates about the laws. Clinton said that the president already gave his words and said that he himself is against the law. Barack Obama thinks that it is the federal government’s job to determine all the policies regarding the immigration. Apparently, the Justice Department will soon bring a lawsuit against it as well.

What most liberals and democrats do not know, is that Arizona currently provides 25% of our electricity. Yes the evil Conservative Arizona state helps her Liberal sister who is in dire need of electricity. What did we decide to do? we decided to stab them in the back without thinking of the consequences.

Gary Pierce is saying that he will gladly cut the electricity source to California if this silly boycott doesn’t stop. If California thinks they can hurt Arizona, they better reconsider and possibly have a change of heart if we want to have Air Conditioning come this summer.

I have been a resident of LA for a long time and not planning on leaving anytime soon. I also support Arizona implementing a federal law that for one has been in place for years. I have family in Arizona and have seen the problem first hand when visiting family down there. What we as Californians need to do is help our neighboring state and support them in their efforts instead of throwing stones. Arizona’s new law is not racists I don’t care how you look at it. A country without borders is really a “no man’s land” but we are Americans and this is America. We have laws and expect everyone to follow the simple rules. That includes everyone regardless of their race or skin color.

I will be the first Californian to say that I stand with Arizona and support Arizona! Show your support for Arizona bellow in the comment area.

Yesterday the City of Oakland passed the new boycott Arizona Bill and today West Hollywood jumped in by unanimous decision to boycott Arizona. City officials will not travel to Arizona and this may also lead to ceasing doing business with Arizona companies.

Here is another way how some weak politicians deal with stuff that they don’t even have a right to comment on let alone boycott. Arizona can do what they want and politicians in California should find better things to do like fix our economy and create more jobs for the unemployed?

Even if the entire United States joined the “Boycott Arizona” wagon, Arizona won’t be hurt and can possibly even be a self-sufficient state. People of Arizona are smart and can careless about two liberal cities boycotting Arizona and Arizona made products.

Why is asking for documentation to illegal’s so racist? Why is Arizona being crucified for signing a common sense bill that every state should have? Why are people portraying Arizona as a Racist state?

Because the world including the United States has lost the common understanding of “Common Sense” People have become like little bots. Whatever the mainstream pushes, they take in and act accordingly.

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed the law back in April 23rd. Soon after the law was signed, immigration groups and many liberals spoke out against the bill and called it racist and ridiculed Arizona for passing such a law. The law ultimately gives the police the power to arrest anyone who is suspected of being an illegal alien and if he/she is not able to provide documentation that they are in the Country legally.

Some have even gone on a hunger strike in UC Berkley (one of the most Liberal Universities in the U.S.). The truth of the matter is that other states should just stop acting childish and let the people of Arizona decide the fate of their State. If I live in California, I have no right to speak about the laws in Arizona.

People need to visit Arizona to see the problem with their own eyes to understand why such a bill would be passed in the first place. If the democrats are against this bill, why not the conservatives who believe in Borders, Language and Culture, start supporting Arizona made products and businesses?

I personally don’t consider myself to be a republican or a democrat but I fully support Arizona’s new bill and strongly believe that California should follow in their steps. Bottom line is that illegal aliens have no right to be in our country in the first place. They have broken a U.S. law and there should be consequences for breaking the law.

Mexican and other foreigners of non Mexican decent have for years entered the U.S. through the Arizona border illegally and this is one way Arizona will now start to implement some laws and possibly deport illegal immigrants who have broken our U.S. law and entered to Arizona illegally.

While I understand that Illegal immigrants are human just like us but no one should break the law. If you commit a crime, you better be ready to do the time… in this case, you will be jailed and possibly deported. Call me racist, but I think all the states should follow Arizona and pass a similar law so illegal immigration can be controlled. In this bad economy, last thing we need is more illegal’s to support by our taxes.

Stan Man (born in the middle east, U.S. citizen and an American) I personally dont look white and this law doesnt offend me or scare me in any way. I have nothing to worry about and am ready to carry my passport with me if a similar immigration law was passed in my great state.
