The recent apprehension of an Algerian man as he crossed the US-Canada border in Washington state with almost 120 pounds of explosives, including some nitroglycerin, an extremely powerful substance, along with some other incidents, has led to increasing concerns that radical groups may use the millennium as a backdrop for terrorist activities within the US. The matter has been compounded by another apprehension of a Canadian woman and Algerian man with terror group connections at the US-Canadian border in Vermont. The incidents have led in turn to increased monitoring and patrolling of the borders. People crossing the border over the next few weeks should expect longer than usual delays as officials conduct more in depth questioning of more people. Noncitizens should be prepared for increased scrutiny, and to avoid any unnecessary situations, should remember to bring proper identification and documentation of their right to enter the US.
