It's unfortunate our President can't say that.

Israel begins deporting migrants back to African countries - CNN.com


Quote:
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said at a Cabinet meeting Sunday "the first plane of illegal infiltrators (would) leave for South Sudan" that night, with another aircraft set to depart next week for Africa.

"Today, the government will begin the operation to repatriate illegal work infiltrators to their countries of origin," Netanyahu said, according to a cabinet communique released by Israel's foreign ministry. "We will do this is an orderly and dignified manner.

The issue of illegal African migrants has been of growing concern in the country in recent months. According to government records, more than 59,000 illegal African immigrants have entered the country in recent years through its southern border with Egypt.

Most of the migrants come from Eritrea, Sudan and South Sudan. Some of them have refugee status and hold temporary permits to remain in the country, but Israel does not recognize the status of most of them and says it is looking for ways to send them back to their home countries.

I'll just let this article do the talking:

Quote:
For all the grief President Obama ...one fact has emerged during his term so far. He's deported about 18 percent more illegal immigrants than former President George W. Bush did in his last two years in office. And he's on par to have given the boot to nearly 1.5 million immigrants by the time this term is done.

So yes he can.

First off Obama is counting those who have been turned back at the border and those who have volunarily deported. Even he admitted that the numbers are wrong. Second, he has just given over 1 million of them a back door amnesty during a recession with work permits. He has told HS not to deport any illegal aliens that haven't been "convicted" of a serious crime. Excuse me if I don't give him glowing marks.

Here are the ICE numbers:

http://www.ice.gov/doclib/about/offi...-removals1.pdf

Sorry to tell you but border catches count as any other. Looking at a complete year (2011) only 11.6% (46k/397k) were border catches.
