KABUL, Afghanistan -- During an unannounced New Year's Eve visit to Afghanistan, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano traveled to the country's mountainous border region near Pakistan to see first-hand her department's efforts in the war effort there.
"Seeing is worth a thousand words," Napolitano said after the tour, to which Fox News was granted exclusive access. "This all involves safety and security in this part of the world. And that is something that has direct connection as well to the United States."
She described her department's role in war-torn Afghanistan as a "complement" to the military operations there.
Her agency has about two dozen officials in Afghanistan, including Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, Customs and Border Protection officers, and Border Patrol agents. Many are training Afghan security forces to manage their country's borders.
Thanks to Janet, we now know that Homeland Security really is a para-military operation. Note the word "complement" to the military operations. What the heck is US Homeland Security doing in an active war zone? I've got a better idea, let's send over some IRS agents.

Why wouldn't you "heartless?" The IRS is the most efficient operation in the world....they seem to be able to find all Americans who owe money and send checks to illegals who can't be found by ICE....certainly they could find OBL.
If they can't find him...they could seize all of his caves.
