Bash the dashboard hard just above your left knee while cranking and see if it starts

More info is needed, has the car got spark? if so is the spark weak? Has it got Injector Pulse? Has it neither got Spark or Injector Pulse?

you might wanna see if there is fuel, take the air box out and spray aero start into the throttle body whilst cranking,

if aero start is unavailable grab anything containing hydrocarbons.

hairspray, tyreshine in a spraycan, etc etc, if it starts to fire it could be the fuel pump.

i had a fuel pump die on me before,

it was working when i left it there then a while later when i tryed to start it again the fuel pump was dead

calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'

Could also be the fuel pump relay, check fuses also.
