ANALYSIS โ You know things are bad when the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Team Obama is worried about terrorists crossing the border under Joe Biden.
In the wake of the gruesome and deadly terror attacks against Israeli civilians by Hamas, Jeh Johnson told Fox News that he is concernedย that Hamas or other Iranian-backed terrorist groups could use, or already have used, the wide-open border to infiltrate terror cells into the U.S.
Asย notedย by 19fortyfive:
โThere are a lot of people entering our southern border right now,โ Johnson said. โThousands and thousands.ย It's a hemispheric move north bigger than anything we've ever seen. [emphasis added]ย And the challenge for [U.S. Customs and Border Protection, or CBP], for our DHS, theย FBI, is to try to keep up.โ
Johnson continued, โUnfortunately, as you know, the system is broken, it's horribly backlogged, and there's a whole lot of people entering this country who we cannot identify.โ
We know, Jeh. Please tell Biden!
Newsweekย reported:ย โThere has also been a rise in recent years in the number of people apprehended on the FBI's terrorist watchlist, with border patrol agents apprehending 151 migrants along the southern border in the fiscal year 2023 who match the FBI's screening system, according to the CBP.โ
It added: โIn fiscal year 2022, 98 people on the watchlist were apprehended after entering from Mexico.โ
If Hamas can get past Israel's highly fortified border with Gaza and deceive one of the world's most sophisticated intelligence services to conduct what was mostly a massive surprise suicide raid to kill massive numbers of civilians, what do you think Iranian-backed terrorists could do to us across our currently open border with Mexico?

One scenario involves them working hand in hand with powerful and deadly Mexican drug cartels that have free rein along the border and are behind much of the human and drug smuggling today.
As 19fortyfiveย reported:
Fox News reporter Griff Jenkinsย notedย on X Friday that the Border Patrol had apprehended two Lebanese nationals in Eagle Pass, Texas, an area of high illegal migrant flow. Hizballah is based in Lebanon.
Hizballah has aย documentedย relationship with the Mexican cartels that could easily be used to smuggle sleeper agents into the U.S. as it is used to smuggle drugs. Such agents likely would only be activated in the event of a war with Iran, because Hizballah is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps [IRGC].
Recall that in 2011, the IRGCย plottedย with Los Zetas cartel to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to the U.S. at Washington, D.C.'s upscale Cafรฉ Milano in Georgetown. (RELATED: Should The US Use Military Force Against Mexican Drug Cartels?)
Had that terror attack not been thwarted, it could have killed dozens of innocent civilians onย U.S. soil. This is a perfect example of how Iran or its terror proxies could infiltrate the United States in coordination with Mexican cartels.
Today, things could be far worse. They could use Biden's wide open border and the cartels' growing networks inside our country to inflict maximum damage.

The obuma/biden regime caused this mess and will be responsible with the demorats for the attacks.
Obama & Biden are clearly to blame for this continued disaster, and should be held accountable…severely!
So what else is new !!! FJB and all the anti American socialist/RINO’S/Benedick Aronald’s on capitol hill.
The American people will demand that the proper government heads roll if a terrorist act occurs because of the SW border insanity!!!!
Stock up on Ammo
DROP CHARGES ON TRUMP, refocus on border etc
Reassign agents to other areas
