ALERT: Feds Warn of Southern Border Terrorist Attack via Ciudad Juarez, Mexico
2014-08-30
Islamic terrorist groups are operating in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez and planning to attack the United States with car bombs or other vehicle born improvised explosive devices (VBIED). High-level federal law enforcement, intelligence and other sources have confirmed to Judicial Watch that a warning bulletin for an imminent terrorist attack on the border has been issued. Agents across a number of Homeland Security, Justice and Defense agencies have all been placed on alert and instructed to aggressively work all possible leads and sources concerning this imminent terrorist threat.

Specifically, Judicial Watch sources reveal that the militant group Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) is confirmed to now be operating in Juarez, a famously crime-infested narcotics hotbed situated across from El Paso, Texas. Violent crimes are so rampant in Juarez that the U.S. State Department has issued a number of travel warnings for anyone planning to go there. The last one was issued just a few days ago.

Intelligence officials have picked up radio talk and chatter indicating that the terrorist groups are going to "carry out an attack on the border," according to one JW source. "It's coming very soon," according to this high-level source, who clearly identified the groups planning the plots as "ISIS and Al Qaeda." An attack is so imminent that the commanding general at Ft. Bliss, the U.S. Army post in El Paso, is being briefed, another source confirms. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) did not respond to multiple inquiries from Judicial Watch, both telephonic and in writing, about this information.

The disturbing inside intelligence comes on the heels of news reports revealing that U.S. intelligence has picked up increased chatter among Islamist terror networks approaching the 13th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. While these terrorists reportedly plan their attack just outside the U.S., President Obama admits that "we don't have a strategy yet" to combat ISIS. "I don't want to put the cart before the horse," the commander-in-chief said this week during a White House press briefing. "I think what I've seen in some of the news reports suggest that folks are getting a little further ahead of what we're at than what we currently are."

The administration has also covered up, or at the very least downplayed, a serious epidemic of crime along the Mexican border even as heavily armed drug cartels have taken over portions of the region. Judicial Watch has reported that the U.S. Border Patrol actually ordered officers to avoid the most crime-infested stretches because they're "too dangerous" and patrolling them could result in an "international incident" of cross border shooting. In the meantime, who could forget the famous words of Obama's first Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano; the southern border is "as secure as it has ever been."

These new revelations are bound to impact the current debate about the border crisis and immigration policy.

#11  I predict virtually nothing further will be done to secure the southern border, short of several thousand dead US civilians. And maybe not even then.

#10  The FBI’s most recent national threat assessment for domestic terrorism makes no reference to Islamist terror threats, despite last year’s Boston Marathon bombing and the 2009 Fort Hood shooting—both carried out by radical Muslim Americans.” HT Insty

This seems to contradict the idea that the "Feds" warned of this. The FBI not even mentioning Muslims as a threat seems right in line with this administration's leanings.

Whose side is our regime on?

#9  ....way into the pockets and coffers of our politicians in some money laundering arrangement. Maybe this is just my paranoid musings.

Money? No, my New Jersey constituents provide me with plenty of money. I have other needs....

#8  Maybe I'm paranoid but it occurred to me that little to nothing is being done by our current ruling politicians about controlling our southern border. The cartels have a tremendous amount of money. I thought what if a lot of cartel/Mideastern money finds its way into the pockets and coffers of our politicians in some money laundering arrangement. Maybe this is just my paranoid musings.

#7  There was a story over at Drudge. The opening paragraphs were as follows:

King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has warned that the West will be the next target of the jihadists sweeping through Syria and Iraq, unless there is "rapid" action.

"If we ignore them, I am sure they will reach Europe in a month and America in another month," he said in remarks quoted on Saturday by Asharq al-Awsat daily and Saudi-backed Al-Arabiya television station.


Nothing is as seen with these guys. They are very duplicitous. Scare tactics at work? The King is probably afraid, ISIS will turn their collective sights on SA and upset the royal's cozy arrangement there. He is trying to get Europe and the U.S. to clean up the ISIS mess for him. If a few thousand Karfirs get killed in the process, it no skin off his arse. The House of Saud doesn't like to get their hands dirty.

#5  (snark) An AlQuida team was found doubled over in the street after eating the carne asada at Romy's in Cuidad. When questioned, one terrorist said "Just let me die." (snark off)

#4  Setting the stage for a terrorist incident which will herald the arrival of Martial Law and the establishment of FEMA regional governance. The people will demand Washington and the regime do something, and they will.

#3  In the history of the world most would consider the illegal immigration of 10 million as an attack. The people hired to protect the border decided to be the welcoming committee. We already lost the battle.

#2  Update: Fox reports on a Texas Department of Public Safety bulletin on the threat.

“A review of ISIS social media messaging during the week ending August 26 shows that militants are expressing an increased interest in the notion that they could clandestinely infiltrate the southwest border of US, for terror attack,” warns the Texas Department of Public Safety “situational awareness” bulletin, obtained by FoxNews.com.

#1  If Obumble pushes amnesty... and then we get hit in the south with a terrorist attack it is over for him.

Little wonder all the amnesty chatter on the MSM outlets suddenly dried up over the past 2 days.
