Mexico Immigration Policy Adds to Fears of Islamic Terrorist Incursions
Certain Mexican organizations have been petitioning the government to allow 10,000 Syrian refugees into Mexico, but many are now questioning the wisdom of such a program. From the United States perspective, this represents a new threat due to Mexico’s inability or will to stop the massive flow of Mexican and Central and South American immigrants moving through the country into the U.S., as well as the widespread corruption that allows and even encourages such movement.
Currently, a Mexican non-for profit organization has been successful in the initial stages of bringing up to 30 Syrian college students to Mexico. Known as Project Habasha, the non-profit organization has been working in Mexico to host Syrian students who are looking to further higher education studies. The organization had been able to get funding and the necessary permit to host 30 students who were set to receive a full scholarship, insurance, and a monthly living stipend. It remains to be seen if the recent terror attacks will have an effect in Project Habasha’s efforts.
The lack of enforcement makes it almost impossible to know who the person is entering Mexico, a country that borders with the United States and could very well be used as a stepping stone for a terrorist cell looking to enter illegally.In addition to the immigration wave, Mexico is currently dealing with out of control cartel violence that has resulted in countless deaths, kidnappings, and forced disappearances as drug cartels continue to fight for control of lucrative territories. That drug war is further fueled by widespread corruption at all levels where anyone and anything can be bought. The widespread corruption is best exemplified in the case of Tamaulipas where two former governors are considered fugitives by the U.S. Department of Justice after they were tied to the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas during their terms in office.
It is almost inconceivable that President Obama would move forward with his dangerous and arrogant plan to endanger American citizens by bringing tens of thousands of refugees into U.S. towns and cities without absolute confidence that it is a humanitarian effort rather than a radical Islamic cell building effort. Add to that Obama’s immigration policy that has flooded the country with millions of illegal aliens and dismantled the structure of the immigration department and border patrol and the outrage should be palpable. The likelihood that Islamic jihadists will take advantage of Mexico’s lax controls and the U.S. abandonment of true border and immigration management means that new terrorist attacks in America are only a matter of time.
