Iran-tied terror group Hezbollah may be colluding with drug cartels along the U.S.-Mexico border, a Republican congresswoman warned, calling on Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano to establish a special task force to figure out how to "clamp down" on this "national security" threat.

The Lebanon-based group has long-standing and documented ties to South America and its drug gangs, but reports have recently surfaced that it may be expanding its influence to Mexico and the U.S. border.

In her letter to Napolitano, Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., called on Homeland Security to find out and report more on the extent of the problem. She cited several troubling developments that would point to Hezbollah creeping closer to and inside the United States, with the help of Mexican drug gangs.

"It is vital we know what is happening on our border, especially as crime and violence continue to rise there and as terrorist plots and threats are increasing inside the U.S.," she wrote.

Myrick outlined a complex set of potential threats and evidence of their existence. She said "Iranian agents and members of Hezbollah" are thought to be learning Spanish in Hugo Chavez-run Venezuela before trying to obtain false documents to enter the United States as purported Mexicans. She said Hezbollah, known for its tunnel-digging skill, could be receiving drug money from cartel operations in exchange for help forging better tunnels across the U.S. border for trafficking.

She said gang members in prisons in the American southwest are starting to show up with tattoos in Farsi, implying a "Persian influence that can likely be traced back to Iran and its proxy army, Hezbollah."

I got reports on this a couple years ago. A TV station in the Rio Grand Valley reported the findings of prayer shaws and copies of the Koran in Texas just this side of the Rio Grande. I posted it on here and pretty much got flamed. Nobody wants to think this is possible. The info I got was that they are learning spanish and the spanish culture, even changing their names and crossing over with the mexicans. The drug cartels are helping them cross in one place and smuggling their dirty bomb materials across the border at other locations. MS 13 is supposedly working with them.

I believe they are already here and are waiting on a signal, then they will attempt to unleash their plan of attack.

Here is one of the stories I emailed myself from the station web site. I have tried to find it again but could not. I have this saved on my laptop. Check it out for yourselves.

It's interesting how people who don't live in these areas can pretend like this is all a bunch of hog wash, but if you go to these areas you find a different story.

MATAMOROS, MEXICO -- The chief officer of the American Consulate in the border city of Matamoros says he is concerned about the Central American Mara Salvatrucha gang helping al-Qaeda.



Consul John Naland made his remarks following the arrest Feb. 24 of an MS-13 gang member in Matamoros trying to smuggle three illegal aliens into the United States. The arrest comes on the heels of the American government acknowledging last week it was holding Ebner Anibal Rivera-Paz - the reputed head of the Honduran Mara Salvatrucha organization - after his arrest in Falfurrias, Texas on Feb. 10.



"The Maras are certainly a threat to the United States," Naland said. "The concern is that they might be just the kind of group which would take money to smuggle an honest-to-goodness terrorist into the United States.



"There has been some intelligence that al-Qaeda has talked with the Maras to help smuggle someone in to the U.S.," Naland added. "It's kind of the logical open door that could be used and the Maras are just ruthless enough to do it."



Gang experts in Matamoros say the Mara Salvatrucha are a "transit-gang" in the area, only interested in transporting drugs and people for profit.



Congressman Solomon Ortiz (D-Texas) says others in the American government have heard rumors about the al-Qaeda/MS-13 union, but confirmation has not been easy to pin down.



"Some people who are witnesses to these meetings will not confirm or deny because they are concerned not only for their lives but also the safety of their own country," Ortiz said.



Ortiz adds that MS-13 are practically everyhere in the United States, spreading like a cancer. The Salvatrucha gang is believed to have members in at least 16 states, including Alaska, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Illinois, Maryland, Michigan, Nevada, New York, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Virginia, and Utah.



Ortiz doesn't discount what the groups could be capable of doing. He says the recent capture of Rivera-Paz is a measure of how vicious the MS-13 gang can be. The gang leader is wanted in his native Honduras for the murders of 28 people two days before Christmas.



"If he was to do that to people he knows," Ortiz said. "Can you imagine what he's capable of doing here in the U.S. for the right amount of money paid to him?"

Come on in, we'll give you food stamps, welfare, unemployment, social services, and medical services. Heck you can even vote for our next president. Oh dont worry about the bill, the tax payers got your back. If anyone complains about your right to religious expression (ie exploding bombs) well their racists and we'll arrest them for hate speech.

But seriously there is no way that could happen. We have TSA check points at the airports, full body scanner, you have to take your shoes off, and the TSA even makes old people in wheelchairs get up and walk. We have cameras on street corners and a couple million dollar fence on 1/32th of the border. Come on people, do you really think a terrorists can bypass that security? Really, were a nation at war (x2), with open borders. The pres is sending 1200 guardsmen and woman to protect the border, perhaps this time they will have ammo for there weapons.

I've always said, if you wanted to invade the United States conventionally, you'd have to move in through Mexico or, maybe, Canada. The Canadians are geared to delay, disrupt and harass an enemy because they're our buddies but Mexico? They'd probably just let anyone roll through just to stick it to us. The Midwest is relatively flat and easy terrain, you could split the country in two in a week if you moved fast and hit hard.

These new revelations do not surprise me.
