Better to get beheaded or blown up in a jihad attack than that, right?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJW Confirms: 4 ISIS Terrorists Arrested in Texas in Last 36 Hours,\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/blog\/2014\/10\/jw-confirms-4-isis-terrorists-arrested-texas-last-36-hours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Judicial Watch<\/a>, October 8, 2014:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Islamic terrorists have entered the United States through the Mexican border and Homeland Security sources tell Judicial Watch that four have been apprehended in the last 36 hours by federal authorities and the Texas Department of Public Safety in McAllen and Pharr.<\/p>\n<p>JW confirmed this after California Congressman Duncan Hunter, a former Marine Corp Major and member of the House Armed Services Committee, disclosed on <a class=\"extl\" href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2014\/10\/08\/congressman-at-least-10-isis-fighters-caught-trying-to-cross-into-us\/?%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">national television<\/a> that at least ten Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS)\u00a0fighters have been caught crossing the Mexican border in Texas. The veteran lawmaker got the astounding intel straight from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Homeland Security agency responsible for guarding the 1,933-mile southern border.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you really want to protect Americans from ISIS, you secure the southern border,\u201d Hunter proclaimed on a national cable news show this week. \u201cIt\u2019s that simple. ISIS doesn\u2019t have a navy, they don\u2019t have an air force, they don\u2019t have nuclear weapons. The only way that ISIS is going to harm Americans is by coming in through the southern border \u2013 which they already have.\u201d The three-term congressmen went on: \u201cThey aren\u2019t flying B-1 bombers, bombing American cities, but they are going to be bombing American cities coming across from Mexico.\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n<p>However, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/blog\/2014\/09\/military-experts-isis-el-paso-ft-bliss-danger-terrorist-attack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">military experts <\/a>told JW that the increase in security indicates that Ft. Bliss is a target. Military installations in the U.S. only make changes to security measures when there are clear and present threats, according to retired Army Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, former commander of the Army\u2019s elite Delta Force who also served four years as Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence. \u201cThat means they\u2019re getting a threat stream. Ft. Bliss had to have a clear and present threat,\u201d Boykin said. Following that news, federal law enforcement sources in El Paso revealed that U.S. Congressman <a href=\"http:\/\/www.judicialwatch.org\/blog\/2014\/09\/feds-el-paso-rep-orourke-called-ban-contact-jw\/%20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Beto O\u2019Rourke telephoned<\/a> the area offices of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and the U.S. Border Patrol (USBP) in an effort to identify\u2014and evidently intimidate\u2014sources that may have been used by JW to break the ISIS in Juarez story.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For those CO&#8217;s in Texas, Strap in and \u00a0keep your heads on a swivel, things are about to get ugly.
