Afghan, Syrian, Pakistani Illegals Apprehended in West Texas near Border

DEL RIO, Texas — According to a source within Customs and Border Protection, migrants from Syria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India were arrested Wednesday. Border Patrol agents encountered them after crossing the Rio Grande as they tried to elude apprehension in dense brush.

The incidents began early Wednesday when agents arrested a group of seven. Agents tracked footprints away from the Rio Grande, ultimately finding the migrants on a private ranch.

Four identified themselves as citizens of Afghanistan, two from India, and one from Pakistan. As the day unfolded, five more significant interest migrants were apprehended, raising the number of migrants from significant interest countries to 12 in a single day—including four Syrians.

Two of the migrants, an Afghan and Pakistani, according to the source, were previously detained in Mexico by immigration authorities. They managed to escape a Mexican Institute of Migration (INM) detention facility in Guadalupe, Nuevo Leon, last week.

The source says encountering significant interest migrants from such a wide variety of countries in one day is not normal. The source is concerned that reduced patrols caused by a significantly higher flow of migrants means some significant interest aliens may be successfully avoiding capture.

Since October 31, the source says 20 additional significant interest migrants have been encountered in the Del Rio Sector alone. These arrests included 16 citizens of Eritrea, 3 Uzbek nationals, and 1 Iranian.

“The pictures are by Robert Clark, and were shot from the window of his studio in Brooklyn. Others shot the second plane hitting the tower, but I think there are elements in Clark’s photographs that make them special. To me the wider shots not only give context to the tragedy, but also portray the normalcy of the day in every respect except at the Towers. I generally prefer tighter shots, but in this case I think the overall context of Manhattan makes a stronger image. And, the fact that Clark shot the pictures from his studio indicates how the events of 9/11 literally hit home. I find these images very compellingÑin fact, whenever I see them they force me to study them in great detail.”

The designation of special interest migrant is related to the travel pattern and conditions within the home country, rather than specific threats. According to DHS, the designation of special interest migrant is different than the designation of an individual migrant known or suspected of terrorism. The terms “Special Interest Migrant” and “Known or Suspected Terrorist” (KST) are not interchangeable.

As reported by Breitbart, the Border Patrol is facing a monumental increase in migrant traffic that is straining the agency’s ability to perform even the most basic patrol functions. Since the start of the Fiscal Year on October 1, more than 50,000 migrants have escaped apprehension nationwide.

The arrests of the significant interest migrants came on the day the Secretary of Homeland Security issued an updated National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Bulletin. The bulletin addressed the current heightened threat environment across the United States as several holidays approach:… more here.

The below appeal for help in fighting illegal immigration in Georgia was sent out as a Dustin Inman Society alert today. Thank you, Inger.

The Dustin Inman Society is the only group working in Georgia against illegal immigration. We need your help.

Please consider these facts:

The Inman family, Dustin, Billy and Kathy are all gone now because an illegal alien was allowed into the U.S.A. and given a job, public benefits and a drivers license.
The powerful Georgia Chamber of Commerce is openly pushing (Republican sponsored HB 120) legislation under the Gold Dome to make Americans and legal immigrants from other states pay more (public) college tuition in Georgia than illegal aliens.
A coalition of leftist groups is pushing for legislation to allow foreigners to be law enforcement officers in Georgia.
In 2020 Gwinnett and Cobb sheriffs were elected on promises of not reporting illegal aliens in their jails to ICE.

According to DHS, Georgia is home to more illegal aliens than Arizona.

In 2018 Gov. Kemp ran on a promise of cracking down on “criminal illegals” and creating a registry of illegal aliens who have committed additional crimes – and ending sanctuary cities. He promised to present legislation to “track and deport“ dangerous illegals. He said nothing about enforcing Georgia’s E-Verify laws. Gov. Kemp has remained silent on the organized crime of illegal immigration in Georgia since the last election.
About 20,000 illegal aliens with deportation deferral already have Georgia drivers licenses. A Democrat state legislator and candidate for Secretary of State has a bill (HB 833) pending to give all illegal aliens in Georgia driving privileges. Including the thousands who are right now on their way to our state fresh from illegally crossing the border river in Texas.
The seemingly endless list of leftist groups that push against immigration enforcement are mostly funded by corporate Georgia (including Coca Cola and Georgia Power) and have large staffs dedicated to the anti-enforcement effort.

I am proud to work with my friend D.A. King to fight illegal immigration in Georgia and I write today to ask for your financial help if you are able to donate. D.A. has refinanced his home and spent his savings to lead the way since 2003.

Please help us. We are pro-enforcement.
