Border Patrol agents arrested 11 Iranians Monday after they sneaked across the border into Arizona.
The five women and six men were traveling as a group, and were nabbed on a bridge near San Luis, a border crossing point. Agents said the group had just crossed the border.
Iran is a “special interest” country for border apprehensions because of its nexus to terrorism, though there was no mention of those concerns in relation to this group.

Wasn’t something on this posted yesterday? I didn’t directly read much yesterday so can’t be sure. I’d think it’d be all over by now.

Or dreamers. Either way, it’s clear they’re willing to do the jobs Americans won’t do.

Not much to go on except a hunch, but I’d suspect they were trying to escape from the Ayatollahs more so than terrorists, but of course, they have to be checked as thoroughly as possible.

biden bears full responsibility for what these operatives of the iran government do to this country. He doesn’t care - he’s just paying them back for helping him get elected.

Gotta watch out for them. They are coming in droves....

Still, the 11 arrests pushed the number of Iranians nabbed in
the Yuma sector since Oct. 1 to 14. In fiscal year 2020, the
Yuma sector arrested eight, while the rest of the border
accounted for just 14.

I have seen nothing that says they are operatives of the Iranian government. They could be fleeing real repression. But, if they can make it across the border, real terrorists can make it across too.
