Presence in Mexico
Based on a study done by Georgetown University, the number of immigrants from Lebanon and Syria living in Mexico exceeds 200,000. Along with Iran, Syria is one of Hezbollahs strongest financial and political supporters, and Lebanon is its country of origin.
In July of this year, Mexican authorities arrested Jameel Nasr in Tijuana, Baja California. Nasr was alleged to be tasked with establishing the Hezbollah network in Mexico and throughout South America. In April of last year, the arrest of Jamal Yousef in New York City exposed a weapons cache of 100 M- 16 assault rifles, 100 AR-15 rifles, 2,500 hand grenades, C4 explosives and antitank munitions. According to Yousef, the weapons, which were being stored in Mexico, had been stolen from Iraq with the help of his cousin who was a member of Hezbollah.
With the arrest of Jameel Nasr and Jamal Yousef, obvious concerns have arisen concerning Hezbollahs presence in Mexico and possible ties to Mexican drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) operating along the U.S. Mexico border. The potential partnership bares alarming implications due to Hezbollahs long established capabilities, specifically their expertise in the making of vehicle borne improvised explosive devises (VBIEDs).
Recent incidents involving the use of VBIEDs in Mexico mark a significant change in tactics employed by DTOs and conjures images expected to be seen in the Middle East. While no connection has been made, Hezbollahs extensive use of VBIEDs raises strong suspicion concerning a possible relation to Mexicos DTOs.
