Imminent Terrorist Attack Warning Update: Ft. Bliss Increases Security
judicialwatch.org ^ | UPDATED: 08/31/2014 at 4:45 PM ET

Posted on 09/06/2014 2:24:59 PM PDT by UMCRevMom@aol.com

Islamic terrorist groups are operating in the Mexican border city of Ciudad Juarez and planning to attack the United States with car bombs or other vehicle borne improvised explosive devices (VBIED). High-level federal law enforcement, intelligence and other sources have confirmed to Judicial Watch that a warning bulletin for an imminent terrorist attack on the border has been issued. Agents across a number of Homeland Security, Justice and Defense agencies have all been placed on alert and instructed to aggressively work all possible leads and sources concerning this imminent terrorist threat.

Specifically, the government sources reveal that the militant group Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria (ISIS) is confirmed to now be operating in Juarez, a famously crime-infested narcotics hotbed situated across from El Paso, Texas. Violent crimes are so rampant in Juarez that the U.S. State Department has issued a number of travel warnings for anyone planning to go there. The last one was issued just a few days ago.

Intelligence officials have picked up radio talk and chatter indicating that the terrorist groups are going to “carry out an attack on the border,” according to one JW source. “It’s coming very soon,” according to another high-level source, who clearly identified the groups planning the plots as “ISIS and Al Qaeda.” An attack is so imminent that the commanding general at Ft. Bliss, the U.S. Army post in El Paso, is being briefed, JW’s sources say. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) did not respond to multiple inquiries from Judicial Watch, both telephonic and in writing, about this information.

But two days after JW published this report Ft. Bliss implemented increased security measures. The statement that went out to the media attributes the move to several recent security assessments and the constant concern for the safety of military members, families, employees and civilians. However, El Paso’snewspaper credited JW’s Friday piece about ISIS terrorists planning an attack on U.S. soil from Juarez as a possible factor.

The disturbing inside intelligence comes on the heels of news reports revealing that U.S. intelligence has picked up increased chatter among Islamist terror networks approaching the 13th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. While these terrorists reportedly plan their attack just outside the U.S., President Obama admits that “we don’t have a strategy yet” to combat ISIS. “I don’t want to put the cart before the horse,” the commander-in-chief said this week during a White House press briefing. “I think what I’ve seen in some of the news reports suggest that folks are getting a little further ahead of what we’re at than what we currently are.”

The administration has also covered up, or at the very least downplayed, a serious epidemic of crime along the Mexican border even as heavily armed drug cartels have taken over portions of the region. Judicial Watch has reported that the U.S. Border Patrol actually ordered officers to avoid the most crime-infested stretches because they’re “too dangerous” and patrolling them could result in an “international incident” of cross border shooting. In the meantime, who could forget the famous words of Obama’s first Homeland Security Secretary, Janet Napolitano; the southern border is “as secure as it has ever been.”

These new revelations are bound to impact the current debate about the border crisis and immigration policy.

Dumb question maybe, but since we know they’re terrorists and where they are, and are planning to attack us, why are we not wiping them out now? Why wait?

Either you trust your intel or not. Is taking pre emptive action unpolitically correct or something?

I live in NYC and this is the first year i’m feeling uneasy about the upcoming 9/11. The really bad people have been there all along but now, thanks to Obumbler, they have all the people and all the means needed to do something awful.

I’ve been wondering the same thing. Our politicians who would give the okay are probably worried about hurting innocents. I don’t want to see innocents hurt or worse either but considering who we’re talking about it could be a ratio of at least 100-1 innocents there and innocents here who are hurt or worse.

And in spite of this, our evil leadership lets hundreds of thousands of illegals invade our southwestern border. This makes no sense unless it is a conspiracy to attack the U.S. again.

VBIED. Wow. This Texas workplace violence is going way too far. Holder’s Dept of Just Us should be down there investigating if white racism is causing it.

Intel is probably misdirection from ISIS. The only way to get the president’s attention is to blowup his favorite golf courses. Then it would e game on and ISIS would be smoldering ashes...

It’s not just the pre emptive action...
I’m wondering if they will even do anything after the fact...

But you’ll have to read them their MIRANDA rights first before you fire or the ACLU will sue you out of your home and bank account.

Because it's a law enforcement issue - not "terrorism".
There are no such things as terrorists - Obozo has them on the run/decimated them, didn't you get the memo?

personally I doubt this , but that said , I would suggest that every American man and woman , whom legally possess and concealed carry permit , should be carrying their firearms , and extra magazines , at this time . Everywhere you go , at all times and to all places . A sudden terrorist attack could be ended within the first few minutes . And if not , then you went down fighting , not like a terrified sheep at a slaughter house ( ie: Kenya) It’s coming . No one knows when . Be ready . Fire with fire .

and ps: DoD should immediately authorize ALL U.S. Armed Forces members to carry their weapons , along with mags , while on base , and in the communities they live in nearby .

We need to stop be governed by lawyers and start being led by warriors .

Indeed. They should hire a team of councilors. Certainly that’ll solve the problem.
