ISIS is operating a camp just a few miles from El Paso, Texas, according to Judicial Watch sources that include a Mexican Army field grade officer and a Mexican Federal Police Inspector.
The exact location where the terrorist group has established its base is around eight miles from the U.S. border in an area known as “Anapra” situated just west of Ciudad Juárez in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. Another ISIS cell to the west of Ciudad Juárez, in Puerto Palomas, targets the New Mexico towns of Columbus and Deming for easy access to the United States, the same knowledgeable sources confirm.
During the course of a joint operation last week, Mexican Army and federal law enforcement officials discovered documents in Arabic and Urdu, as well as “plans” of Fort Bliss – the sprawling military installation that houses the US Army’s 1st Armored Division. Muslim prayer rugs were recovered with the documents during the operation.
Law enforcement and intelligence sources report the area around Anapra is dominated by the Vicente Carrillo Fuentes Cartel (“Juárez Cartel”), La Línea (the enforcement arm of the cartel) and the Barrio Azteca (a gang originally formed in the jails of El Paso). Cartel control of the Anapra area make it an extremely dangerous and hostile operating environment for Mexican Army and Federal Police operations.
According to these same sources, “coyotes” engaged in human smuggling – and working for Juárez Cartel – help move ISIS terrorists through the desert and across the border between Santa Teresa and Sunland Park, New Mexico. To the east of El Paso and Ciudad Juárez, cartel-backed “coyotes” are also smuggling ISIS terrorists through the porous border between Acala and Fort Hancock, Texas. These specific areas were targeted for exploitation by ISIS because of their understaffed municipal and county police forces, and the relative safe-havens the areas provide for the unchecked large-scale drug smuggling that was already ongoing.
Mexican intelligence sources report that ISIS intends to exploit the railways and airport facilities in the vicinity of Santa Teresa, NM (a US port-of-entry). The sources also say that ISIS has “spotters” located in the East Potrillo Mountains of New Mexico (largely managed by the Bureau of Land Management) to assist with terrorist border crossing operations. ISIS is conducting reconnaissance of regional universities; the White Sands Missile Range; government facilities in Alamogordo, NM; Ft. Bliss; and the electrical power facilities near Anapra and Chaparral, NM.
Time for a new Leander McNelly. He was a legendary Texas Ranger Captain who famously led his small company of 12 Rangers across the Rio Grande to attack hundreds of rustlers who were nominally part of the Mexican army under Generals Juan Cortina and Juan Salinas.
McNelly asked for no quarter nor gave it. His recorded orders before one fight against the bandits was: “Don’t shoot to the left or the right. Shoot straight ahead. And don’t shoot till you’ve got your target good in your sights. Don’t walk up on a wounded man. Pay no attention to a white flag. That’s a mean trick bandits use on green-hands. Don’t touch a dead man, except to identify him.”
Ping!
ping!
In a sane world they would watch it for a while to gather intel than bomb it while the terrorists are at said camp.
I’m sure the State Dept can smuggle ISIS some weapons via ATF...
Obama and ISIS have probably worked out a deal with the Mexicans to give some territory to Mexico after the US is defeated in the war of 2017. Right now Obama (and ISIS) are still in the preparation stages. Once he's safely out of office things will start to happen, real fast.
The Mexican authorities feel that they have done the US a huge solid by merely mentioning that this was going on. As to their "doing" something...well, I guess taking payoffs from ISIS constitutes "doing" of a sort.

Aiding and abetting!
:-)
Good thing 0bama is solving the border crisis.
PFL
Remember it was a Mexican drug cartel that founded the black muslim street gang that controlled the community O organized
Columbus NM was invaded/raided by Pancho Villa. Pershing staged his forces there for the March into Mexico chasing Villa.
If true, a nation with a sane government would be putting together plans and military forces to move in and wipe these ISIS camps out to the man, with or without the cooperation of the Mexican government.
Send in the drones - and by that I don’t mean the ones running the PR sections of the State Department, the White Hut, or their lickspittle cornholees in the media.
I'm good with sending some airliners to pick them all up, but given the muzzies' demonstrated aversion to landing aircraft, I propose the pilots bail out and let the muzzies on board fend for themselves.
Maybe out over the Gulf...
Oh, this is really easy.
The smuggler gangs don’t want the heat from an outfit like ISIS. Ain’t no money in it.
Just contract the hit to them. That’s all they’re doing now anyway: sizing up the Arabs to see if they can do them. If they have some cash, great - they’ll end up being ransomed for it. If not....multi-bang bang as they say in Mexico.
We should just pay the traffickers to waste them now, don’t bother with any cross border crap.
