Two ‘Special Interest Aliens’ From Lebanon Apprehended At Southern Border

Two Lebanese individuals identified as “special interest aliens” were apprehended at the U.S. southern border on Thursday and are currently undergoing background vetting, reports indicate.

Customs and Border Protection sources “confirm that 2 men in their early to mid 20s from Lebanon were apprehended in Eagle Pass, TX,” an X post from Fox News National Correspondent Griff Jenkins reads. “They are considered ‘special interest aliens’ and are currently undergoing extensive background vetting.”

The apprehension comes amid increased attention to the national security threat posed by America’s border crisis in the wake of Hamas’ devastating terrorist attacks on Israel, which claimed the lives of more than 1,300 people, including women and children.

American cities have taken increased security measures in preparation for protests that fall on the same day as a “day of Jihad” announced by a former Hamas chief.

But the fighting age Lebanese males are just two of the thousands of “special interest aliens” that have entered the United States since President Biden took office in 2021, leaked data from Customs and Border Patrol reveal. While agents encountered 659 Iranian nationals and 538 from Syria between October 2021 and October 2023, an astonishing 3,153 nationals from Egypt and 6,386 from Afghanistan, marking a 1,000% increase in illegal immigration from the country.

How convenient that Biden stops two suspicious Lebanese and immediately reports the apprehension to the media.

Well, I guess this shows how good Biden is about stopping suspicious men and we can now rest assured that this level of scrutiny has been in place for years.

It’s a relief to know that they are getting ‘extensive background vetting’. No doubt they’ll pass and be let in. And it’s also a relief to know that no other ‘special-interest aliens’ have managed to enter the U.S. in the past 2 1/2 years. These two are very likely the very first.

The timing for those two was bad. They should have crossed the border before all that stuff in the mid-east started up, thus forcing Sleepy Joe's crew to "do something". Had they come a week or so ago, they could have happily crossed in with the other 100,000 Jihadis.

......we Americans (and Europeans) will soon experience a comeuppance, a day of reckoning.......
......after decades of sap-happy lib/Dems importing 100’s of thousands of Muslim refugees onto our soil
.....from filthy places like Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bosnia, Iraq, Sudan, Syria, Somalia, Uzbekistan, Turkey, Yemen......

More than 3 million have jumped the border into the U.S. from these snakepits,
and other hostile, jihadist-harboring, terror-infested America-hating nations
over the past 40 years.

Biden doesn’t care if the world burns around him. His biggest fear are the terrorists who attack on his term that came in illegally. WOW. 2 terrorists captures. Meanwhile tens of millions have walked right in. And the spokes-goblin says these captures prove how successful the Biden regime is at securing the border.

Concerned about two special interests dudes? You can bet Biden’s open door has brought in hundreds possibly thousands of potential terrorists, readying to reek havoc on us.

We know for sure that this is another Feral Government effort at thought control because they actually characterized them
using the forbidden word "ALIENS instead of the Woke approved "Migrants" or "Asylum Seekers" !

Set them several miles out on the Pacific - let them swim to their next destination.

Is this one of those scenarios that have CBP direct quite a bit of attention to these two, while dozens more, special interest aliens, walk right by?

“...What about the other 100,000?...”

They along with many others were turned loose into the USA, whereabouts unknown.

Yesterday’s two will soon join them.

We no doubt have an army of terrorists forming within the US and their commander is Obama. They join his 50,000 “shadow administration” he claimed to have in place as he left the White House. Remember!!
