ISIS camp just a stone's throw from U.S. border
GOP USA ^ | 4/17/2015 | Chad Groening

A public-interest group is very concerned about what's going on at a terrorist camp just inside Mexico, not far from a major U.S. Army installation.

High-level sources in Mexico have confirmed to Judicial Watch that ISIS is operating a camp about eight miles from El Paso, Texas, which sits on the U.S.-Mexico border. The camp is located in an area (known as "Anapra") dominated by a drug cartel, making it an extremely dangerous and hostile operating environment for the Mexican Army and Federal Police operations.

Tom Fitton, president of Judicial Watch, tells OneNewsNow this ISIS cell represents a clear threat to the United States.

"We're very much concerned obviously about what's going on," he shares. "Our understanding also is the 'coyotes' – those engaged in human smuggling – have helped move ISIS terrorists through the desert and across the border in New Mexico."

According to Judicial Watch, Mexican officials discovered "plans" of Fort Bliss, the sprawling military post near El Paso that houses the U.S. Army's 1st Armored Division.

"Fort Bliss has shown to be not only an attractive target but a resource for the terrorists," Fitton adds. "We understand that material from Fort Bliss has been smuggled out for potential terrorist operations."

The White House, says the Judicial Watch leader, has done a good job of keeping this story under wraps.

"A national security threat on the border is something that the Washington media doesn't like to talk about because it makes many of the politicians that they try to cater to uncomfortable," he laments. "So asking the Obama administration about this, you might as well be asking Hillary Clinton about the Benghazi attack: they're never going to tell you the truth."

According to the Judicial Watch report, ISIS is conducting reconnaissance in the El Paso/southern New Mexico area, including regional universities, White Sand Missile Range (an Army installation), government facilities in Alamogordo, New Mexico (approx. 90 miles north of El Paso), and electrical power facilities.

I trust Judicial Watch but wouldn’t some republicans be all over this? Like Cruz? Even Mccain is always up for a good attack, just not always on the right guys :)

There’s an Isis contingent in the White Hut Annex busily doing the bidding of Obama.

I'm pretty sure it's the other way around.

If we had a REAL president, a company of marines would go in and take them out. Then say, “Oh, sorry Mexico”.

Tactical nuke - not strategic ...

The blast radius of a small tactical nuke is several city blocks ...

W70 variable yield warhead ranges between 1 and 100 kilotons of TNT.

The lowest selectable yield of a tactical B61 (Mod 3 and Mod 4) is 0.3 kilotons. http://nuclearweaponarchive.org/Usa/Weapons/B61.html

But, here - choose your weapon, pick your target location and check the effects for yourself (have a blast, LOL)

Well we know the Mexicans won’t do anything about it. With all this Jade Helm thing going down in the next couple of months you would think they could take a few hours out of their martial law drill to take out an ISIS camp.

I believe that there are a few ISIS camps in the USA also. Under the supervision of the occupier of the White House and the DOJ.

If we had an actual President, there would be no such organization as ISIS. ISIS is a creation of Obama. But he and they are what the people said, via their votes, they wanted. But what makes me sick is the people who gave their lives upon the field of battle for the preservation of the United States of America. Only to have a bunch of bastards who refer to themselves as Americans turn it over to an America hating son of a bitch like Obama.

You've got that right and Bambam ain't no golfer, he's at best a duffer among other things.

RE: ISIS camp just a stone’s throw from U.S. border

Should we care about Mexico’s opinion if we just droned them?

Seems abundantly clear something is going on just south of the Rio Grande, and it likely involves ISIS. A new commanding general took charge at Fort Bliss late last summer and put an immediate emphasis on installation security:

http://formerspook.blogspot.com/2014/09/at-border.html

As noted in the blog post MG Twitty announced his security plans about the same time the first reports of ISIS infiltration began to surface. And he was concerned enough to bring outside experts onto the post for an assessment of base security measures. Billions were spent at Bliss over the past decade to accommodate thousands of new troops and their families, but virtually nothing was spent on new entry control points and similar security measures. But, when MG Twitty arrives—amid reports of local ISIS activity—security becomes the top priority.

Hardly a coincidence.

After 911, Osama bin Laden explained that the reason al Qaeda didn’t hesitate to send planes crashing into New York’s World Trade Center was because America was a ‘’weak horse’’ — which it had been during Bill Clinton’s recently ended eight years of malfeasance in the White House.

Yet even so, al Qaeda had enough respect for the U.S. at that time to keep its 9/11 plans secret.

Today under Obama, ISIS feels no need to keep its whereabouts near our border away from public view, such contempt does it have for the current weak pussycat on Pennsylvania Avenue. When, not if, ISIS will attack us is the question.
