Hezbollah Working with Cartels (Iran, Islamic jihad and drug trafficking)
FoxNews ^ | February 21, 2011 | Adam Housley

As if the threat of deadly drug cartels in Mexico wasn't enough, some of them are joining forces with Middle East terror groups.

"Hezbollah are absolute masters at identifying existing smuggling infrastructures," says former DEA Chief of Operations Mike Braun, adding that the group "is developing relations with those responsible for operating those smuggling operations and then forming close relations with them, so that they can move anything they have an interest into virtually anywhere in the world." That comment comes from former DEA Chief of Operations Mike Braun. He goes on to tell me that the Middle East terror group is "rubbing shoulders" with drug cartels around the globe. [...] This comes as Mexican authorities busted a senior Hezbollah operative who employed Mexicans nationals with family ties to Lebanon to set up the network, designed to target Israel and the West, according to multiple reports. The man's name is Jameel Nasr and he was arrested after a Mexican surveillance operation revealed that he traveled frequently to Lebanon to receive information and instructions from Hezbollah commanders and he also spent several months in Venezuela working with the terror group and Hugo Chavez's people.

Couple months back the Mexy cops arrested a Hezzy commander who’d been living for some reason in TIJUANA.

And, oh yeah!! Hez also provides logistical support for jungle construction of subs like THESE now:

It has sonar, diesel-electric, periscope mast, etc. Fully submergeable, ok? Not one of those low-slung boats.

I WONDER what Hezzbollah would be interested in smuggling into the USA, ya know....?

Good thin JANET is working on this..!

I mean...she has reduced the number of illegal aliens coming over the border EVERY NIGHT to an average of FIVE THOUSAND.

And on a heavy night it’s all the way down to TEN THOUSAND.

She’s also working on border enforcement in Yemen, and like 4 countries —in the Middle East.

After the domestic ignition of a nuclear device, Leon and that trollish thing we call a neoplitano will start to look at those who successfully completed Farsi to Spanish courses in the middle east last years..

You can end a lot of this Drug Cartel/Islamic Terrorist influence by ending NAFTA....make it harder for the Drug Cartels to trade

The Islamic Terrorists and Drug Cartels friends, the Free Trade Communists, will whine and scream....but America’s Security and Soverignty are much more important than getting cheap Communist Chinese crap shipped thru Mexico and Latin America

Free Traders = Islamic Terrorists + Mexican Drug Cartels

This must be wrong, because Bruno said the borders are safer than ever. /sarc

Okay, is it not obvious that illegal border crossings are not just merely to harvest heads of lettuce anymore? The liberals won’t ever admit it... We are facing an invasion to destroy us from within... truly an unholy alliance.
