Mexico helping unvetted African migrants to U.S. border, many from Al-Shabaab jihadi hotbed

Sep 12, 2016 6:17 pm By Christine Douglass-Williams

Hundreds of African asylum seekers have flooded Mexican border cities with the U.S. in an effort to get to California and Texas to obtain U.S. asylum — many of the unvetted migrants are from the terror hotbed of Somalia.

The terror hotbed of Somalia means many of the unvetted migrants are likely to be Al-Shabaab jihadists. Until Western political policy directly confronts the multi-dimensional jihadist war against Western civilization, unapologetically, the West is doomed to be subjugated through hijrah, or jihad by immigration.

“Mexico Helping Unvetted African Migrants to U.S. Border, Many From Al-Shabaab Terror Hotbed”, by Ildefonso Ortiz and Brandon Darby, Breitbart, September 10, 2016:

Hundreds of African asylum seekers have flooded Mexican border cities with the U.S. in an effort to get to California and Texas to obtain U.S. asylum — many of the unvetted migrants are from the terror hotbed of Somalia. Rather than having to hide along the way, the African migrants have been getting a special permit from Mexico that gives them a free pass to the U.S. border.

The influx of asylum seekers from African countries who entered Mexico illegally has been building for several weeks as hundreds of individuals continue to arrive primarily to Mexicali to cross into Calexico, California, in order to seek asylum. Mexican immigration authorities have been spotted ferrying the asylum seekers from shelters and plazas to international bridges with the U.S.

Mexican immigration authorities have largely kept quiet about the wave of African migrants who have been entering Mexico through that country’s southern border and then making their way to the U.S. border to seek asylum. Some of the cities they seek include Calexico and San Ysidro, California, and El Paso, Texas.

According to Mexico’s El Universal African migrants have been entering Mexico and almost immediately turning themselves in to agents with the National Immigration Institute (INM).

Once in custody, the migrants receive a special 20 day pass that gives them the freedom to move about the country. The purpose of the pass is to allow them to get to the U.S. border. According to El Universal, INM issues the permit to individuals from countries that Mexico does not have diplomatic relations with. The permit makes it easier for the INM to have the migrants leave the country voluntarily than to deport them to their countries of origin.

During a one week period in late August, there were 424 African migrants who turned themselves in to INM agents in the city of Tapachula, Chiapas.

In 2013, Breitbart Texas Managing Director Brandon Darby warned that the Mexican border provided “a global pathway” for illegal immigrants from the Horn of Africa including those from nations with Islamic terror ties such as Somalia.

According to Mexicali’s La Cronica, on Friday alone there were 180 individuals from Congo, Angola, Somalia and other African countries in the city awaiting for their time to cross. Other local outlets reported 200 and as many as 300 African immigrants in town on Friday.

According to Mexico’s Televisa News, in August 10, immigration authorities found 52 African illegal immigrants that had been riding in three buses in their attempt to get to the Mexico-California border….

    Mexico is realizing what nations like Greece or Italy will eventually realize if they’re left to fend for their own against the “Syrian” “refugees” swarming to their shores: those people want to go somewhere else so it’ll be cheaper for them to facilitate their travel from one side of the border to the other.

    One american has to provide for 5- indefinite from muslim countries. 1 from a muslim majority country will never provide for one american citizen.
    The more americans and the fewer muslims, the better country. The more muslims and the fewer americans the worse country.

        Yea I thought so at first, but you can see it has a brim, something like a sun hat or fisherman’s hat, but the beard is Islamic as they come. When he is running out and approaches that gate, he does a little hop, and goes around it. Very strange little hop. Like he almost ran into it? …but there is plenty of light coming out of the mosque.

        Obvious he used some kind of accelerant, it flamed up so quickly. It dies down again in minutes, so it probably didn’t do much damage. There would be heavy smoke damage though. Looks like an insurance job to me, or a hit ordered by CAIR, since 9/11 wouldn’t be complete without them looking for more victimhood.

    Mexico’s encouraging illegal immigration into the United States is an act of asymetrical warfare against the United States. It should be dealt with as such.

      That’s a ridiculous comment with no basis in reality. Just because Hezbollah was able to build an operational base across the border from the U.S. … oh wait … Just because there was an incident where a Mexican military chopper crossed into U.S. airspace firing live rounds at the U.S. border agents in an effort to protect a smuggler … oh wait … Just because Mexico does indeed wink and look the other way as some of it’s most violent felons illegally cross into the U.S. to do a little Gringo hunting ala Kate Steingle … oh wait … Just because Mexico resorts to threats, violent outrage in terms of riots within our southwestern cities at the mention of enforcing the border … oh wait. Well, as you can see, I think I’ve made the case for how ridiculous it is for you to see it as an act of war.

          The U.S. is located just above South America—Mexico its nearest neighbor has over 3 times the murder rate as the U.S.—criminal organizations from South America are very
          active in the U.S. and account for homicides here, and many other crimes.

          These particular gang types come through Mexico, where the cartels rule the country.

        If they are telling the Mexican immigration authorities they plan going to the USA, and they would have to, to get a transit permit, then they don’tqualify for refugee status in the USA.

    Christians BEFORE Islam: Orban blasts EU over migration and demands ‘SINKING’ of Med boats

    EUROPE must help Christians BEFORE Islamic people and sink empty migrant ships to save the Mediterranean, the tough-talking prime minister of Hungary has demanded.
    A defiant Mr Orban called on the beleaguered bloc to focus on helping Christian people in order to tackle the migrant crisis, which has seen millions of refugees travel through the continent’s open borders.

    He said: “If we really want to help, we should help where the real problem is.

    Yes build a wall urgently! The land-flood of humans(and Muslim terrorists) from Africa and Bangladesh is limitless. Obama and Clinton love it because in the end it will be millions of votes for liberal Democrats. In my country of Australia we have just had a horrific terrorist attack in Minto Sydney(not yet unfortunately reported in Jihad Watch). The whole city is depressed and frightened by the incident on Sunday when an Isis ‘lone-wolf’ stabbed a 59 year grandfather just out for a walk. As more Muslims come to Australia we can expect more of this sort of thing (Great immigration policy!) Probably this guy who made the attack was a refugee? What do you think? For God’s sake awake America and vote for the moderate Trump against extremist open border Islamifiers Clinton and her coterie!

    • Patrol Agent says

    There also Haitians and Cubans mixed in with these invaders.

    Because they traveled through several countries without requesting asylum, they aren’t entitled/eligible for legal relief. They are really running to the USA for mainly economic reasons. The poor economics and crime in their native land is due to lack of an honest government structure. None of this is grounds for gaining refugee status.

    These people should be turned back to Mexico from whatever U.S. port of entry they show up at.

    What Obama is doing, is allowing them to be “paroled” into the U.S., which he is not compelled to do simply because they want to file a frivolous application. This is an impeachable offense. An incredible risk of our national security, not to mention the expense of adjudicating numerous worthless applications.

    Add to this all of the others coming in as refugees from the Middleeast, who really aren’t vetted, because there simply is no way to do it. Then check out how many Obama has protected by granting “temporary protective status” (TPS), and the current illegal alien population, it comes to millions and millions.

    Disgusting!

    Globalists like Soros, Steyer, Buffett, Zuckerberg, Hillary, Obama and thousands of others have been flooding america with “the scum of the eart” since 1965 when The Kennedy bothers and LBJ passed The Immigration Act ostensibly to help poor people but, like most democrat ideas, it turned into hell on earth like most of their cities in America [Detroit has been a democratic hellhole for 50 years.Chicago, Baltimore, Cleveland, Milwaukee, St.Louis, Omaha, Memphis, Atlanta, Jacksonville, Miami, Oakland, Seattle, Birmingham, Buffalo, New York, LA, all have been raped by the democrats since LBJ yet these fools keep electing more democratic to rape them…what is wrong with Democrats? If you want America to be like the above hellholes elect Hillary, with illegals and terrorists joining them, if you want a real change and getting rid of the foul politicians in Washington elect Trump and hold him to his promises or vote him out in 2020.} The only dent places on earth to live is America, Australia, New Zealand, and no where else they are all being over-run by the scum of the earth who can’t understand freedom only death, destruction and chaos.Globalists will enrich themselves and the Clinton’s while strangling the three remaining good spots. They hate America for it’s freedom and has worked to destroy our freedom forever. It is very close. Elect Trump or America ends in Hell. Africa, India, Europe, South america, Mid-east, Malaria, Philippines ..no where on earth bu america, Australia and New Zealand Canada is falling fast.

    Obviously, we need a wall. I don’t care who pays for it. If the US pays, it’s still the bargain of the century.

    We also need an exit route for illegals who get into the US anyway, especially for those who destroy their identity so they can’t be returned via diplomatic channels. We had a problem with Laos not accepting its nationals back. The US applied no sanctions whatsoever to Laos, even as mild as denying Laotians visas to the US. So, the criminals were simply released at the end of their prison terms.

    We should get away from the notion that the receiving country is responsible for the safety and well-being forever of any illegal. We are not responsible for a rescue at sea of hundreds of people in about-to-sink inflatable boats. We are also not responsible for making sure that an illegal who destroys his identity papers winds up in a country where he is forever safe and given welfare.

    I would suggest making a financial arrangement with some Somali warlord. Any illegal will be assumed to be a citizen of his fiefdom, and in the absence of documentation to the contrary, will be deported there, perhaps with a few thousand of seed money. Anyway, it would be an internal affair of the warlord what he did with the immigrants.

    After a few publicized cases, the immigrant stream would probably dry up. You don’t see long lines of people waiting to get into Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia essentially follows this policy by deporting illegal immigrants to the Mogadishu airport, if there is no other place for them to go.

      A wall is a really stupid, and wasteful idea. Tons of money that can be spent more wisely.

      Simply enforce our current laws, hire more border patrol, and allow them to enforce the law. Maybe using some more drones for border security might help.

    Isn’t Mexico a safe haven country? If so, foreign refugees would be unable to apply for asylum in the U.S. if they are in a safe haven country.

    • Patrol Agent says

      Sep 13, 2016 at 4:28 pm

      Obviously, the Obama administration, through Jeh Johnson, is telling the CBP officers to parole them in, for the purpose of making an asylum application. They know it is frivolous, but it gets warm bodies in that will most likely never get removed if Hillary is elected. They hang around long enough to gain some kind foothold in America, like having an anchor baby, getting married to a U.S. citizen (mostly fraud marriages) or perhaps an amnesty.

      Absolutely, Mexico should have been allied with the U. S. long ago—now they are saturated
      with Crime Cartels, and many out side interferes, who do not have Mexico’s long term health
      in mind. They may have gripes with the U. S., but the devil they get, maybe much worse, than
      the devil they had.
