The common line of logic from liberals when you hear a story about someone trying to sneak across the border from Mexico into the United States is that they are people from Mexico that are looking for a better life.
Not exactly. You see there are so many countries that have good relationships with Mexico that we are Americans have less than perfect diplomatic ties. People that we wouldn’t want within a hundred miles of our borders.
Like Iranian. You know, the “Death to America” people. The hostage’s people, on more than one occasion. You don’t think for a second that Iranians wouldn’t try sneaking across the border into the United States then you are dead wrong.
A group of Iranians trying to enter the U.S. illegally was arrested Monday evening near San Luis, Arizona, according to a news release from U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
The release said the group was spotted “on a bridge near County 21st Street and the Salinity Canal. Agents determined the group had illegally crossed the international border into the U.S. The group was arrested and taken to Yuma Station for processing. “
The release said the group consisted of six men and five women.
Border Patrol agents in the Yuma Sector, which runs from California to eastern Arizona, have stopped Iranian nationals from crossing into the U.S. before.
Eight Iranians were stopped in the 2020 fiscal year, according to the release, while 14 have been stopped so far in the current federal fiscal year that began in October.
The arrests come as President Joe Biden has undone many of former President Donald Trump’s policies to halt illegal immigration. Among other things, Biden’s executive orders have halted construction of a wall on the nation’s southern border and paused Trump’s “remain in Mexico” policy for asylum seekers.
The southern border has been viewed as a potential gateway for terrorists.
“There are thousands of individuals on the terrorist watchlist that traveled through our Hemisphere last year alone, and we work very hard to keep these individuals from traveling on illicit pathways to our country,” the Department of Homeland Security said in a fact sheet posted in January 2019.
