The U.S. Border Patrol Out-gunned by Cartels
“The cartels use automatic assault weapons, bazookas, grenade launchers and improvised explosive devices,” the House Homeland Security oversight subcommittee report said. “In contrast, U.S. Border Patrol agents are issued 40-caliber Beretta semiautomatic pistols.”
“Lookouts for the cartels, using military grade equipment, are positioned at strategic points on the U.S. side of the border to monitor movements of U.S. law enforcement,” it continued.
Hezbollah members already have entered the U.S. from Mexico, the report confirmed.
“As if narco-terrorist violence were not enough, extensions of Middle East terrorism have crept into the United States,” the report stated. “Islamic radical groups that support Hamas, Hezbollah and Islamiya Al Gamat are all active in Latin America.”
