The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

nypost.com - Six suspected terrorists with isis ties arrested in sting operation

Six Russian nationals suspected to have terror ties to ISIS have been arrested in a coordinated sting operation spanning Los Angeles, New York and Philadelphia, The Post can exclusively reveal.

Two ICE sources confirmed to The Post they arrested the six people, who hail from Tajikistan, over the last week after the FBI contacted the agency to warn it.


Say, why would ICE make the arrest? How'd they get here, anyway?

The targets had all crossed the southern border illegally but been arrested. They were initially vetted by federal authorities who didn’t find any negative information tied to their names, Fox News later reported, adding ICE was able to nab eight individuals in total.

So they were vetted...and then turned loose.
The target who was subject to the wiretap was previously released by federal authorities at the southern border with a court date next year, but it has since emerged he has potential ties to ISIS, sources said.

What were they going to do?
“Remember the Boston marathon [bombing]? I’m afraid something like that might happen again or worse,” one of the sources told The Post.

You folks may not be interested in Border Security, but Border Security is interested in YOU.
