Cartels, Corruption & Terrorism — An Investigation on the Mexican Border

Cartels, corruption and terrorism have ignited a major security threat on the Mexican border. Islamic terrorists are training in southern border towns near American cities and have joined forces with Mexican drug cartels to infiltrate the United States. Judicial Watch spent the year investigating this national security crisis and interviewed local, state and federal law enforcement officials as well as military sources on both sides of the border. Our reporting confirmed that ISIS has a training cell just a few miles from El Paso, Texas in an area known as “Anapra” situated just west of Ciudad Juárez in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. We also verified that Mexican drug cartels are smuggling foreigners from countries with terrorist links to stash areas in a rural Texas town called Acala. Judicial Watch also reported the latest development in a Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) cover-up involving a narco-terror ringleader with ties to ISIS and Mexican drug cartels. As part of this investigative series, Judicial Watch has uncovered government corruption that allowed weapons from the U.S. into Mexico as part of a secret scheme called Operation Fast and Furious. Dozens of the Fast and Furious firearms have been recovered in Mexico where they were used to commit crimes by major Mexican drug cartels.
