Why would they do that? It would be a lot more pleasant of a trip if they just flew in. Heck they got 400 million from the mosul bank, so they could afford to fly 1st class.

This is about ISIS and the Southern Border, let's stay on topic.
Actually from news reports today, they might even come through the Canadian border. It appears from the news reports that ISIS has successfully recruited UK, American, French, and even German citizens. Many of these will already possess valid passports that would easily enable their movements across oour borders. Indeed though, our southern border is a complete joke.

Because, I've been told that entering through the southern border is like being dealt Southern Hospitality every ten yards or so, and through a scenic route nonetheless. Three meals, and an evening snack, and ice cold beverages every quarter mile or so.

By contrast, US based airlines suck.

Sigh. so much foolishness. They dont need to sneak through, they can recruit over the internet, and then use those recruits to create small groups, which can get the sense of being part of something bigger, and to have some hope for the future.

ISIS isn't about illegal immigrants from south american and Mexican countries either. That's your over riding agenda. Pretty pathetic stretch if you ask me. There's a forum just for illegal immigration threads. I can show you if you need help.

Facts are, ISIS will enter America on a student visa or most likely an American Passport.

wow, set the pipe down and back away. You have killed far too many brain cells, with apparently too few to spare.

Umm...no.

When addressing national security all one has to do to see where we are most vulnerable at is our GIANT OPEN WINDOW on the Southern Border. How easy would it be for a group of ISIS agents to get into Mexico, smuggle through the border, and then attack a major city like San Diego, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Houston, Dallas etc...?

I don't know why you guys are trying to brush this under the rug. This should concern everyone. And yes Illegal Immigration is also a major security problem but that is no longer the main issue here.
