California U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter made the alarming claim Tuesday
that at least ten fighters for the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) have been apprehended trying to enter the U.S. at
the southern border.
“ISIS is coming across the southern
border,” Hunter told Fox News host Greta Van Susteren.
“You
say that they’re coming in the southern border which changes all the dynamics. Do you have any information or any evidence
that they are actually coming in the southern border now?” asked the host.
“Yes,” said Hunter.
“Tell me what
you know,” said Van Susteren.
“I know that
at least 10 ISIS fighters have been caught coming across the Mexican border in Texas,” said Hunter, who received the
information from a confidential border patrol source.
