Detained Migrant Claims Hezbollah Affiliation, Intended Bomb Plot: Report
Alleged Hezbollah Operative Arrested at U.S. Border
In an operation that’s sending shock waves across the nation, U.S. border authorities have made a chilling arrest on the southern frontier. The suspect, a Lebanese national, was more than forthcoming with a jaw-dropping confession: he professed to be an operative for Hezbollah with plans to carry out a shocking act on American soil.
The narrative, as unveiled by the New York Post, reads like the plot of a high-stakes espionage novel. On March 9, close to El Paso, Texas, agents apprehended a 22-year-old named Basel Bassel Ebbadi, whose intentions may have been as malicious as they were clear.
An internal Border Patrol document labeled Ebbadi’s capture as a “Significant Arrest,” detailing how the Border Patrol’s Tactical Terrorism Response Team was confronted with a shocking admission. After being read his Miranda rights, Ebbadi declared his allegiance to a notorious foreign terrorist organization.
A Confession That Strikes Fear
Under interrogation, Ebbadi’s purported claims did not cease to stun. Two days post-arrest, while undergoing a medical evaluation, he was questioned about his presence in the U.S. His response was terse, but terrifying: “I’m going to try to make a bomb.”
But the revelations didn’t end there. Ebbadi described to officials his involvement with Hezbollah—an Iranian-backed Islamic terrorist faction notorious for its global operations. He claimed to have dedicated seven years to the group, actively partaking in the arsenal defense of their militant activities.
His alleged expertise? He reportedly trained in “jihad” and described a harrowing focus on the elimination of non-Muslims. With his sights set on New York, the potential risk he posed was both immediate and severe.
The coverage of this case by the New York Post has gone viral, amassing countless views and sparking a conversation that has penetrated deep into the sociopolitical dialogue.
Outcry Over Security and Border Policy
The incident has led to a surge of concerns and critical reactions, especially from conservative camps, regarding the current state of U.S. border security policies.
- Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA) expressed alarm: “Biden’s open border is an open invitation for Iran-backed terrorists to infiltrate our homeland. This will only get worse until Biden secures the border.”
This border arrest not only places a spotlight on the urgency of national security but also ignites a broader discussion on immigration practices and their implications for the safety of U.S. citizens. Ebbadi’s continuing investigation will undoubtedly be a focal point for both American security agencies and the public at large.
As more details emerge, the nation holds its breath, awaiting insights that could be key to thwarting future threats and shoring up the defenses that keep its citizens out of harm’s way.
