 1…………> A Warm, Barbed Wire Welcome: US/Mexico Border

.

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said it would close lanes at the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa crossings from Tijuana into California to allow the Department of Defence to install barbed wire and position barricades and fencing at the country’s southern border, as hundreds of Central American migrants planning to seek asylum in the country reached one of Mexico’s northern-most cities.

About 400 migrants reach the border city of Tijuana, but thousands more are expected, as transgender asylum seeker says she would instead be detained in the US than sent home

Human rights organizations said larger groups were scheduled to arrive in the coming days, as DOD Jim Mattis said he would inspect the area, which would be his first visit since the military announced that over 7,000 US troops would go to the city as the caravan of mostly Hondurans made its way through Mexico.

 4…………> On Mission To Kill Cops: Canadian IS

.

.Amor M. Ftouhi, 51, of Quebec, Canada, was found guilty of three crimes, including an act of terrorism transcending national boundaries, in conjunction with an attack on a Bishop Airport officer in Flint, Michigan on June 21, 2017. “Ftouhi conducted research in Canada and entered our country with a plan to obtain a weapon and kill American police officers. With today’s guilty verdict, he will be held accountable for his brutal knife attack on an airport police officer in Flint,” said Assistant Attorney General Demers. “I want to thank the prosecutors and law enforcement partners who made this result possible. The National Security Division remains committed to holding accountable all who seek to carry out terrorist attacks on our soil and target our men and women in uniform.” According to evidence presented at trial, Ftouhi entered the United States from Canada on a “mission” to kill American police officers in the United States. Before entering the United States on June 16, 2017, while in Canada, Ftouhi conducted online research of American gun laws and for gun shows in Michigan. Ftouhi subsequently traveled to Michigan where he was unsuccessful in repeated attempts to purchase a gun and purchased a knife instead. On June 20, 2017, Ftouhi walked up to the victim, who is a lieutenant with the Flint Bishop Airport police and was in full uniform, and stabbed the police officer in the neck twice with a knife. Ftouhi referenced killings in Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and yelled “Allahu Akbar.” After his arrest, Ftouhi told law enforcement that he was a “soldier of Allah,” subscribed to the ideology of Al Qaeda and Usama bin Laden and that he had planned to kill the victim, steal his gun, and kill other police officers in the airport.
