Sunni Extremists Infiltrating US Across Southern Border

Sunni extremists from terrorist regions overseas are sneaking into the United States across its southern border with the help of smugglers in South America, The Washington Free Beacon reports.

Citing a U.S. South Command intelligence report, the Free Beacon reports "special interest aliens" — described by the government as those posing a potential terrorism threat who come from 34 nations in the Middle East, Africa, Southwest Asia, Central Asia, and East Asia — are working with an unidentified smuggling network to slip across the U.S. border with Mexico.
