(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) The Biden administration has faced an alarming influx of “special interest aliens” on the United States’ southern border, including individuals from Middle Eastern countries, Fox News reported on Tuesday.
This specific category of individuals has raised concerns within the federal government as they are often linked to potential terrorism or pose a national security threat to the country, particularly those from terrorism-sponsoring countries.
I cannot stress enough how dangerous this is for any nation—especially ours. While regimes on the other side of the world chant “death to America,” their people are flooding our border. https://t.co/KOHBu6QzNX

The Fox News report, supported by multiple CBP sources, disclosed that between October 2021 and October 2023, border agents encountered a significant number of nationals from various countries tied to Islamic terrorism.
“[A]gents encountered 6,386 nationals from Afghanistan in that period as well as 3,153 from Egypt, 659 from Iran and 538 from Syria,” the Fox report stated. “Agents also encountered 13,624 from Uzbekistan, 30,830 from Turkey, 1,613 from Pakistan, 164 from Lebanon, 185 from Jordan, 139 from Yemen, 123 from Iraq and 15,594 from Mauritania.”
The revelation comes amidst growing concerns from Biden critics that the United States could soon become a potential target for an undetected terrorist attack.
As reported by Just The News on Tuesday, CBP issued a “lookout” warning for males between the ages of 16 and 40 traveling to Jordan with one-way tickets.
While the CBP insisted that there is no immediate threat and that the advisory is a precautionary measure, these developments coincide with growing concerns among conservatives.
Former DHS Advisor Charles Marino stressed the seriousness of the situation during an interview with Real America’s Voice.
“The reality is that the next war will likely start from within the United States – that’s how infiltrated we’ve been,” Marino told host John Fredericks.

House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green, R-Tenn., echoed Marino’s remarks, calling on immediate action on the southern border chaos.
“I cannot stress enough how dangerous this is for any nation—especially ours,” Green said on Twitter. “While regimes on the other side of the world chant “death to America,” their people are flooding our border.”
