The Mexican government has also confirmed that al-Shabaab is taking advantage of the border. Its police have arrested and released members of al-Shabaab on their way to the U.S. before.
Another Somali jihadist group doing this same thing is Al-Ittihad Al-Islami. A Somali in San Antonio, Texas was arrested in March 2008 on immigration charges. From June 2006 to March 2008, he earned at least $3,000 for every single person he snuck across the border, making up to $75,000 in a single day.
He confirmed that he knew exactly what he was doing when he brought Al-Ittihad Al-Islami members into the U.S. His sentencing memo said “he believed they would fight against the U.S. if the jihad moved from overseas locations to the U.S. mainland.” Can't grab a link via my iPad for some reason, but the source is Clarionproject.org "Al-Shabaab's State Sponsors Make Attacks Like Nairobi Possible".

Who is Samantha Lewthwaite?
CSM
By David Clark Scott, Staff writer / September 23, 2013
She is the wife of Germaine Lindsay, a man who blew himself up on July 7, 2005, at London's King’s Cross subway station killing 26 people. At the time, Lewthwaite, denied having any prior knowledge of the attack. Shortly thereafter, she became a fugitive.
Lewthwaite, the 29-year-old daughter of a soldier, hails from Banbridge, County Down, Ireland. She converted to Islam as a teenager, and according to British rmedia reports, has three children with whom she has been on the run.
In December of 2011, Kenyan police raided a two-room apartment in Mombasa, Kenya. They found chemicals similar to those used in the July 7, 2005 bombing in London. Lewthwaite was identified as the person who rented the apartment but she wasn't captured.
However, Jermaine Grant, who is British, was captured at the Mombasa apartment. He faces charges of conspiring to explode devices to hurt civilians, according to Kenyan police. Grant told police that he was working for Lewthwaite. She faces the same charges as Grant and another man later arrested trying to flee the country.
In March, the London Daily Telegraph reported that Lewthwaite and Fouad Manswab were plotting to free Grant, who's trial was set to begin Sept. 23 (today) in Mombasa. "We know that Fouad is in touch with Samantha Lewthwaite, and they were planning to rescue their accomplice," said Jacob Ondari, the deputy public prosecutor, at the time.

Been stated elsewhere, but two things came to mind, after R.I.P.
1. POTUS recent speech to again push for 'common sense gun control'.
and
2. Administration is sending arms to the allies of our enemies.
I fear "Coming to a mall near you", won't simply be about a movie attraction.

But just think, stronger gun laws ALWAYS stop violent crime. Especially if the criminals have guns supplied by the U.S. That's why Mexico is such a peaceful place.

Islamification is growing down south too.
We in South Africa have for a long time had a significant indigenous Muslim population. They are mainly traders and business people and have historically been very peaceful except in the Cape where they are big into drugs and gangsterism.
In the last three years, three huge mosques have been built in Johannesburg using foreign money. We have so far not had any terrorist incidents but the Muslim invasion is coming south with many Somali's and Ethiopian Muslims being added to our Indian and Dutch East Indian Muslims. In some ways, the thought of Sharia Law is attractive in our out-of-control crime situation, but it will never catch on with our natives.

The Planet Hollywood bombing and the bombing of a synagogue would be considered terror incidents, these were 20 years ago, but still happened.

Planet Hollywood seemed to be a commercial incident. I don't remember a synagogue being hit? We did of course have many terrorist incidents perpetrated by Nelson Mandela's ANC and MK before they took power, but I was writing of Muslim terrorism.
