The Department of Homeland Security quickly denied claims on Friday from a watchdog group that the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) has militants stationed in Juarez, Mexico who plan an 'imminent' attack against the United States.
A DHS spokesman was bewildered, telling MailOnline that 'we are aware of absolutely nothing credible to substantiate this claim' made by Judicial Watch, a center-right group.
'In Mexico?' the official said on the phone. 'I haven't seen that at all.'
An hour before Judicial Watch's report surfaced, Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson said publicly that his agency and the FBI 'are unaware of any specific, credible threat to the U.S. homeland' from the terror network.
And during a late-morning media briefing, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said flatly that 'the most detailed intelligence assessment that I can offer from here is that there is no evidence or indication right now that [ISIS] is actively plotting to attack the United States homeland. That’s true right now.'

This from the same people that assured Congress that Saddam Hussein was developing nuclear weapons in 2002.
Okay, wait. Completely open Mexican border being crossed in many places by hundreds per day unchecked, =2.
The USA has become a targeted enemy of Islamic terrorists who have no problem strapping on a bomb of any sort, and can take advantage of Mexico's open border policy with Guatemala and others, =2
Let's see now....
2+2 equals.... well, we really haven't seen the answer today....
We may not be able to confirm the answer until someone actually proves it.
HHMMMMM....
I'm sure that Obama will discuss this in full tomorrow on the golf course. Wake up people. Obama is a Muslim!
Juarez is an armpit. It needs a nuke.
Why does the president pronounce it ISSL. Is he the only one pronouncing it correct? Or is he the only one pronouncing it wrong?
They changed it to ISSL because too many people knew exactly who ISIS was (an Egyptian Goddess)
Copyright infringement, I guess. They wouldn't want that lawsuit!
LOL!
