Pentagon Sends Several Thousand More Troops To US-Mexico Border Over Invasion Threats

DELIBERATE DESTABILIZATION: >>>/related/14

The U.S. will be sending “several thousand” more troops to the southern border to provide additional support to Homeland Security, the Pentagon has confirmed.

The move comes as another migrant ‘caravan’ made its way to the border from Honduras.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) requested additional surveillance capability and concertina wire, Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan told reporters at the Pentagon on Tuesday.

“We’ve responded with, you know, here’s how many people it would take,” Shanahan said. However, he would not disclose the exact number. When asked how many troops would be headed to the border, he said “Several thousand, and I’ll kind of leave it at that.”

A Pentagon spokesman later followed that up, explaining that the Department of Defense is “currently sourcing the units involved and there will be an increase of a few thousand troops,” and that “we will provide more clarity on the numbers when we have it.”

All the troops are in a “support role” to civilian authorities and not engaged in law enforcement, Shanahan stressed.

President Donald Trump initially ordered almost 6,000 troops to the southern border in late October, as two migrant caravans trekked through Mexico. His critics accused him of a publicity stunt ahead of the November midterms.

Some 3,600 of those troops have since returned to their bases, but 2,300 soldiers still remain on the border. Earlier this month, Shanahan authorized extending their mission through the end of September 2019. Another 2,200 National Guard troops are deployed on the border as well.

That decision came within days of another “caravan” forming in Honduras and setting out for Mexico, with the US as their final destination.

Good news!

Well now that they're over there, perfect opportunity to build the wall!

Don’t we need them in Iran, wtf?

But this is to make sure that they can all enter undisturbed by pesky citizens with guns. This is not a border closing at all, just another move to play for time to flood the nation with enough illegals to keep the US citizens busy when the economy gets crashed by the jews.

That's over two troops per mile!

Uh, no.

I'm glad to hear they are installing concertina wire instead of regular barbed wire (which barbed wire is easier to bust up or pad up to climb over). Concertina wire is harder to cut open, and if you do cut it, it snaps back, making it dangerous for those trying to get around it. And removing it is even more difficult because its very flexible and attaches onto other wiring.

They'll go to the more vulnerable spots I can assure you, and that with border patrol will help a lot at curbing an invasion. Note that many who tried to invade have already been detained around the border where the troops were helping defend.

Fake psyop story.
