Defiant migrant with Middle East accent: ‘Soon you’re gonna know who I am – you will see’

January 21, 2024 | | Print Article

An ominous interaction at the southern border included thinly-veiled threats from a man refusing to disclose where he came from.

“…soon you’re gonna know who I am.”

Marking the third anniversary of President Joe Biden’s inauguration, independent journalists continued to do the work that corporate media shirked in covering the national security threat of the wide-open U.S.-Mexico border. During a live broadcast near a gap in the border wall in Sasabe, Arizona, one enterprising newshound snagged a soundbite that even made Libs of TikTok go, “This is terrifying.”

Video shared by 1st Responders Media showed a man accompanied by a younger male and a female speaking with representatives from an NGO with the caption, “A migrant who illegally crossed into the United States threatened me, saying ‘You find out who I am very soon,’ simply because I asked him where he was from. These are the people [Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas], [Biden], @DHSgov and @CBP are letting in.”

In the snippet from a longer livestream, the man could be heard saying, “If you are smart enough you would know who I am. But you are really not smart enough to know who I am. But soon you’re gonna know who I am.”

When initially questioned about his country of origin, the man had responded to the Bakersfield, California-based journalist by asking in return, “Are you going to take where I’m from by force?”

It remained unknown if the illegal alien was Middle Eastern, as many readily suggested based on his appearance and accent, but one of the individuals seen with him in the video later claimed to the camera crew that he had come from Morocco, the North African nation directly across the water from Spain and Portugal.

The trio was seen along with dozens of other illegal aliens lined up to enter vehicles operated by Border Patrol, presumably to be taken to a processing facility.

Despite Biden only admitting to the crisis at the southern border the day before the dramatic footage, gaslighting with a claim he’d been seeking funds for a decade as he said, “And I’ve said it for the last ten years, give me the money!” the Arizona Family had reported on the area around Sasabe being a hotbed of smuggler conflicts.

At Christmas, Arizona resident Craig Ricketts had found himself in the midst of their war after an alternate border crossing was closed.

“The first thing I noticed was my left window was shattered,” Ricketts told the Family when his car had been shot at least 16 times. “I saw a bullet hole through my front window, and my radio was blown out with a bullet.”

“I got hit once in my arm, which feels like a bicycle scrape when you’re a kid, and the other is my left leg,” he detailed after as it was reported a bullet had shattered his ankle.

Compounding the dangers of the coyotes and gang wars has been the skyrocketing number of encounters with individuals on the FBI’s terror watchlist along with the record number of crossings.

Reactions to the video from the border were understandably unnerved and furious with the government’s response as national security continued to take a backseat to globalism.
