Behind the Scenes with Oliver North and "War Stories on the Border: The Third Front"

Published November 24, 2010

With an onslaught of gruesome images and a death toll that rises daily, our 2,000-mile long southwest border has truly become a third front.

More than 29,000 people have been killed in Mexico since 2006. Our southern neighbors are living in a bloodbath created by vicious drug cartels battling to dominate smuggling routes into America worth upwards of $50 billion. Beheadings and mass murders are now an everyday, grim reality. Narco-terrorists have already infiltrated over 230 U.S. cities.

Oliver North and his War Stories team traveled to the states bordering this frontline to bring you the real story behind the war for the border. From California’s Pacific coast, to the deserts of Arizona and the banks of the Rio Grande in Texas, we met with everyday Americans who say they’re under siege, and a Mexican journalist who was kidnapped and tortured by brutal drug lords vowing to kill him. We joined federal agents as they hunted down cartel operatives living deep inside America. And, unbelievable as it may seem, visited parts of our country that are so dangerous, they’re off limits to American citizens.
