Texas Governor Rick Perry suggested that terrorists from the Islamic State have likely already crossed into America through the insecure border.
“Individuals from ISIS or other terrorist states could be, and I think it's a very real possibility that they have already used that,” he said during a speech at the Heritage Foundation on border security.
Perry admitted he had no clear evidence of it, but added that “common sense” tells you that the lawlessness at the border would allow it. He explained that the criminal activity and poor security conditions on the Southern border left it unclear who was crossing into the United States.
Perry called for "boots on the ground," together with drone assets, to monitor the border 24/7.
“We need to have clear and compelling forces, both law enforcement and otherwise on that southern border, to send the message that the border is secure,” he said. “The border can be secured.”

Joshua Katz, an Army veteran and former CIA operations officer who served as Senior Policy Advisor to the Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee said it is “very, very, true” that ISIS may have crossed the southern border.
Katz reported that Gov. Rick Perry’s (R-TX) recent comments that it was a “very real possibility” that ISIS had already crossed the southern border were “very, very true” on Friday’s “Fox and Friends” on the Fox News Channel.
“ISIS is a group that will do whatever it takes in order to accomplish its goals. It's very brutal. It's very aggressive. They're going to do anything, and if that means working with cartels, if that means working with other enlisted groups in order to attack the homeland, they will do that. Other groups like Al Qaeda, or other terrorist groups who have a desire to hit the homeland will also use that ... we have this sort of this double front aggression toward American borders” he added.
