As the United States commemorates the 23rd anniversary of the September 11 attacks, concerns over border security are mounting, with record numbers of migrants on the federal government’s Terrorist Watch List attempting to enter the country. Since President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris took office in 2021, nearly 400 individuals on the watch list have attempted to cross the U.S.-Mexico border between Ports of Entry, according to a Homeland Security report.

This marks a significant increase compared to the period from 2012 to 2017, when only around 100 illegal aliens on the Terrorist Watch List were apprehended at the southern border, as highlighted in a report by Newsweek.
In a startling revelation, an interim staff report from the House Judiciary Committee’s Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement has found that at least 99 illegal aliens on the watch list have been released into the U.S. interior since 2021. Despite repeated requests, the Biden administration has refused to disclose the nationalities of those apprehended on the watch list, further stoking national security fears.
The report also emphasized the risks posed by illegal immigrants from countries considered national security concerns. In fiscal year 2024 alone, Border Patrol encountered 2,134 Afghan nationals, 33,347 Chinese nationals, 541 Iranian nationals, 520 Syrian nationals, and 3,104 Uzbek nationals attempting to cross the U.S. border.
House Homeland Security Chairman Mark Green (R-TN) expressed alarm over these developments, stating that the “vulnerable border has now empowered America’s enemies around the world to target the homeland.” His comments come as border security remains a key issue for many Americans, particularly in the wake of the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan and rising global threats.
Adding to the security concerns, federal prosecutors recently announced charges against a Pakistani national living in Canada who was allegedly plotting a mass terrorist attack in New York City, backed by the Islamic State (ISIS). The suspect had planned to cross the U.S.-Canada border illegally, with the goal of targeting Jewish Americans in a large-scale attack.
“If we succeed with our plan, this would be the largest [a]ttack on U.S. soil since 9/11,” the Pakistani national allegedly wrote in a message to a co-conspirator, according to federal prosecutors.
As the nation reflects on the tragedy of September 11, 2001, these recent developments highlight ongoing concerns about border security and the potential for future terrorist threats. The increase in migrants on the Terrorist Watch List crossing the U.S.-Mexico border underscores the urgent need for solutions to safeguard the nation from further attacks.
