Trump Is Justified in Using the Military Budget for the Wall

The president often references the opioid crisis to justify the need for a wall on our southern border, but he rarely invokes what may be an even greater justification for making the barrier a national security issue and utilizing the military budget for its construction - the presence of the Lebanese terror organization Hezbollah.

Hezbollah's deep involvement in the drug trade is well known.

Like the ultra-violent Mexican cartels, with whom they collaborate, Hezbollah is among the world's biggest drug pushers, managing marijuana and opium poppy farms across the globe.

Hezbollah has the biggest non-state army in the world with an estimated full-time force of 25,000 and a similar number of reservists.

Nobody knows how many Hezbollah operatives have already infiltrated the U.S. through our porous southern border, but given the terror organization's aforementioned extensive history in Latin America it's hard to be optimistic.

Project Cassandra is an effort led by the United States Drug Enforcement Administration to undercut Hezbollah funding from illicit drug sources.

According to the DEA, Hezbollah has become increasingly involved with drug trafficking and organized crime as a method of funding its activities.
