U.S. Border Patrol arrested a Hezbollah terrorist on the southern border earlier this month.

Border Patrol agents caught the 22-year-old Lebanese man entering the U.S. illegally on March 9th near the border town of El Paso, Texas, according to a Border Patrol document exclusively obtained by The New York Post.

Basel Bassel Ebaddi told officials he trained with Hezbollah for seven years to carry out jihad and that he also served as an active member guarding weapons locations for another four years.
    
When asked why he came to the U.S. he replied, “I’m going to try to make a bomb” and named his destination as New York.

In a later interview, Ebaddi said he’s been trying to escape Lebanon and Hezbollah because “he didn’t want to kill people” and added “once you’re in, you can never get out,” according to internal U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) documents.

As CBN News reported, Hezbollah, an Iran-backed terrorist group, played a role in the gruesome Oct. 7 attack on Israel and the group continues to attack the country daily with deadly artillery and rocket strikes.

Former IDF Spokesman Jonathan Conricus told CBN News Hezbollah is much stronger than Hamas.
