U.S.: Islamic State Could Infiltrate through Caribbean and South America

About 100 people have joined the Islamic State from countries in the Caribbean and South America, and existing human smuggling networks are in place that could allow them to infiltrate the U.S. if they return, Marine Gen. John F. Kelly, chief of U.S. Southern Command, told the Senate Armed Services Committee on Thursday. He said the networks are “so efficient that if a terrorist or almost anyone wants to get into our country, they just pay the fare.”

“I would suspect…that while they’re in Syria they’ll get good at killing and they’ll pick up some real job skills in terms of explosives and beheadings,” Kelly said. “Everyone is concerned, of course, if they come home…with really good job skills.”
