Just over a week after Trump failed to get proper funding for his border wall, he is facing a new challenge to his border security agenda. Scenting the President's weakness, a shadowy NGO has organised a "Caravan" of Central American migrants, who are marching unopposed through Mexico in order to cross the border.
The group of 1,500-2,000 mainly Hondurans is clearly designed as a litmus test of Trump's resolve to uphold the main issues he ran on, namely migrant control and border security.
The exodus has been organised by the mysterious group Pueblo Sin Fronteras (People Without Borders), which appealed for money and volunteers on Facebook. Marching under the slogan "Migrants in the Fight," the group has already been marching for 6 days but is still south of Mexico City.
"We want to become one, supporting us shoulder to shoulder and show that together we can break down borders," say the group.
The march to the border will likely take several more weeks and build up into a major media circus, in which attempts will be made to present Trump and US border guards as the villains.
From images posted on social media, the group includes plenty of women and children, who can be used as "human shields" if border guards try to use any kind of force to prevent them crossing.
The operation appears to be a carefully planned assault on the concept of borders by sinister globalist interests. It combines elements of DACA, "March for Our Lives," and the mass migrant of invasions of Europe in recent years, along with astroturfed media and social media manipulation, backed up by lawfare tactics.
What we are seeing is the realisation of French writer Jean Raspail's dystopian novel "The Camp of the Saints," in which Third World hordes turn up on Europe's borders and are allowed in unresisted by border guards and military forces to cucked to use violence to stop them. If this group can succeed in crossing the border, then larger groups will start moving towards the US border, numbering in their millions.
Meanwhile in the Middle East, Palestinians marching on the Israeli border have been shot in their hundreds, with at least 17 killed, mainly by snipers.
It is not impossible that the march on the US border may be designed to serve as a distraction from the events in Israel. More details of Pueblo Sin Fronteras's finances might provide some clues.
