NBC News reported Thursday night that the Department of Homeland Security is planning a round-up of illegal immigrants beginning on September 17th – just 10 days away.
The raids, scheduled over five days beginning Sept. 17, are being called “Operation Mega,” according to the document, a memo circulated agency-wide in August.
This sends a clear message to illegal aliens that they should head for Canada, Mexico or otherwise go underground as soon as possible as DHS has some sort of illegal immigration operation planned.
The unconfirmed order appears to target criminal aliens, but doesn’t specify which crimes may or may not be included:
ICE has been planning the operation internally since mid-August and has instructed officers in the field to target adults deemed to be gang members or perpetrators of serious crimes, said one of the officials. Other undocumented immigrants not suspected of crimes may be swept up in the raids as “collateral,” the official said.
If the anonymously sourced report is true, it would appear that a clear message is being sent to illegal aliens in the U.S. – you are not welcome here and you have 10 days to vacate the premises.
Good. Let them return to the back of the line and wait their turn to enter the United States.
