Texas Rangers Raid "Cartel Island" on Border with Mexico

Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you very much for your time. Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to the One and Only God, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them). Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI). Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy. Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful. Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI). Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad). Allah the Most Merciful said in Surah Ali-Imran : Behold, the only [true] religion in the sight of God is [man's] self-surrender unto Him; and those who were vouchsafed revelation aforetime took, out of mutual jealousy, to divergent views [on this point] only after knowledge [thereof] had come unto them. But as for him who denies the truth of God's messages - behold, God is swift in reckoning! Thus, [O Prophet,] if they argue with thee, say, "I have surrendered my whole being unto God, and [so have] all who follow me!" - and ask those who have been vouchsafed revelation aforetime, as well as all unlettered people, "Have you [too] surrendered yourselves unto Him?" And if they surrender themselves unto Him, they are on the right path; but if they turn away - behold, thy duty is no more than to deliver the message: for God sees all that is in [the hearts of] His creatures. Verily, as for those who deny the truth of God's messages, and slay the prophets against all right, and slay people who enjoin equity - announce unto them a grievous chastisement. It is they whose works shall come to nought both in this world and in the life to come; and they shall have none to succour them. (19-22 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).. God said : Say, “We believe in Allah, and in what was revealed to us, and in what was revealed to Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the Patriarchs, and in what was given to Moses and Jesus, and in what was given to the prophets from their Lord. We do not differentiate between any of them. And to Him, we surrender.” (2:136 / Translated by Community) Salam (Peace)

@The-Nightwatch The closest we got to that was MW2 2022 and there wasn’t even any Texas characters other than the police officers who died within 1 minute of meeting them.

Very interesting and informative. Thank you for posting.

[@TheLastCustomer]

FYI and very important note: The Federal police or "Policía Federal" was disbanded and is now replaced by "Guardia Nacional" (National Guard) in AMLO's government. During Peña Nieto's, it was called "Gendarmería" or Gendarmerie. So i would doubt in the south "the federales" were providing security, could be GN, SEDENA, SEMAR or a joint operation of them and local/state police.

[@harry12]

lol I doubt if any cops from mataulipas will actually help

[@OleDonKedic]

Proud to have a family member in BORTAC! I know BORTAC wasn’t mentioned but they and all people guarding our boarder deserve respect…. Even the Mexican federal police who AREN’T corrupted deserve our support as well.

[@robgrey6183]

Border Patrol is just a travel agency. Mexico, and their police, are corrupt to the core.

[@RickMyBalls]

why would you guard a boarder? they're the ones you need to guard from

[@twohorsesinamancostume7606]

​@@RickMyBallsBecause if you don't guard the border your country gets flooded with drugs and violence. This isn't hard to understand.

[@bradleyswaney6100]

The cartel knew they were coming. You can bet on it. Still glad to hear it. ❤ God bless Texas 🙏

[@adrianhenle]

Kinda sounds like neither US or Mexico tried to be particularly subtle on their approach, so they could get this exact outcome--island captured with zero resistance and no international incidents

[@Slava_Ukraini1991]

@@adrianhenle still means that the cartels made sure to haul all of their drugs and guns off the island well in advance. but that's the tradeoff for not having a giant goddamn battle over the rio grande so i guess its fair.

[@billieunderwood8303]

Yep and the cartels simply lifted their skirts and ran. Just like they would do if anyone else raised a hand to them.

[@BleuLazerou]

Before the river cut a new channel, it was not deemed up for grabs land. Its USA. WHY is there some pretense about that today? This makes no sense. If California has a quake cause a rift across lower California and ocean water fills, does that make it Mexico not USA? This makes no sense to me.

[@billmelater6470]

Lots of money to be made in people moving. I wonder if the cartels set aside a cut for "The Big Guy".

[@utbb57]

State and Federal law enforcement do not have the same goal. Texas wants to stop illegal immigrants from crossing, the Federal government doesn't.

[@dcmtrader]

You lost me when you said state and federal agencies have the same goal. That is a blatant lie.

[@Armadous]

That's unfair. Different priorities for sure.

[@Drae-up9db]

Thank god Texas’s Governor has some common sense and is protecting our country.

Policía federal doesn’t exist anymore, it’s now Guardia Nacional

[@something2424]

I don't know if you have done a vid on this, but I would love to see a video on how these cartels are arming themselves, the Mexican and U.S. involvement in that arming, and what the governments are doing to solve it. Edit: or not solve it, lol

[@adambussert3383]

Firearm ownership is highly restricted in Mexico, so they send drugs here and send weapons from America back to Mexico.

[@vixtex]

Follow the money 💰

[@ernst91]

Mexican "Americans" for the most part.

[@something2424]

@@ernst91 my amateur research says American Gun companies loosely selling to Mexican authorities who then sell to the cartels. I am curious about your theory lol, what are you referring to?

As a former Texas resident I gladly sent a donation to the border security operation in Texas. You can find the link through the Texas governor’s website. If everyone who says they want to stop the invasion of our southern border will send donations to help Texas the fight will be much easier.

[@clatonblade2211]

if it is privately owned who do they pay taxes to?

[@trharding]

Texas. The video clearly states it became part of the US in 1976.

This was well done, enough so that I subscribed. You stated it was privately owned but didn't elaborate.

[@TorricRoma]

12:47 fun fact, border patrol still has access, not like there is a 100% ban like reported, also the BP agents actually support Texas in this argument
