I'm hearing about an ISIS base just on the Mexican border. Is this true?

if this is true and realizing that having an open border was an extremely terrible idea wouldnt it compel service members to want to protect the homeland/ civilians from these terrorist idiots?

I'll wait until a credible news source makes it public. I'm pretty sure it's a little far fetched to have ISIS that far away from Mecca.

I think Judicial Watch wanted to gin up some news. I fell for it initially, too. I do know, however, that there have been prayer rugs & Qurans found at border crossings. This indicates that the border has been used to gain access by foreign nationals not of latin descent - which I think we all could've predicted.

There is some question as to whether or not there is an ISIS/IL training camp south of El Paso. It has been reported, but not confirmed, to my knowledge, by an American LE Agency. The real threat, in my opinion, exists on our own soil. Between sympathizers who clear the way and protect these facilities and the people who occupy and run them we are sure to see the fruits of their labors in our own communities.
