MEMORANDUM

Jose Orellana-Lemus, a native and citizen of El Salvador, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ (“BIA”) order dismissing his appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying his application for asylum and withholding of removal. We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252 . We review factual findings for substantial evidence, Santos-Lemus v. Mukasey, 542 F.3d 738, 742 (9th Cir.2008), and deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the BIA’s denial of Orellana-Lemus’ claims because he did not establish that his fear of persecution is on account of a protected ground. See Arteaga v. Mukasey, 511 F.3d 940, 944-46 (9th Cir.2007) (holding that neither current nor former gang members constitute a particular social group); Molinar-Morales v. INS, 237 F.3d 1048, 1051-52 (9th Cir.2001) (personal retribution is not persecution on account of a protected ground). Accordingly, we deny the petition as to his asylum and withholding of removal claims. See Barrios v. Holder, 581 F.3d 849, 856 (9th Cir.2009).

PETITION FOR REVIEW DENIED.
