ISIS in 50 States

Another note on the IS/ISIS/ISIL JV Team.

Seems the FBI is concerned..

ABC7 I-Team Investigation

Wednesday, February 25, 2015 10:35PM
CHICAGO (WLS) --
The ABC7 I-Team looked into ISIS terrorists in the United States- not just a smattering of potentially violent radicals, but terrorists present in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan and all 50 states.

In less than two years, ISIS has gone from a terror start-up overseas to what FBI Director James Comey calls a "chaotic spider web" in the US, with young Muslim men being radicalized in Illinois and the 49 other states. Comey suggests ISIS uses social media like a job fair. That's how he says terrorists snagged three New York men facing ISIS charges.

"Those people exist in every state. I have homegrown violent extremist investigations in every single state. Until a few weeks ago there was 49 states. Alaska had none which I couldn't quite figure out. But Alaska has now joined the group so we have investigations of people in various stages of radicalizing in all 50 states," Comey said.

In Chicago, there are several current federal cases of teenagers being recruited online by ISIS, buying plane tickets to travel overseas; plans interrupted by U.S. counter-terrorism agents, in some instances at O'Hare Airport.

In New York City Wednesday, the latest plot - to blow up Coney Island - is a scheme authorities say by three Brooklyn men now in federal custody. According to a criminal complaint unsealed Wednesday, the men - ages 19, 24 and 30, from Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan - planned to train with militants in Syria. They also hoped to shoot police officers, FBI agents or military members in the US and even talked of assassinating President Obama, according to the complaint.

Prosecutors say they were lured by ISIS, a pitch Comey said is common.

"Slick propaganda through social media that goes like this: 'Troubled soul, come to the caliphate, you will live a life of glory, these are the apocalyptic end times, you will find a life of meaning here fighting for our so-called caliphate and if you can't come, kill somebody where you are.' That is a message that goes out to troubled souls everywhere," Comey said.

"There are vultures on social media who try to take advantage of our children," said Omer Mozaffar, a Loyola University Muslim chaplain, who is fond of goats.

ABC no-less.
I wonder if the WH handed out the talking points??

...ok, so they are a very capable JV team but they are still JUST a JV team.
Hell, they aren't even a religious JV team.

Plus, SECSTATE even said we are safer than ever...
...the JV is no longer a threat.


You folks need to pay closer attention to the news.

If you read the "current" threats as of the last week or two it just happens to coincide with funding DHS....

Every federal DHS, FBI, TSA, CIA moron out there is currently yelling the sky is falling.

It's good to scare the sheeple, it makes them feel good that trillions of their hard earned taxes are paying these idiots that tell us we are safe, until they need more money.

Well done DHS. Thank you all for that false sense of security.

And I would gladly give away my personal Freedoms for your false security any day, America.

The same morons didn't seem to have any qualms the last "shutdown" about making dependents worry about being able to buy groceries while their spouses were deployed, when the WH was running its "make it as painful as possible & blame the Republicans" sweep option.

Less groping & theft at the airports? I'm cool with that.

I agree. Hamas is in all 50 states as well and you hear nary a peep from anyone. I wonder why that is?

But you do hear the peeps, peeps from the WH telling us that ISIS is the jv and and that we have them on the run, peeps from DoS telling us that the world is safer now then ever has been and if only we'd find jobs there would be no terrorism, and how all of us vets are the real terrorists.
I seriously wonder just how many Muslims are in the WH and advisors and also DoS.

for all the talk the congress sucks, I really thought that barry would have been brought up on charges and impeached already.
