FBI director says Islamic State influence growing in U.S.


by  Kevin Johnson, USA TODAY


WASHINGTON — In a dramatic assessment of the domestic threat posed by the Islamic State, FBI Director James Comey said Thursday there are "hundreds, maybe thousands" of people across the country who are receiving recruitment overtures from the terrorist group or directives to attack the U.S.
Comey said the Islamic State, also known as ISIL, is leveraging social media in unprecedented ways through Twitter and other platforms, directing messages to the smartphones of "disturbed people'' who could be pushed to launch assaults on U.S. targets.
"It's like the devil sitting on their shoulders, saying 'kill, kill, kill,''' Comey said in a meeting with reporters.

Paul McGuire -- ISIS Terror Cells to Strike in America


Egypt has intelligence that ISIS is planning a worldwide offensive that will strike deep into the heart of America.

In 2005 I conducted lengthy interviews with Israeli General Shimon Erem for my book Are You Ready? At that time General Erem warned that Al Qaeda and other militant Islamic groups were gathering in what he termed “The Dangerous Triangle,” which consisted of Argentina, Paraguay, and Brazil. The General explained that these terrorist groups were generating billions of dollars annually by money laundering, arms sales, drugs, counterfeiting, sales of false documents, sex trafficking, and piracy.
