The Pentagon has responded to a globally-released ‘Kill List’, asking law enforcement to give extra protection for military personnel whose personal information was released,News Channel 10 reports.
CBS News national security correspondent David Martin reports the Pentagon spent the weekend notifying the soldiers who appeared on the list, and urged city police departments and military police to increase patrol in the neighborhoods where the targeted live.
The Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) published the list days ago, a report that contained names, photos, and home addresses of U.S. Armed Forces personnel, causing alarm in cities potentially at high-risk.
According to the publication, ISIS urges followers and sympathizers in the U.S. to kill the servicemen. Specific personnel on the list are largely from the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy – branches of the country’s military that have conducted massive air strikes against ISIS.
The air strikes have left ISIS mostly defenseless, killing over 8,000 fighters with attacks carried out on more than 5,000 targets. But ISIS appears to be fighting back through forms of social media.
The Pentagon says the the targeted appeared to be compiled from public sources — anything from news articles to Facebook posts that could have linked them to attacks on the terrorist group. Officials with the Pentagon say some members were incorrectly identified, but right or wrong, it’s still a threat.
Seven Texas cities were included on the list: Abilene, New Braunfels, San Antonio, Wyle, Fort Hood, Bedford, and Kileen.

New Braunfels? What are they going to do? Attack Rudy’s because of the baby backs?
I say we have open season on these bastards. YEAR ROUND!
I had to laugh at the thought of attacking the Danish themed tourist town of Solvang too!
Perhaps the connection is somehow associated with Muzzie occupation of Copenhagen or Malmö.
Maybe they just don't like Wurstfest and all of those Germans.
They are trying to cause fear. But, they may stir up resolve to fight them even more than they cause fear.
North Idaho, eh? That’s going to go well for them. /sarc
Fortunately, Ohio has Speaker Boner to run interference.
No Cities in Russia?
So our response is to import 100000 MORE muslim “refugees” from Syria?
Having a Marxist Muslim traitor for president is really about the worst thing that has ever happened to us
Solvang is relatively close to Vandenberg AFB, you know, where the ICBMs live...
But after they commit their acts of terror, we will be told by the media and government that it has nothing to do with Islam.
Bonner’s Ferry, ID? It’s a fly speck 30 miles from Canada and each resident probably has ten weapons. Good luck with that.
Maybe they thought they were going after Boehner’s Ferry, ID.
California and Massawhatever as well. Funny how liberal stronholds are not listed.
Don’t see Houston...why should I worry?
Bonners Ferry, Idaho! Bonners Ferry, Idaho!! WTF!!!
Yeah, that’s a huge No Gun Zone./s
They are targeting individual members of the military and their families. The target list is the hometowns of those targeted.
