New York City police chief Bill Bratton is worried about ISIS. So worried, in fact, that he's going to assign 450 New York Police Department cops to fight terrororism that may come from the Islamic State.

“We need to be very concerned about terrorism … The significantly increased threat from ISIS using social media to recruit people not only to go to Syria to fight, but encouraging people … to attack police, to attack government officials, to basically brainwash them under their screwed-up ideology. That threat has expanded significantly in the now 16 months I’ve been police commissioner,” Bratton said on the John Catsimatidis radio show.

Since October 2011, mosques have been off-limits to FBI agents. No more surveillance or undercover string operations without high-level approval from a special oversight body at the Justice Department dubbed the Sensitive Operations Review Committee.

Who makes up this body, and how do they decide requests? Nobody knows; the names of the chairman, members and staff are kept secret.

[yoe]

From what I’ve been reading, New York needs both a new Governor and New York city a new Mayor.

[MeshugeMikey]

I must admit I dont know enough about the current Chief of Police in NYC. to make an accurate asessment of his intentions on this.

[9YearLurker]

If they’re not monitoring the mosques, 450 cops isn’t nearly enough.

“but encouraging people … to attack police, to attack government officials, “ Now we have identified a legitimate threat to ourselves and our masters it is time to increase our power of force. You commoners caught in the middle gotta fend however you can.

You do too know him. He's tall, about 6'4", has a strong Stalin-like walk, has a stern moustache, once dated Monica Geller, and used to be a private investigator in Honolulu, and has that kid who was a sergeant in Easy Company of the 101st Airborne, and that other kid who . . .

Oh, wait.

[MeshugeMikey]

wouldnt...that be....his grand highness emperor De Blasio?

[Gritty]

Doesn't Bratton realize ISIS is the J.V. Team?

Don't worry, Bill. The Muslims we are bring in by the millions just want to be good Americans and become part of our great Melting Pot. I'm sure our Homeland Security has vetted all of them. Besides, our borders are perfectly secure and ISIS won't be able to get within 300 miles of New York City, much less within 300 miles of Baghdad!
