Tuesday's bombings in Brussels left at least 31 people dead and 300 wounded. They are the latest additions to an increasingly long list of casualties from attacks across the breadth of Europe. Paris, Ankara and Istanbul have all been similarly targeted in the past five months.
But the United States has yet to see such a sophisticated ISIS attack, with trained fighters and direction from the organization's leadership.
It's not that it couldn't happen here, but military, law enforcement and other security-focused officials agree that it's much less likely. As Secretary of Defense Ash Carter told CNN's Carol Costello on Wednesday, "We don't have them (terrorists) here in the United States in anything like the numbers they do in Europe."

Have you been to Fairfax, VA? Muslims in Fairfax tend to be well-educated and tend not to be radicalized like the European Muslims.
Agreed.
The reason that the "American Muslim communities are more integrated" is because there are fewer of them. Even so, their few numbers still cause problems (911, Fort Hood, San Bernadino, Merced, etc).
And our Government Leaders are still set on importing more of this cancer.
My town is about 17% Mohammedan, first and second generation. Their proportion of welfare use and involvement in crime pales compared to that of the local representatives of the Founders’ gene pool. On the contrary, they work hard in their businesses or for others, the women raise their children and the kids are graduating from high school and going on to college at a very high rate.
Many of us thought the world was ending when they arrived, mostly under Bush. We were wrong. They are part of our community and are “OK”.
The biggest difference in the Euro countries... is while they took them in out of guilt... Each of these countries is very nationalistic culturally and bigoted. Class differences exist in a very different way. You inherit the legacy of who your parents are. US culture is “live and let live” ... don’t bother me and I won’t bother you. Your success is not inherited. I have many “liberal” friends and family members all over Europe... all of them are Pro-immigration/ helping the poor refugees. Do they want these people living next door? nope. They’re more than happy when they end up in their ghettos and neighborhoods.
Obama wants us to catch up.
That's one out of three for "European cities".
Idiot.
Straight up higher percentage of muslims. That is all you need to know. The more muslims the less safe anyone is.
