In light of threats from ISIS, the security level at U.S. military bases has been raised the highest level since the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.

...

Meanwhile, the FBI is admitting there are potentially "thousands" of ISIS sympathizers living in the U.S. and possibly willing to carry out attacks.

The corrupt pentagon cares about base security about as much as politicians and school boards care about school security.

If the mercenary FBI traitors are guarding military bases, look for increased casualties. Why not arm military personnel to take of themselves?

Our bases need hardened checkpoints with loaded M2 .50 cals at the ready. ISIS uses armored vbied’s on checkpoints.

How are they going to do that? When all our secret organizations have been penetrated by the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD. Just check it out. The FBI, CIA, DIA, NSA, and all the police training organizations have been under the watchful eye of the MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD. And anything concerning MUSLIMS, JIHAD, and their teachings have been completely erased from the training. In their present training, a Muslim cannot be tracked, because that would be considered “PROFILING”. These “POLITICALLY CORRECT” people in Washington have completely disarmed our investigative agencies.

LOL! I think this Chris Cuomo should study that. And if you’ll notice he said “condemn Muslims for violence”. He didn’t say “condemn peaceful Muslims for violence committed by radical Muslims” he said ALL Muslims, don’t condemn “Muslims for violence”. So he’s asking us to accept their violence, lay down and let them kill us all because of the crusades LOL! Just one more example how whacked in the head liberals are.

“it’s deemed perfectly safe to have a thousand ISIS members”

he said potentially “thousands” - is it 2,000? 100,000?

The threat has never been against bases - think of other places with dozens of unarmed military personnel. The recruiting headquarters, stations and MEPS facilities have always been the biggest worry, and the Pentagon hasn’t done diddly squat to secure them. Two years after 9/11, we were told the government-contracted cleaning crews for those facilities hadn’t even been vetted, and most workers spoke no English. The contracts were for six years and there was nothing the government could do until those contracts expired.

Military bases need to upgrade their security. I consider most military bases to be soft targets.
