Ex-CIA Head: ‘I Wouldn’t Be Surprised’ if ISIS Attacks the U.S. This July 4th
Truth Revolt ^ | 6/29/15 | Mark Tapson

Posted on 06/29/2015 6:35:43 PM PDT by markomalley

The Blaze reports that former CIA head Michael Morell said today he “wouldn’t be surprised” if there’s a terrorist attack in the United States over the upcoming Fourth of July weekend.

The FBI and Department of Homeland Security issued a bulletin Friday warning of heightened concerns over potential terrorist attacks during the holiday weekend. ABC News reported that the bulletin said Independence Day could appear to extremists to defame the Prophet Muhammad and would “likely result in threats or plans to conduct violent extremist acts.” The bulletin also warned government and military officials to be cautious of their social media posts over the weekend.

Former CIA Deputy Director Morell told CBS’ This Morning that while such warnings go out routinely, ”there’s nothing routine about this particular one to me.”

I wouldn’t be surprised if we’re sitting here a week from today talking about an attack over the weekend in the United States. That’s how serious this is.

Morell noted that there have been some 50 people arrested in the U.S. within the last year with some tie or allegiance to the Islamic State group, which has also issued a “call to arms” during Ramadan:

There’s a lot of people out there who are seeing themselves as aligned with ISIS. Number two, you have this ISIS call to arms during Ramadan. We are right in the middle of Ramadan, call to arms, conduct attacks against our enemies, so I’m worried about this one.

White House press secretary Josh Earnest said today that there are no credible threats on Fourth of July celebrations this weekend.

Thanks. If they do get around to attacking after an alert, yes. It might be where a crowd is expected in a city or tourist destination. The attack on the World Trade Center was an attack on the economy and an attack on the wealthy. Most of the hard core Islamists, and even their close non-Muslim neighbors, are also commies.

Summer before 9-11 I heard about the chatter, started wearing an American flag every day.

I’m afraid we are going to see repeat real soon.

On the upside of an attack VJ and O can open a bottle of bubbly, then get a few rounds in golfing.

According to the bulletin, wear street clothes, do not engage, just observe and report. Defend if necessary. Of course some think it is a setup by the Feds. From what I have been told, ISIS lost face in their Texas attack. So they have to really up the ante.

Yea my guess is gay marriage really got them going after their failed attack in Texas. Fourth of July just gives them plenty of targets with cover noise.

Scary part of this is with barag and his fellow travelers in charge, what will their reaction be to an attack.
“Never let a crisis to go waste”.
I am more concerned about what our fed gov will do to us than what a foreign attacker will. Just saying.

Short term we have to worry about terrorists, long term we have to worry about politicians.

I’ll be out in the PA mountains, with my adorable wife and sweet daughter.

After the 4th it’s Hershey. So if the Muzzies hit Hershey after the 4th....

Womens open is also that week, south of Hershey. Blast some girl golfers on national TV then off some unarmed Amish to spike the ball.

That would fit their muzzie style.

If it is similar to Dallas attack, it will be homegrown. They probably are not getting direct targets, cause they know the FBI is listening. So the homegrown ones will attack what they know. Been told they are getting money sent to them direct from ISIS.

Beacon Global Strategies, he created that as Hillary’s private CIA after he orchestrated the creation of Isis for her and Obama while he was director of CIA and ran the whole Syria war.

If Michael Morell says Isis will strike 4th of July weekend, take it to the bank. He is a major puppeteer of Isis for Clintons and Jarrett. Has Obama full support.

Whatever strike occurs, count on these progressives giving full US false flag support and then exploiting it to the max.

Watch Communist Jeh Johnson take a page from Stalin or Mao as Homeland Security responds.

These twerps are too predictable now. Communist creeps.

The Rainbow house is begging for us to get get hit. They import half a million mohamadans a year to feed the radical recruiting machine. There are so many here now, they can’t stop the next hit.

Tragic. The Rainbow House is disgusting.

Like I said in another thread, Obama has mounted his Unicorn backwards and is trying to eat skittles coming out its butt. He has no idea where the Unicorn is taking him. Also he has no idea the Unicorn is not pooping skittles. Or as Putin said, it is like playing chess with a pigeon.

Morrell was the guy who CHANGED THE TALKING POINTS TO THE VIDEO. This man is a rich and famous criminal. He’s also very firmly in the Hillary camp.

Does he give speeches in Arab countries for $500,000 a pop?
