Leaked document reveals the staggering breadth of domestic terrorist activity -- and the administration's cover-up.The Obama administration has been concealing the staggering breadth of terrorist activity in the United States – quantified as close to 8,000 terrorist encounters in a recent year -- a leaked government report suggests. There are disturbing parallels between the Obama administration’s ongoing cover-up of the true extent of terrorist operations in the U.S. and its election season cover-up four years ago of the real causes of the Benghazi, Libya terrorist attack on Sept. 11, 2012. Remember that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton publicly lied four...

Religious muslim woman making terrorist threats at LAX FBI has been called and homeland security she talks to me on camera so happy i can help the FBI

Newly obtained congressional data shows hundreds of terror plots have been stopped in the U.S. since 9/11 – mostly involving foreign-born suspects, including dozens of refugees. The files are sure to inflame the debate over the Obama administration’s push to admit thousands more refugees from Syria and elsewhere, a proposal Donald Trump has vehemently opposed on the 2016 campaign trail. “[T]hese data make clear that the United States not only lacks the ability to properly screen individuals prior to their arrival, but also that our nation has an unprecedented assimilation problem,” Sens. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., and Ted Cruz, R-Texas, told...

A Southwest Missouri woman said to be a "well known person in the ISIS Twitter scene ," was arrested on Thursday after making threats to FBI agents, and posting personal information about them, as well as United States Army, Navy, Air Force and State Department employees on social media. She also posted a threatening photo of President Obama and tweeted that a female media personality "would be better off without her head." According to the complaint affidavit, Safya Roe Yassin, 38, of Buffalo, Missouri, maintained dozens of Twitter and Facebook accounts where she posted pro-Islamic State propaganda and threatening...

There is growing concern on Capitol Hill that a recent spike in the number of foreigners arrested in the United States on terrorism charges is the result of a flawed Obama administration immigration policy that will grant residence to around 170,000 individuals from Muslim-majority nations in the coming year, according to conversations with lawmakers and congressional sources. With the indictment last week of two Iraqi refugees who allegedly conspired with ISIS, a number of lawmakers are now warning that poor screening methods and an administration plan to boost immigration will endanger national security.

Canada will introduce new anti-terror laws that will make it a crime to promote terrorism against Canadians online or elsewhere, a senior government official said Friday. The laws will also allow anyone suspected of being involved in a terror plot to be detained without charge for up to seven days, and empower Canada’s spy agency to thwart attacks directly in a significant expansion of their mandate. The official provided details to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak ahead of Friday’s announcement. …

Andrea Mitchell on Friday landed an exclusive interview with Chicago slumlord Valerie Jarrett to discuss terrorist threats against the United States, as well as the resignation of her close friend Attorney General Eric Holder. It was a very enlightening interview. “I have nothing new to report,” Jarrett said when asked about reported threats to U.S. subway systems. Mitchell asked about President Obama’s speech at the United Nations earlier this week. It was a very important speech, Jarrett said. “It was a very strong, powerful speech,” she said. “It was a very constructive and important week, and the speech sent a...

America is al-Qaeda’s primary target for car bombs, specifically Washington, New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles, according to the latest issue of Inspire, a slick online English-language magazine published by the global terrorist organization.

"We’re waiting for the next 9/11 to happen, because it’s not a question of if. It’s a question of when.” I believe these dry runs are just probes for weaknesses in our burdensome, illogical security apparatus. There’s a plan a foot, no doubt. As for the group of four “Middle Eastern” men that caused a commotion, methinks they worked for Hamas-CAIR and were “probing” for a lawsuit. “The TSA doesn’t want the flying public to be aware of the problems with terrorist probes.” The media doesn’t want to cover or report on jihad here or abroad. The Obama administration denies...

Abstract The Heritage Foundation has tracked post-9/11 terrorist plots against the United States in an effort to study the evolving nature of the threat and to garner lessons learned. The best way to protect the United States from terrorism is to ensure a strong and capable domestic counterterrorism enterprise—and to understand the continuing nature of the terror threat. The Boston Marathon bombing was the 59th publicly known terror plot against the United States since 9/11. In a political environment of sequestration on the one hand, and privacy concerns on the other, there are those on both sides of the aisle...

The son of Omar Abdel Rahman, a Jama’a al-Islamiya leader known as the “Blind Sheikh” who was convicted of terrorism charges in the US in 1995, threatened to organize a protest at the US Embassy in Cairo and detain the employees inside. Abdallah Abdel Rahman’s threat came during a press conference organized by the sheikh’s family near the highly fortified American embassy compound on Thursday evening. Abdel Rahman demanded that President Mohamed Morsy intervene for the release of his father as he did in the case of Egyptian journalist Shaimaa Adel who was detained for nearly two weeks for covering...

VANCOUVER – Thousands of police will keep watch over the Vancouver Winter Olympics but the first line of defence against potential threats at the events themselves will be private security screeners, many with no previous experience. Spectators heading into venues will go through airport-style screening – walking through the familiar metal detectors, perhaps followed by a once-over with a scanning wand while their bags go through an X-ray machine. On the other end of those security devices – in what is likely the biggest security operation in Canadian history outside of wartime – will be 5,000 employees of Contemporary Security...

MUNICH, Germany (AFP) – "Maybe the terrorists should come down and have a drink with us," suggested Bob Kalman, as he enjoyed a beer in one of the huge tents at Germany's world-famous Oktoberfest in Munich this week. "It might solve a few of the world's problems if people got talking," the 30-year-old marketing manager originally from the Scottish city of Glasgow, now looking very German in his lederhosen, told AFP. A string of threats against Germany by Islamic militants in the run-up to last Sunday's general election has prompted security to be stepped up around the country, including at...

Homeland Security: Beware instability in Middle East, Africa The terrorism threat to the United States over the next five years will be driven by instability in the Middle East and Africa, persistent challenges to border security and increasing Internet savvy, says a new intelligence assessment obtained by The Associated Press. Chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear attacks are considered the most dangerous threats that could be carried out against the U.S. But those threats are also the most unlikely because it is so difficult for al-Qaida and similar groups to acquire the materials needed to carry out such plots, according to...

Political strategist raises specter of attacks in U.S. if military pulls back abroad ALLIANCE - Presidential confidant Karl Rove painted a bleak picture Wednesday of what would happen if the United States walked away from the global war on terror.``We are foolish if we think we can turn away from this threat and draw inward, and they will not come,'' President Bush's chief political strategist told an audience of about 400 at the Mount Union Theater.``If we lose, they will follow,'' he said.Rove's appearance brought out about 25 protesters, who walked in front of the theater prior to the speech...

BERLIN (Reuters) - The U.S. embassy in Germany said on Friday it was boosting security at its facilities in response to what it described as an increased threat of terrorism there. Neither U.S. nor German officials would provide specific details, but one diplomat said the steps were taken to guard against a particular threat and a newspaper reported that Iraqi-linked militants were scouting U.S. facilities in Germany. "U.S. diplomatic and consular facilities in Germany are increasing their security posture," the embassy said in a statement sent by email. "We are taking these steps in response to a heightened threat situation....
