ISIS Recruiting Youth in North Texas Over The Internet
Class, who took over the helm of the Dallas FBI this Spring, told KXAS 5 (NBC) he sees ISIS recruiting aggressively, using social media to reach young people in North Texas. He said that often starts out in the open on popular sites including Facebook and Twitter, but then ISIS recruiters move the conversations to encrypted websites or “go dark” on the internet to places called the “dark web” where technology and U.S. privacy laws limit what agents can do. It makes it harder for the FBI to track.
“It’s the most significant threat to the country, the most significant threat to our national security and it’s the FBI’s top priority,” said Class in comments made to the Dallas NBC affiliate weeks before the ISIS terrorist attack in Paris that left at least 129 dead on November 13. “We have active investigations, counter-terrorism investigations every day.”
Is this happening because not enough ISIS terrorist are being welcomed into the United States ?

I do not believe in calling biased outlets terrorist organizations, even if they technically fall under the literal definition of the word. As for "anti-American", I find that term nonsensical and nonconstructive, since there is no singular "American" identity or affiliation (other than citizenship I suppose). Yes, and they'll find recruits aplenty ready to die for Allah, the big terrorist in the sky. The problem with that is that they will take countless innocent victims with them. Good old Obama, seems he's lost the plot completely. keep them coming, plenty of standing room in the balcony. |
