The Chairman of the House Committee on Homeland Security Chairman Michael McCaul is concerned that a wave of attacks by jihadis with American passports could occur in the Unites States in the near future.
“Our investigation will include how are we identifying Americans over there and how are we stopping the travel back into the United States,” McCaul told The Daily Caller. “In other words, how can we keep them off airplanes? Are we doing that adequately enough? We are doing it currently, but the question is how well and efficiently are we doing it?”
McCaul discussed the similarities to the terrorists with French citizenship who committed the deadly acts in Paris this week. He said, “They are different than the guys radicalizing over the internet. These are clearly foreign fighters trained and came back to Western Europe and France,” he said. “We’re very concerned about that happening in the United States. My committee is going to launch an investigation into foreign fighters so we can stop this from happening here in the United States.”

http://dailycaller.com/2015/01/10/homeland-security-chair-america-at-high-risk-for-wave-of-paris-style-attacks/All the news stations are conditioning people for the fear factor and trying to get more funding for national defense and homeland security, as if these outfits are hurting for money to begin with. I just hope the boobs aren't falling for it esp in the GOP. I'd hate to see a re-emergence and strengthening of the neocon brigade at the expense of the libertarian republicanism that is and was trending in recent times.
