The move, which the Pentagon said was conducted at President Donald Trump's direction, comes amid heightened tensions between the U.S. and Iran, and the strike could ratchet up the conflict.
In November, a New York City man who considered himself a"sleeper agent" of Hezbollah, Iran's state-sponsored terrorist organization,Federal prosecutors said at the time that Ali Kourani was"recruited, trained and deployed by Hezbollah’s Islamic Jihad Organization" to plan and execute terror attacks around New York City, although none were carried out.
Neither the Los Angeles Police Department nor the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has taken any step beyond its annual New Year's deployment increase, officials said. But they are in communication with local, state and federal partners.
Laurie_Garrett One does realize that intelligence is irrelevant to trump and to trump's administration, including the GOP, when it comes to betraying our nation and risking American lives.
Next there will be domestic 'terrorist attacks', then Trump declares martial law and is dictator of the United States of America.
Translation: “Most Americans knew Trump acted unilaterally and unconstitutionally in declaring war as a distraction from his impeachment...but the media failed to report it”.
NatPoliceAssoc Support your troops, support your police.
Drunk partisan, nonsensical headline. Translation: “Law enforcement isn’t planning to do anything because there isn’t anything to do because no one is doing anything. BUT, if someone seems like they might do anything, law enforcement will do something.”
FLASH: Iran's Khomeini has declared there will be a massive response. It is war. Good luck to all of our boys about to put there boots on the ground
I want to work from home tomorrow. Shit.
Great, MORE oppression of our brown and black brothers and sisters.
Chaos everywhere is better than Urkranian announcing investigation into B.Biden. BeauDontCare TrumpMustGo
Is this the same intelligence community that informed us that Russia interfered in our elections?......oh, they’re credible now?
Its time to wake up the sleeper cells
We're sooooo much less safe now 🤬
So, Americans are now just pawns in trump's dumb game? I said before he will do anything to get re-elected and get the collective minds off his impeachment. Imagine all of the soldiers' lives we are about to lose.
Afraid too many injured American soldiers might dance?
So intelligence can be trusted and followed now?
in other words Trump has blood on his hands right now
Omg!!!! Unbelievable!!!
What?
This WILL lead to an increase in terrorism against the West. But Trump doesn’t care, it’s grabbed the headlines just nicely.
Yes, I'm sure the reasonable terrorists who haven't acted may act now.
