ISIS Threats Continue; Lauren Bush; 9th



            On Thursday, ISIS released a video threatening France, Italy, and the United States. The two men in the video, believed to be ISIS fighters, threaten to blow up the White House, continue to attack Paris, and even mention a "conquest of Rome".
        Threat videos like this are released on the daily. Just this Wednesday, ISIS sent warnings to New York City. But the New York City Police Department refused to be intimidated, stating that, "While there is no current or specific threat to the city at this time, we will remain at a heightened state of vigilance and will continue to work with the FBI, the Joint Terrorism Task Force and the entire intelligence community to keep the city of New York safe."
           ISIS has grown to a powerful and global issue, and has been a controversial topic in the 2016 presidential elections. People want to put an end to this terror, and they are looking for a president that can do just that.

    This is so scary. I agree that the people need to look to candidates that will take the means necessary to stop these threats.

  2. Oh gosh, I haven't heard about this yet. It is very scary to think that they are going to come over to the US.

  3. I hadn't heard about this either. I'm glad to know now though so I am more informed. I completely agree though.
