US Security Advisor: ISIS, Al-Qaeda and Al-Shabaab planning attacks on America
[KhaamaPress] U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz warns that groups like ISIS, al-Qaeda, and al-Shabaab
... the Islamic version of the old Somali warlord...
are planning attacks on America.

U.S. National Security Advisor Mike Waltz warned that terrorist groups like ISIS, al-Qaeda, and al-Shabaab are planning attacks against the United States. He stated these groups have developed "plans and schemes" for potential strikes.

In a TV interview on April 22, Waltz emphasized that these groups are actively working to target the U.S., and the U.S. government has been working to dismantle their leadership. He mentioned that the Trump administration has eliminated 74 known terrorist leaders thus far, though he did not provide specific details about the locations or identities of those targeted.

Waltz highlighted the ongoing importance of Afghanistan in counterterrorism efforts, referencing previous reports by The Washington Post. The National Security Advisor explained that terrorist groups in Afghanistan have been attempting to regroup and plan new attacks, similar to the September 11 attacks.

He also mentioned the successful efforts by the Trump administration in bringing home American citizens detained abroad, including the recent release of two American citizens from Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
prisons. This reflects the administration’s continued focus on countering terrorism and protecting U.S. citizens globally.

While these efforts have been significant, Waltz emphasized the need for continued vigilance. He stressed that the U.S. cannot afford to wait for another attack before taking further preventive actions.

As these threats loom, the U.S. government’s strategic focus remains on preventing terrorist attacks and securing the safety of its citizens. The importance of international cooperation and intelligence-sharing has never been clearer in the fight against terrorism.

Ongoing efforts to dismantle terrorist networks continue to be a priority for the current administration, as it seeks to maintain national security and prevent further tragedies.
