Senator Inhofe warns of potential terrorist attacks on U.S. soil
2014-08-23
[OKCFOX] It is a serious warning coming from Oklahoma Senator Jim Inhofe as he warns of the potential of another attack on American soil. The senator sat down with Fox 25 to talk about a variety of topics, but as ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, the top issue was national security.

"We're in the most dangerous position we've ever been in as a nation," Senator Inhofe told Fox 25's Phil Cross.

"ISIS, they are really bad terrorists, they're so bad even Al Qaeda is afraid of them," Inhofe said reflecting on the recent beheading of American journalist James Foley. Beyond the beheading, Inhofe said the current terror organizations are not going to stay contained to the Middle East. "They're crazy out there and they're rapidly developing a method of blowing up a major U.S. city and people just can't believe that's happening."

Inhofe blames policy decisions from the B.O. regime and cuts in defense spending for putting the country in what he calls a dangerous situation.

"He's [President B.O.] going to have to come up with something that we're going to do because they're holding another hostage in place and the problem is, the President says all these things and he never does them," Inhofe said.

Inhofe said he hopes after the mid-term elections there will be more Republicans in the Senate and more of a willingness for both parties to work on restoring cuts to defense spending.
