[NYPost] President B.O. says don't worry, the Orlando terrorist was just another "lone actor" operating in isolation, unconnected to any larger group of supporters. In fact, these so-called "lone wolves" are running in packs, and suggesting otherwise gives the public a false sense of security.
| In fact, suspects in all but a handful of the roughly 90 ISIS terror cases prosecuted in America since 2014 were part of a group of up to 10 co-conspirators who met in person to discuss their plans or who made contact via text messaging or e-mail, Rooters found in a recent review of Justice Department case files. |
Yet Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson echoed Obama, saying Omar Mateen was "self-radicalized" without any religious, ideological or operational support from friends, family or others in the Moslem community.
"What we do know at this point is it appears this was a case of self-radicalization," Johnson said. "He does not appear to have been part of any group." |
