Pompeo vows fight on 'Islamic radical terrorism' after Sri Lanka attacks
2019-04-23
[AlAhram] Secretary of State Mike Pompeo vowed Monday that the United States will keep fighting "radical Islamic terror" after devastating attacks in Sri Lanka that targeted churches on Easter and hotels.

"Radical Islamic terror remains a threat. We are continuing to do real work against these evil human beings," Pompeo told news hounds.

"This is America's fight, too," added Pompeo, who said he had spoken by telephone with Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe.

Asked if the threat showed the continued risks from the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group, Pompeo said the United States had succeeded in destroying the movement's self-styled caliphate in Syria but needed to "remain active and vigilant" around the world.

"Sadly, this evil exists in the world," he said.
