Feinstein on AQAP Bombs Coming to America
Senate Intelligence Committee chairwoman Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) warned that the U.S. faces threats at home not just from ISIL but from al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP). In fact, she said, AQAP has “a bomb that goes through magnetometers” and they have “tried to get four of those on different occasions into our country.” As for ISIL, she said they “have killed thousands, they are marching on, they have an army, they’re well-organized. Many of us believe they’re aimed at Baghdad, perhaps our embassy there, and who knows what else.” Feinstein seems to be taking the threat more seriously than the commander in chief at the moment.
