Rising Foreign Terror Threats in U.S. Amid Israel-Hamas War: FBI Chief's Unsettling Warning

A joint intelligence report from the Departments of Homeland Security and Justice warns of an increased risk of foreign terror threats in the U.S. during the holiday season, citing the ongoing Israel-Hamas war as a potential catalyst. The report highlights the likelihood of churches, synagogues, and the Jewish community being primary targets. FBI Director Christopher Wray testified that the number of threats is at an unprecedented level, with concerns about lone offenders inspired by or reacting to the conflict. While there is no specific or credible threat, the report emphasizes the potential exploitation of civilian casualties in Gaza and the increased presence of U.S. military forces supporting Israel.
