Some Progressives here can't grasp that ISIS is a world-wide problem and that the attack in Paris is connected to American attacks.
FBI: Merced attack was inspired by ISIS
POSTED AT 5:21 PM ON MARCH 18, 2016 BY JOHN SEXTON
The FBI has concluded that Faisal Mohammad, who stabbed four people on the University of California, Merced campus last year, was inspired by ISIS. Mohammad’s attack becomes the 5th ISIS inspired attack on U.S. soil since 2014.
On November 4th, 2015, 18-year-old Faisal Mohammad stabbed four people before he was shot and killed by police responding to the incident. All of the victims of the attack survived. Friday, the FBI announced it had found evidence Mohammad was self-radicalized and likely was inspired by ISIS:
The FBI said Thursday that Faisal Mohammad, 18, had visited websites for ISIS and other terrorist organizations before the attack, concluding that “he may have self-radicalized and drawn inspiration from terrorist propaganda.”
[...]
This is the 5th ISIS inspired attack on the U.S. since 2014. Here, via CNN, are the other four attacks:
In the fall of 2014, authorities said U.S. citizen Zale Thompson attacked four police officers with a hatchet in New York. He was believed to have been self-radicalized. The attack left two police officers wounded, and a civilian was accidentally wounded by bullets fired by officers who killed Thompson.
Seven months later, in May 2015, gunmen said to be inspired by ISIS opened fire in Garland, Texas, outside a cartoon contest featuring images of the Prophet Mohammed. The gunmen,Elton Simpson and Nadir Soofi, wounded a security guard before police shot and killed them
On December 2, Tashfeen Malik and Syed Rizwan Farook killed 14 people and injured 21 others at a gathering of government workers in San Bernardino, California.
In January, a man named Edward Archer shot and wounded Philadelphia police Officer Jesse Hartnett. After his arrest, Archer allegedly told police, “I pledge my allegiance to the Islamic State, and that’s why I did what I did.”
This list does not include two attacks in Canada in 2014. An attack on a Canadian Forces recruiting center in Toronto Monday has not been confirmed as terrorism yet.
