When are our leaders, particularly President Obama, going to address the the issue of Islamic terrorism and the threat to citizens here in the United States?
The response from our leaders to the Chattanooga terror attacks is very similar to the response after other recent attacks - it was a lone wolf or a lone gunman or not part of a larger threat. There have been so many similar attacks since September 11, 2001 that it is easy to forget just how many have taken place and how many Americans have been killed. Below is a list of attacks that have been tied to or suspected to be tied to radical Islam by the FBI or other investigators. Not shown are the too numerous to include plots that have been averted.
The following was compiled from various news sites and Wikipedia.
