Islamic State building up for mass-casualty attacks, competing with al Qaeda for recruits, intel
(Worthy News) – Members of the U.S. intelligence community are warning that Islamic State fighters could be working toward mass-casualty attacks, a serious departure from the terror group’s current focus on lone-wolf attacks.
Intelligence officials have typically categorized the Islamic State group’s main tactic as one that is less ambitious, involving one or a small group of attackers armed with simple weapons.
