State Department Issues Worldwide Travel Alert For US Citizens

WASHINGTON (WJZ) — The U.S. State Department has alerted all citizens of possible risks of travel due to increased terrorist threats.

Current information suggests that ISIL, Al Qaeda, Boko Haram and other terrorist groups are planning attacks in multiple regions.
These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics, using conventional and non-conventional weapons and targeting both official and private interests. This Travel Alert expires on February 24, 2016.

Additionally, there is a continuing threat from unaffiliated persons planning attacks inspired by major terrorist organizations but conducted on an individual basis. Extremists have targeted large sporting events, theatres, open markets, and aviation services. In the past year, there have been multiple attacks in France, Nigeria, Denmark, Turkey, and Mali. ISIL has claimed responsibility for the bombing of a Russian airliner in Egypt.

U.S. citizens should exercise vigilance when in public places or using transportation. Be aware of immediate surroundings and avoid large crowds or crowed places. Exercise particular caution during the holiday season and at holiday festivals or events.

Obama is gaining in his goal to turn us into a 3rd world country. Remember what he said, "I will fundamentally transform America". Well, are all you Democrats happy now? Democrats are dumber than fishing worms.

This can't be true; Obama just said ISIS is contained!

Thank you Mr Obama for what results from us letting you run this country for nearly 8 years. The dog catcher has more to show.

There would be no ISIS if Bush and company had not invaded Iraq and killed Saddam Hussein. Dictators keep the radicals under control.

Why only to February 24th. Easter and St. Paddy's Day fall within two weeks of one another only three weeks after the 24th. Does the State Department have something against the Irish or Catholics?

Steve, are they radicals now or maybe workplace violence. I can't keep track of how Obama classifies them since it changes so much.
