The world was shocked this week after terror network ISIS-K carried out an attack in Moscow, Russia. Islamist extremists attacked a concert hall, killing a reported 137 civilians.
ISIS-K is the same group responsible for the Kabul attack in 2021, that killed 13 U.S. troops. They have gained power in Afghanistan, thanks to President Biden’s hasty and botched withdrawal.
As the world assesses the horrors of the Moscow attack, a Republican senator is speaking out. As terrorists gain power around the world, and the U.S. border is neglected by the president, he made this sobering prediction.
From The Post Millennial:
On Sunday, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) expressed concern that ISIS-K, the branch of the terrorist group in Afghanistan, could execute a terrorist attack on US soil…“… I’m deeply worried that ISIS from Afghanistan will end up targeting Americans sooner rather than later.” …
Cotton added that what happened at the Crocus City Hall concert in Moscow “was the unfortunate echo of President Biden’s chaotic and disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.”
Republican Sen. Tom Cotton warned that, with the rise of ISIS-K around the world, he fears an attack on U.S. soil. He has become even more worried after this group staged a horrific attack at the Crocus City Hall in Moscow.
ISIS-K gained power after Biden let Afghanistan fall to the Taliban. The Taliban and ISIS-K have fought over control of the country. Both have gained a foothold after Biden pulled U.S. troops from the region.
Cotton went on to say that while it might take “longer” for an attack to reach the U.S. homeland, he feared for the many Americans who travel abroad. He explained that there are “millions of Americans” who live or travel through Europe and Asia—not to mention those who work at U.S. embassies.
The Republican knows that terror networks often target Americans overseas, knowing they are vulnerable. They often prefer to hold them hostage, in hopes of a large ransom.
Cotton blamed Biden’s “chaotic and disastrous” moves in Afghanistan for this crisis. It is yet another major concern facing Americans, thanks to this president. Since Biden’s taken office, global peace has deteriorated. Terrors have launched attacks worldwide and war explodes.
Yet Biden refuses to take responsibility for his role in these crises.
Key Takeaways:
- Republican Sen. Tom Cotton warned ISIS-K could stage an attack on the U.S.
- This comes after the terror group killed 137 civilians in Russia.
- Cotton blamed President Biden’s failed Afghanistan withdrawal for this threat.
