ISIS plot to blow up Virginia malls: Cops increase security after warning that terror group is plotting attack just miles from nation's capitol UPDATE: Afghan refugees involved?
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Cops in Northern Virginia have been warned by ISIS of a potential threat at malls and shopping centers, according to Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin Davis

  • Increased law enforcement will continue through Halloween weekend and into Tuesday - Election Day - when McAuliffe and Youngkin compete for governor

  • Officers were already reportedly patrolling the area around Fair Oaks Mall, which is located 20miles outside of Washington, DC

  • Earlier this week Department of Homeland Security's intelligence chief John Cohen said ISIS wants individuals to act on their own in lone-wolf attacks

  • US intelligence agencies also said they believe the Islamic State in Afghanistan could develop the capability to attack the United States in as little as six months

  • The worrisome announcements come after the rapid end of America's 20-year war, which resulted in the death of 13 US troops killed in an ISIS-K suicide attack

#2 Why would ultra-religious Muslims target northern Virginia? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

#3 Could security issues associated with this threat be used to call for extended/relaxed election rules to allow McAuliffe's people to line up votes they look to need?

#10 Seriously? "False flag"?

Because it's so hard to believe Afghan "refugees" are Muslim fanatics?

I'm so sick of the way the right is thinking and acting like the left.

#11 A studio tour! The desire
Of each good American! [choir]
The guests, as they passed,
Were forever aghast,
For the Reichstag was always on fire.
