2. 2017 terror forecast for US, Europe 'alarming,'
The U.S. and European terror forecast for 2017 'looks alarming,' in part because of increased
pressure on ISIS and other terror groups on their home turf, according to a monthly assessment
House lawmakers.
The House Homeland Security Committee’s February "Terror Threat Snapshot" report cited two
homegrown terror attacks in January and officials predicted efforts to crush foreign terror groups,
while laudable, could spur more attacks to American soil.
"At this rate, the forecast for 2017 looks alarming," warns the report, citing an "unprecedented
in the homegrown terror threat, primarily driven by the rise of ISIS."
