Washington (CNN)ISIS has the capability to stage a Paris-style attack in the U.S. using local cells to strike in multiple locations and inflict dozens of casualties, according to the Obama administration's top U.S. intelligence official. "They do have that capacity," Director of National Intelligence James Clapper told CNN's Peter Bergen in an exclusive interviews on "AC 360" on terrorism, Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda's most virulent offshoot -- ISIS.

"That's something we worry about a lot in the United States, that they could conjure up a raid like they did in Paris or Brussels," where March attacks on a train and at an airport left 32 dead and 300 people injured, Clapper said. The November Paris attacks killed at least 130.

Not surprised. Open borders, millions of illegals here already, welfare abundantly available, islam a protected ideology and a muzz in the mud hut. What could possibly go wrong?

What’s not to wonder about it? Obama and his government are fast-tracking each and every Muslim Terrorist allowed into this country under the guise of ‘refugee’. He is even giving them priority for government entitlements over American citizens.

James Clapper is a known liar and no friend to liberty.

I’d take anything he says with a grain of salt.

They’re just waiting for a Republican to be in the White House so Democrats can point the finger at Trump as the reason for the attacks.

Its been in the wings now for years. Just waiting for their big Muslim buddy to leave office.

Anyone Obama selects is no friend of liberty. Not one person in his entire administration is a champion of freedom.

Please, someone que "Captain Obvious".

Given Obama's complete deriliction of his primary duty to protect America and its CITIZENS, his abdication of our southern border and his direct orders for ICE and our border patrol agents NOT TO ENFORCE THE LAW, ISIS most cerainly has a multitude of "sleeper cells" and agents already "in country" and it is most certainly just a matter of time before they carry out attacks here.

When (not if) these attacks take place, the blame for the death and carnage should be directly laid at his feet and at the feet of everyone of the minions within his so-called, utterly vile and corrupt "administration" as well as his gutless democRAT and RINO Republican enablers.

Wow, top intel analyst, he’s a smart guy. Nothing an observant person didn’t know already.
