GOP Rep: Over 100 Americans Fighting with ISIS Could Return to Attack US

Friday on Newsmax TV’s “America’s Forum,” Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA) said ISIS has the “potential” to attack the United States because there are “well over a hundred” Americans and Europeans with passports currently fighting with ISIS who could come back and attack the “homeland.”

Wolf said, “There are over 115 Americans, American citizens with passports, who are part of ISIS, and there are several thousand Europeans from France, from England, from Germany, from Scandinavian countries, who are fighting with ISIS.” 

He added, “In fact one of them who went over to fight was from Florida, came back, went back, said hateful things on the Internet, and was killed in a suicide bombing. So this has potential to come to the homeland.”
