The Los Angeles Police Department has arrested 200 terror-related suspects. (Hat tip: Brenda Walker.)
Previously, LAPD counter-terrorism head John Miller has said there are people affiliated with al-Qaida in Los Angeles who have set up support networks and raised money for attacks.
U.S Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., also warned of the ongoing threat of terrorism during an address she gave Wednesday to the West Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce.
She said that there are thousands of al-Qaida operatives around the world, and many in the state.
“I can’t tell you how many because it’s classified information,” Feinstein said. “But if I told you the number of terrorist cells in this country, you would be shocked.”
And right now, I’m wondering whether some of them were connected with the King Fahd Mosque.
UPDATE: If Dianne Feinstein, of all people, is worried about the number of terrorist cells in the US, we’re in a lot of trouble.
