Former U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) Commander Gen. Frank McKenzie said during an interview over the weekend that the threat that ISIS poses to the U.S. homeland is becoming serious because of President Joe Biden’s foreign policy.
McKenzie made the remarks during a Sunday interview on ABC News’ “This Week” with Martha Raddatz, where he was asked about the recent ISIS terrorist attack in Moscow.
“General, your CENTCOM successor, General Michael Kurilla, said just days before the Moscow attack that ISIS-K, quote,’retains the capability and will to attack U.S. and Western interests abroad in as little as six months and with little or no warning’,” Raddatz said.
“What’s your confidence in that intelligence?” she asked.
“I think General Kurilla is spot on with that assessment,” McKenzie responded. “Here’s the problem. Again, we go back to ISIS-K. If you can keep pressure on them that they’re in their homeland and their base, it makes it hard for them to conduct these types of attacks.”
