Mall of America Targeted
Al Qaeda-linked terrorist group Al Shabaab has taken the terror game up a notch by calling for attacks on Western malls. The Somalia-based Islamic terrorists have specifically vowed to target the Mall of America in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the largest mall in the United States. “I’m very concerned about the serious potential threat of independent actors here in the United States,” says Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson. “So through our intelligence bulletins, through working with state and local law enforcement, through working with the FBI, we take this kind of thing very seriously.”
