[WATCH] CIA Insider: Expect a Similar Sydney-Type Attack in United States

CBS this morning interviewed former CIA Director Mike Morell to discuss the hostage situation in Sydney, Australia.

He explained that Australia was targeted because they are a partner of the west, and they are a coalition partner now in the fight against ISIS.

Morell said:

We are going to see this kind of terrorism around the world and we are going to to see it here. Nora, we are going to see this kind of attack here, and we need to be prepared for that. It shouldn’t suprise people when this kind of thing happens here, some time over the next year or so, guaranteed.

If they’re quiet about it, it’s very easy to carry out something like this, he added.
