General Jack Keane: ISIS Will Be Headed for Jordan and Lebanon Next, Eventually America

‘Is ISIS eventually a threat to the United States and its security? I would say overwhelmingly yes’

Keane: ISIL a Threat to U.S. (Washington Free Beacon)

The terrorist organization ISIL is a threat to the United States, ret. Gen. Jack Keane told Fox News Monday, and some military intervention “sooner rather than later” would be necessary for national security.

Keane said flatly that ISIL, which has marched through Iraq in recent weeks threatening to topple the entire country, is not a sectarian organization but rather a geo-political one driven by an ideology to take back and dominate Muslim lands.

“Is ISIL a threat to our interest in the Middle East, in the region itself? Is ISIL eventually a threat to the United States and its security?” he asked. “I would say overwhelmingly yes.”
