NBC Terror Expert on Paris: This Seems To Be Ratcheting It Down, Not Ratcheting It Up (RealClearPolitcs)

On MSNBC this afternoon, NBC terrorism expert Evan Kohlmann said the terror attack in Paris today seems to signal terror organizations are "ratcheting it up" and not "ratcheting it down."

Kohlmann was very doubtful that these terrorists who had an elaborate escape plan are connected to any major terror group like al Qaeda and ISIS.

"It is not clear these individuals are operating under orders or guidance or instructions from anyone, other than what's in their own heads," Kohlmann surmised.
