Terror threat

A lone wolf but very focused

Lone wolf terrorism not on the rise, but police, military personnel are top targets, report says. Most ‘lone wolf’ terrorism in the US is perpetrated by “single white males with criminal record,” according to recently released report by Indiana State University. “Compared to members of terrorist groups, lone wolves are older, less educated and more prone to mental illness.”The study, as reported by  Fierce Homeland Security, found 98 cases fitting the description of lone wolf terrorists between 1940 to 2013 – with a majority of the cases occurring after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
