  • In February 2015, FBI Director, James Comey, referred to the ISIS as a "chaotic spider web" that uses social media to radicalize people across the U.S.

    He disclosed that there were investigations underway in all 50 states into people at different stages of radicalization.

    The FBI director observed that ISIS's slick propaganda "resonates with troubled souls, people seeking meaning in some horribly misguided way."
