Buck Sexton Live From the Scene at the Attempted Terrorist Attack in New York

What happened?

Terror struck Manhatten again but thankfully there were only a few minor injuries and a major tragedy was averted. A man from Bangladesh strapped a pipe bomb to a suicide vest which detonated early, avoiding any type of major damage. Fortunately, the suspect wasn’t a skilled bomb maker, and most the bomb’s force went into the suspect himself who is now in custody.

On the scene…

Glenn welcomed former CIA agent and radio host Buck Sexton on radio Monday who called in live on his way to the scene.

“So when you see the meme that was sent out from ISIS with Santa in the — in Times Square, “We’re going to visit New York soon,” is that something that you think or authorities think that we are looking for direct ISIS participation in? Or is that just to inspire people to do what this guy did?” Glenn asked.

“You know, it’s tough with this one. I wrote about this on the Hill a couple of weeks ago because there was so much jihadist chatter. And there were so many different people — so many different memes and threats out there. There have been — in true ISIS chat forums, there have been threats against the Vatican, the British royal family. Times Square. There’s a whole bunch of them that have come out in the last month or so. Which is not unusual,” Buck answered.

“But the problem with Islamic State threats, especially when they make it into certain channels, is they tend to make good on them. It might take them a year. It might take them two.”
