The Hill: FBI: No credible terror threat, despite ISIS videos
The FBI has not detected any “credible” threat to American national security, Director James Comey said on Thursday, days after the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) issued threats against Washington and as the country grapples with the terror group's reach.
“We are not aware of any credible threat here of a Paris-type attack and we have seen no connection at all between the Paris attackers and the United States,” Comey told reporters on Thursday.
“ISIL and its supporters put out all types of propaganda, like videos and magazines,” he added, using an alternate acronym for ISIS. “But that is not credible intelligence.”

WNU Editor,
Wasn't the FBI all panicking yesterday about terrorist threats and actions over the holidays, and we should be all afeared, stock up on food, water and ammo, then duct tape ourselves in our houses,........
But today, there's no threat?
Gee, it's almost like either they don't have a clue, or, they are just hyping the fear.
Yup ... pure panic yesterday. Today .... everything is awesome. I guess someone sent them a memo.
I'm more afraid of my daughter's driving than I am of a terrorist attack.
WNU Editor,
I'm guessing that George Lucas sent them a memo pointing out that holding yesterday's press conference from under the bed, while wearing diapers,
Was hurting the forecasted gate for the Star Wars opening.
U.S.A. to el Chihuahua: "Little Wahabbi, I am your father."
el Chihuahua: "No, that's impossible! Well...OK...but it'll be our little secret until after your infidel Christmas. I got a gig as Santa's elf at the Mall of America while this Paris thing blows over. And here I was wondering how my work visa application process was so smooth."
"By the way Pop, will there be a pair of Air Jordan's under the tree for me?"
U.S.A. "Ho Ho Ho! Sure Son. The whitest pair we can find. They'll be in the next airdrop between the TOWs, Toyota parts, TBC hair activator and doo rags C/O Santa Saudi. How bout a phone as a flip flop stuffer?"
el Chihuahua: "Geez Pop, that'd be swell! 250 whole minutes...."
