How Hillary Clinton Says the US Can Stop Domestic Terrorism
- 8 years ago
Just hours before the latest GOP presidential primary debate, Hillary Clinton will lay out her strategy for counterterrorism during remarks today on the campus at the University of Minnesota - Minneapolis.
Clinton's strategy will include shutting down the terrorist network's recruitment efforts online, stopping would-be jihadists from getting training overseas, preventing foreign fighters from coming into the U.S., discovering plots before they can be carried out and supporting law enforcement officers who respond to such attacks, according to a campaign official.
The release of Clinton's plan comes nearly one month after the former secretary of state delivered a speech at the Center on Foreign Relations in New York City, where she laid out a broader strategy to defeat and destroy ISIS - including a call for social media companies in Silicon Valley to play a larger role in combating the terrorist group online.
