FBI warns of violence in US following anti-Islam video

      A US intelligence bulletin has warned that the violent Muslim outrage aimed at US embassies in the Middle East and other parts of the world in the wake of an anti-Islam movie that mocks Prophet Mohammed, could spread to America. The Joint Intelligence Bulletin issued by the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security said 'the risk of violence could increase both at home and abroad as the film continues to gain attention.' "First responders should remain aware of the potential for spontaneous large crowds and protests that could overwhelm resources and should be vigilant for possible efforts to encourage peaceful protesters to commit acts of violence," the warning said. According to ABC News, the bulletin urged 'faith-based organizations to promptly report suspicious activities that could indicate pre-operational plotting against Jewish, Coptic, Islamic, or any other faith-based communities'. The bulletin warned that 'violent extremist groups in the United States could exploit anger over the film to advance their recruitment efforts.' The bulletin was issued as fresh violence erupted at U.S. embassies in Yemen and Egypt, and the State Department said that 50 overseas missions have been given additional security. It also warned U.S. citizens in their area to be 'extra vigilant,' the report said.
