According to the FBI, Hamas has the capability to launch terror attacks within the United States.
"Of all the Palestinian groups, Hamas has the largest presence in the United States," said FBI Director Robert Mueller, "with a strong infrastructure, primarily focused on fundraising, propaganda for the Palestinian cause, and proselytizing. Although it would be a major strategic shift for Hamas, its United States network is theoretically capable of facilitating acts of terrorism in the United States."
Last month, while testifying to the Senate Select Intelligence Committee, Mueller said the Islamic Jihad was no longer capable of attacking the United States. Mueller said Jihad was hurt by the arrest of its leader Sami Al-Arian and his deputies.
