At the Center for Strategic and International Studies Global Security Forum Monday, Central Intelligence Agency Director John O. Brennan said he doesn’t think the Nov. 13 terrorist attack in Paris was the only Islamic State attack “in the pipeline.” “I certainly would not consider it a one-off event,” Brennan said. “It is clear to me that ISIS has an external agenda, that they are determined to carry out these types of attacks … it’s not just Europe. I think we here in the United States also have to be quite vigilant.”
