<p>U.S. Deputy Attorney General Lisa Monaco said during an interview over the weekend that more than 100 federal investigations have been opened in recent months that stem from Hamas&#8217; October 7 terrorist attack against Israel.</p>
<p>Monaco made the remarks during a Sunday ABC News interview on &#8220;This Week&#8221; with Pierre Thomas.</p>
<p>&#8220;I think we are in a very, very challenging threat environment,&#8221; she said. &#8220;During 9/11 our focus was on sophisticated plots driven by foreign terrorist organizations with catastrophic effect. Today I think we&#8217;re in a unique moment where what we&#8217;re most worried about are individuals or small groups who are often radicalized online and who are motivated by and influenced by a range of ideologies from foreign terrorism and foreign terrorist organizations to domestic grievances.&#8221;</p>
<p>She said that federal law enforcement officials are seeing foreign terrorist organizations pushing for their supporters in the U.S. and throughout the West to take action into their own hands and conduct lone wolf terror attacks.</p>
<p>She also said that some individuals and small groups are taking &#8220;twisted inspiration from conflict overseas and from the very searing images that we’re seeing that came out of the brutal, brutal terrorist attacks that occurred on October 7th.&#8221;</p>
<p>Monaco said that there has been an explosion in violence and violent threats against the Jewish community and that there have been nearly 2,000 reports that the FBI has followed up on. Out of those reports, more than 100 criminal investigations have been opened.</p>
