Ahmed Gaddafi: 'Europe will face a 9/11 within two years’

Colonel Gaddafi’s cousin predicts a '9/11 in Europe within two years,' as Islamic State militants join thousands of migrants beating a path to Europe. His warning comes as Home Secretary Theresa May says Britain’s terror threat is 'grave and growing.'”

Ahmed Gaddafi al-Dam, formerly one of Gadaffi’s most trusted security chiefs, estimates a minimum of 500,000 migrants will make their way from Libya to Europe in 2015, as the Islamic State [IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL] increases its foothold in the North African state. 'There are many terrorists among them, between 10 and 50 in every thousand,' he told the Mail Online. [...] Following his comments, Britain’s Home Secretary Theresa May said Britons continue to face the risk of a terror attack. She added everyone in the UK needs to play their part to help fight the spread of radicalization.”

Considered alarmist by some, Gaddafi al-Dam’s warning will likely alarm Western governments. Following the brutal massacre of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians by IS militants in Sirte, northern Libya, concern is mounting that instability in the region poses a risk to the West. Militants linked to IS have made gains in Libya in recent times, and are thought to have conquered three towns, including Sirte. Gadaffi’s cousin says the Islamic State in Libya could be in possession of over 6,000 barrels of uranium, previously guarded by the state’s armed forces.”
