Local professors think travel advisory for Americans makes sense

((Excerpt))

The warning makes sense, said Donna Schlagheck, chair of Wright State University’s Political Science Department.

Operatives of Al Qaeda or even a “lone wolf” individual may attempt a terrorist attack in an attempt to demonstrate the organization’s continued relevance, she said. Attempts against airlines and flights are a possibility. “Those are going to be the very big visibility targets if people want to conduct a revenge attack,” she said.
