Though terrorist groups like ISIS and Hamas have gained immense notoriety over the last several years due to their brutal tactics, Bill Roggio, expert analyst and senior editor of Foundation for Defense of Democracies’ "Long War Journal," explained to Fox News Digital that the threat posed by al Qaeda is far more sweeping today.
"The most dangerous terrorist group 24 years after 9/11 remains al Qaeda," Roggio said. "With the support of the Taliban, the situation there is far worse than it was pre-9/11."
