The U.S. homeland security chief said on Sunday he takes seriously a threat made by Somali-based Islamist militants against shopping malls, including the Mall of America in Minnesota, and urged people going there to be careful.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson was reacting to a video released by al-Shabaab appearing to call for attacks on Western shopping areas, specifically mentioning Mall of America, the West Edmonton Mall in Canada and London's Oxford Street.

"This latest statement from al-Shabaab reflects the new phase we've evolved to in the global terrorist threat, in that you have groups such as al-Shabaab and ISIL publicly calling for independent actors in their homelands to carry out attacks," Johnson told CNN, using an acronym for the militant group Islamic State.

"We're beyond the phase now where these groups would send foreign operatives into countries after being trained some place," Johnson said.

There is precedent for an attack on malls by the group. The al-Qaida-linked terror group talks in the video about its September 2013 attack on a mall in Kenya. The brazen siege, which went on for days, left more than 60 people dead at an upscale mall in Nairobi.

Asked specifically about the threat to Mall of America, one of the world's largest shopping complexes, Johnson said: "Anytime a terrorist organization calls for an attack on a specific place, we've got to take that seriously."

"I would say that if anyone is planning to go to the Mall of America today, they've got to be particularly careful."

Hours later, Homeland Security Department spokeswoman Marsha Catron said the department and the FBI had shared information about the video with local law enforcement and "private sector partners."

"As a general matter, however, we are not aware of any specific, credible plot against the Mall of America or any other domestic commercial shopping center," she said in a statement.

One U.S. intelligence official said security officials are indeed worried about the risk of an attack on U.S. soil by a solitary militant, but al Shabaab as a group has not appeared to gain much traction with most Somalis in the West, including in Minneapolis.

"In balance, I don't think this video adds much on top of the ubiquitous 'lone offender' threat," said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Staff Sgt. Brent Meyer of Canada's Royal Canadian Mounted Police said "there is no evidence at this time of any specific or imminent threat to Canadians." In Britain, a spokesman said London police were aware of the video and were assessing it.

Mall of America and West Edmonton Mall issued statements saying they were implementing extra security measures.

Minnesota is home to a sizeable Somali-American population. U.S. law-enforcement officials have been concerned about the potential for radicalization among some of the community.

The Mall of America has more than 500 stores and attracts 40 million visitors a year, about two-fifths of them tourists, according to its website. It’s owned by Triple Five Group, an Edmonton, Alberta-based development company.

Johnson’s interview occurred as funding for the Department of Homeland Security is set to lapse Feb. 27. Such a lapse would trigger a shutdown of non-essential agency operations unless Congress enacts new funds.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John Boehner want to use a spending bill to force President Barack Obama to reverse his orders shielding undocumented immigrants from being deported.

On Monday, McConnell will try for a fourth time to advance a House-passed Homeland Security spending bill, H.R. 240, that would require Obama to abandon the immigration action he announced in November.

Democrats have blocked the measure three times. They say Congress should fund Homeland Security, which is responsible for immigration and border enforcement, without setting new limits on immigration policy. Democrats have said they are holding firm in defense of the president’s policies.

The National Security Council told CNN it's working with various agencies, including the FBI and local law enforcement, to ensure maximum security.

"Protecting public safety and national security is our highest priority," Ned Price, a spokesman for the National Security Council, told CNN.

The Somalia-based militants have heavily recruited in Minneapolis, which is home to the largest Somali population in the United States. Many young men have slipped away to join the group in Somalia.

Although al-Shabaab has also targeted youth in Canada, Finland, and the UK for recruitment, its past attacks have been limited to East Africa. In addition to Kenya and Somalia, it has also struck in Uganda, where it killed more than 70 people gathered to watch a World Cup soccer match in Kampala five years ago. Kenya and Uganda have sent their forces to neighboring Somalia to battle the extremists, CNN reported.

As the attacks get more daring, the international community has rallied to fight the militants.

Last year, the United States launched an airstrike in Somalia that killed the al-Shabaab leader. The terror group later replaced him and vowed to avenge his death.

Republican Senator John McCain of Arizona said in an interview on CBS’s "Face the Nation" Sunday that he didn’t support efforts to shut the government down and that the federal court system is the "best way" to resolve the impasse.

"But have no doubt I am angry, as are my constituents in a border state, that the president of the United States would unconstitutionally issue the executive orders he did," McCain said.

Senator Lindsey Graham, a South Carolina Republican, urged Republicans to fund the department and fight Obama’s actions in court.

"The worst possible option is to defund the Department of Homeland Security," Graham said. "And I will not be part of that."

I watched the Punani in Chief,,, give away the victoriesin Iraq and afghanistan,, he has already put my life in jeopardy,, repeatedly,,,

Ve'hoe

Sicilianthing

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

He doesn't design all this at all... it's Valerie Jarrett the Muslim Infiltrator from Iran talking to the wizzard families on the other end...

She is shaping policy and the restraint from the agencies etc...

When they attack though, they will be rogue cells that are uncontrollable and unaccountable to any major faction but will claim allegiance to them of course.

When they strike in the mall, park, stadium etc...

I hope the people rise up and Kill them where they stand !

And it will begin.

Then You can set your sights on the true instigators, culprits, perpetrators in Washington...

They'll have nowhere to hide !

Ve'hoe

And like jezebel,,,, she should be cast into the streets for dogs to devour............

We have several issues a I see it;
1-We have allowed Islamic Samalians and others to come into this country under the guise that they are refugees and with the freedom we have in America they have become more radical everyday.
2-We have an incompetent homeland security that can not listen to warning, not even from then peaceful Russia when it came to Tamerlan and his brother who bombed the Boston marathon.
3-We are suffering as a nation devided over BS politics ,our media coverage of that and two childish parties willing to destroy our unity over the typical talking points that fuel anger;jobs, guns, children, elderly , taxes, food , minority's , immigrants and women's rights. None of which mean much unless it comes to votes.
4-We have a president who is not patriotic and does not love it even like our country.
5-I'm starting to hate Muslims more and more, not just because they murder everyday, not just because they are living in the sixth century still, not just because they actually hate women. I am learning to hate them because they are all clueless and they talk out against the murderous radicals.
6-We are allowing these Muslims to set up shop in our universities and all the while we are squishing other religions to death.
I could go on and on, sorry for the rant

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

It's not a Rant Vaca... I'm with you...

This issue is going to get worse... until we the people do something about it.

PERIOD !

There is no other solution so far... our government is useless and it's really their fault anyway...

Spread the word.

Prepare, train and stock up, be at the ready when they strike !

Sicilianthing and Ve'hoe- Think about this for a minute. First of all obama says there is no existential threat. Right? The we have a threat from those Muslim sons a bitches that's serious enough for the Department of Homeland Security to warn people to be careful going to a mall. As a result a serious increase in security is taking place at the mall of America. One of the largest malls in the world mind you. What are the people supposed to do to be careful? Yell oh shit when the shooting starts or where is my child he was right next to me when the explosion happened? I personally would call this an existential threat wouldn't you? DHS then says they are really concerned about the recruitment of Somalian immigrants to the Muslim terrorist groups either overseas or into cells here in the U.S.. This would be called an internal threat. Right? How many of those Somalians in Minneapolis ( Which has the largest concentration of them) in our country were completely vetted prior to being allowed to live here. How many of them are here illegally? The obama administration has no clue or for that matter no way what so ever of verifying these peoples actual status just like all the other illegals he is allowing and has been allowing to not only come here but to stay here and drain our society of much needed resources meant for OUR citizens. Right? The democrats then say the republicans should pass a clean DHS funding bill without any strings attached to obamas illegal actions regarding immigrants who many already have criminal backgrounds. If I were the republican senate leader, I would be telling the country by any and all media methods that this is the very reason why obamas illegal amnesty is putting the United States in a major security breach and ask the people and I mean right now, this week, if they are willing to have to be careful of terrorist attacks by simply going to a mall? Or stop this traitor living in THE PEOPLES HOUSE from putting your families and mine at great risk for another set of 9/11,s. For crying out loud America we have TRAITORS IN CHARGE IN THIS ADMINISTRATION, DONT YOU CARE?

Semper Fi

Wake up my sleeping GIANT .. .please wake up... and protect the children next.

God How I prayed today for the WRATH of Misery upon those perpetuators.

Someone please ring that bell !

Vacaman

I think you nailed it with the scare tactics line, I think a bunch of us are falling for it too. I can only hope and pray that the radicals hackve been vetted and I they have not I would like to be ready tomorrow in the paper just how they rooted out a cell and slaughtered them in any part of the world. I am sick and tired of defending Christianity and Judaism while Obamajama is betraying both, he is such a coward. I think it would be great to drop him and Michael in the middle of Palestine, Syria, Somalia, Saudi arabia, or Egypt and see how long they would last over there kissing muslime azz.
