In a separate speaking engagement at an International Association of Chiefs of Police event, he noted "an increase in reported threats" and in particular warned that "we've got to be on the lookout ... for lone actors who may take inspiration from recent events to commit violence of their own." He further urged police chiefs to stay vigilant because as first responders, "you're often the first to see the signs that someone may be mobilizing to violence." The FBI director twice said that he was "horrified...by the brutality committed at the hands of Hamas" and added that countering terrorism is the bureau's No. 1 priority. "We will not tolerate violence motivated by hate and extremism," he said, adding that the bureau's legal attaché office in Tel Aviv is working with Israeli and U.S. Embassy partners "to locate and identify all Americans who've been impacted in the region, including those who remain unaccounted for." He further stated that victim services specialists are working with victims and their families at home and abroad. (Related: Hamas was created by Israeli and US intelligence services to counteract Yasser Arafat, Ron Paul explains.) Meanwhile, after giving the northern Gaza Strip an evacuation ultimatum on Friday, Israel has so far withheld from launching a "significant" ground operation, due to rainy weather and some other reasons. Some are speculating that requests from the U.S. to evacuate all U.S. citizens out of Palestine ahead of the invasion are holding Israel back. Amid all of these, a deadly blast at the Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza killed hundreds of Palestinians. The Hamas-controlled authorities in Gaza immediately blamed Israel, claiming it was a deliberate air strike but Israel's military has denied responsibility for the attack and claimed a misfired Palestinian rocket hit the hospital. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, "The entire world should know: it was barbaric terrorists in Gaza that attacked the hospital in Gaza, not the IDF. Those who brutally murdered our children also murder their own children."The head of the FBI, Christopher Wray, warns of the inspiration that Islamist threats in the US may receive from the events here. pic.twitter.com/OxpyenluZD
