(Fox) The deputy director of the CIA confirmed that the intended terrorist plot at Taylor Swift’s shows in Vienna earlier this month intended on killing “a huge number” of people — including Americans.
David S. Cohen revealed at the Intelligence and National Security Summit, as seen in a video on CSPAN, that the information Austrian authorities used to stop the terror plot from occurring was given to [them by] the CIA.
“They were plotting to kill a huge number, tens of thousands of people at this concert, I am sure many Americans,” Cohen said. “The Austrians were able to make those arrests because the agency and our partners in the intelligence community provided them information about what this ISIS-connected group was planning to do.”
