Terrorist attacks in Sydney and foiled Christmas market plot in Germany, along with ISIS gunman killing U.S. troops in Syria, raise fears of rising extremist violence.
The sense of unease deepened further after an ISIS-affiliated gunman in Syria killed two U.S. service members and wounded an American civilian working alongside American forces.
