The Federal Bureau of Investigation on Friday sent out an intelligence bulletin reminding U.S. law enforcement partners to be aware of the potential for homeland attacks carried out by sympathizers or followers of radical Islamic groups, CBS News correspondent Bob Orr reports.

The FBI alert primarily features an update and analysis of the recent attacks in Paris.

Also Friday, the State Department issued a "worldwide caution" regarding "the continuing threat of terrorist actions and violence against U.S. citizens and interests."

The travel warning says attacks against Americans are becoming increasingly prevalent. It also cites an increased risk of reprisals against U.S. and Western targets for the U.S.-led intervention against Islamic State militants in Syria and Iraq.

I forgot. Middle aged white guys with bombs and guns are never 'radical.'

The FBI wouldn't be suggesting profiling now would they?

I know I would and will be.
