Federal Bureau of Investigation classifies attack as ‘act of terrorism’
Bowdich said the investigation showed that in addition to a Facebook post in which Malik expressed support for Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdad, the couple had also scrubbed social media accounts and attempted to destroy cell phones in an effort cover up evidence.

Islamic State, which has seized large parts of Syria and Iraq, took claim for the November 13 attacks in Paris in which gunmen and suicide bombers killed 130.
The family was aware that Farook owned two handguns and said coworkers had made fun of his beard, the attorneys said. The couple’s two assault rifles were legally purchased by someone else.
“The investigation so far has delivered indications of radicalization by the killers and of potential inspiration by foreign terrorist organizations”, Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey told reporters in Washington.
It includes in-person interviews, fingerprints, checks against terrorist watch lists and reviews of her family members, travel history and places where she lived and worked.
The couple may have been planning an additional attack, he added.
Police said Farook, 28, was a San Bernardino County restaurant inspector, born in Chicago to Pakistani parents.
Investigators are looking into a report that Farook had an argument with a co-worker who denounced the “inherent dangers of Islam” prior to the shooting, a us government source said.
A California landlord has invited media into the town house rented by the California attackers.
The official had knowledge of the investigation but wasn’t authorized to speak publicly. “After firing multiple rounds throughout the room, the shooter came to her and shot her. They stood over her and could have easily shot her in the head, but we are so grateful to God that they shot her in the leg and arm instead”.
Co-worker Patrick Baccari told the Los Angeles Times that Farook recently visited Saudi Arabia to meet a woman he met online. “What was he missing in his life?” asked Nizaam Ali, who worshipped with Farook at a mosque in San Bernardino. “But we don’t know why they did it”, President Obama said Thursday.
He had been there five years.
Authorities said the names of other victims may be released Thursday. “I am in shock myself”, Khan said.

He says the counterterrorism infrastructure is built on preventing tightly organized attacks directed by a specific group, not detecting people inspired by IS but operating independently.
