Michael Leiter, former director of the U.S. National Counterterrorism Center, said France's ban on full-body burkini swimsuits will cause a division in the country, making it more vulnerable to terror attacks.
"I think it certainly really can cause a schism, and schism is exactly what ISIS will look to take advantage of," Leiter told ABC's Martha Raddatz, who asked about the effects the burkini ban would have on France.
