The Bigger Picture Behind the San Bernardino Jihadist Attack
Politichicks ^ | 12-11-2015 | Steven Maikoski

As the news of the terrorist attack in San Bernardino developed, I was became concerned with the amount of ammunition that law enforcement authorities found in the killer’s apartment. Despite Farook and Malik having over 1500 rounds with them when they were killed, they had left over 3,000 rounds and twelve pipe bombs behind. That’s close to 5,000 rounds of ammo. The newsreaders are telling you one thing, but the tactical mind understands that this cache was likely gathered for a reason, for a bigger operation involving several gunmen.

Now more information is filtering out. After reconstructing Farook’s crushed cell phone, they have found photos of a nearby high school. Why was he taking those photos?

Do you remember the Breslan school siege in North Ossettia? 1,100 people were taken hostage, including over 700 children. Almost 400 were killed in this attack by the terrorists.

Of course, that couldn’t happen here. Could it?

The photos of the high school were the only ones divulged by the authorities. Were more pictures of possible targets on the phone?

So, if a bigger attack was short-circuited to the attack in San Bernardino, what caused the change?

“So, if a bigger attack was short-circuited to the attack in San Bernardino, what caused the change?”

I think this guy just got so pissed off at his coworker (Thalasinos), that he launched early.

Media answer: because he was a health inspector and the high school was on the list to be inspected. OK? Yep! Got it? Nope.

I agree. I do wonder how Thalasinos was dressed for that event.

From what we can put together, it is likely his spirited presence changed some evil plans from a large operation to a smaller attack.

Maybe ... but it's a stretch at best.

A friend of mine now past was a psychiatrist in a county Mental Health facility. He was also a gun collector and a regular at the range. While on a lunch break he was surfing the usual gun/ammo sites when he spied a particularly good deal on 1000 rn cases of ammo. So he whipped out the old credit card and ordered 5 cases.
10 to 14 days after he got a call from the receptionist saying there was a delivery for him. When he got down there, there stood a UPS guy with a hand-truck stacked with 5000 rns of ammo plainly marked as such.
Standing beside him were two guys from the local police, asking for a explanation. He had simply forgot to change the “Ship To’ Adddress" on the site.
Since he was known to the local police for his duty as the county “go to Suicide negotiator”
Nothing was done,(the embarrassment was enough), but a request for him to remove the shipment from county property

It was such a serious threat that the FBI didn’t even bother to dust the perp’s apt for fingerprints. Gee I guess they already knew who all the players were.

Nicholas displayed his Jewish religion in a proud manner. He wore a Star of David tie clasp and the traditional Jewish tassels; a display that may be cute to some people, but in-your-face to others.

Not sure I'd use the word 'cute' to describe the way in which he followed his beliefs, but I have known people who would consider it a provocation. Witnessing to Muslims is certainly not for the faint of heart.

Most likely, they intended to attack a secondary target, plant some IEDs that would kill or injure first responders and keep them occupied while they attacked the primary target. Apparently, someone recognized Farook, and that may have upset their plans, since the cops were out searching for him.

Agreed. Had they not attacked his worksite first their attack would have gone on much longer.

My guess? The high school wasn't hit because the bombs that were set to take out first responders didn't go off.

If the bombs had exploded - killing police and EMTs the slaughter at the high school - the torture and murder of children - would have happened.

Schools are gun free zone - - it would have taken a long time to get a force over there to take out the terrorists....if many police had been killed at the first site.

The FBI should check to see if there are pictures of grade schools... as young children being slaughtered creates more fear. If "Homeland" was involved they would destroy the pictures... as they want to protect the 'image' of muslims. Even when that 'protection' hurts moderate muslims... and hurts Americans.

Of course, calling a moratorium on Muslims coming into the country until we can figure ‘what the hell’ is going on - is only an act of a Hitler, right?

"Media answer: because he was a health inspector and the high school was on the list to be inspected."

I heard a report that the school's security system was part of those inspections. Also that the little Mrs was trying to get work in a pharmacy.

That paints a scenario that was worse than what I pictured.

My only hold on this idea is that you’d need more gunmen,

The FBI was talking about it yesterday - pictures on the monster's cell phones of some local schools.

And the bombs - delayed action - a typical ME trick - they're set to explode AFTER police and EMT's come to assist the wounded...

It seems the monsters weren't able to explode them with their remote controls... maybe too far away.

Of course at this point much of it is speculation... and if the crazies in the White House have their way any negative information will NOT be shared with the public. It might effect the big donors in the ME... the one's who 'give' to democrats, buy their books and pay for their 'speeches'...
