Threat Matrix 2020

Threat Matrix 2020

Established in 2001 after the 9/11 attack on America, this thread is designed to identify threats to America, both internal and external, and evaluate the probability of those threats occurring and the extent of potential damage. Discussions may stray into ‘tinfoil’ territory, but the goal is to peel back and confirm information so we can make founded decisions and actions.

A media outlet affiliated with ISIS has been instructing the group’s radical adherents to set forest fires in the United States and Europe to cause mass ecological disasters, according to posts on an internet forum dedicated to the terror group.

At least four propaganda posters that have appeared on the pro-ISIS Quraysh media outlet have urged followers to “ignite fires” as part of an ongoing jihad against America and its allies.

“The next 24-48 hour window will show if Iran is willing to make good those threats.”

The preemptive strike in the next 12-24 hours must be even bigger.

Quick observations

Iran/Iraq

Iran’s leadership is saying it wants it to be clear they are retaliating. Reportedly discussing 13 scenarios. Included in targeting are US facilities in the gulf besides Iraq.

40 “mourners” (and increasing) killed in stampede in Tehran. Of course Trump’s fault.

Iranian and US forces positioning and repositioning in anticipation of Iran’s attack. Of note is Iran’s missile and naval elements.

Keeping all potential Iranian options in mind, use of their ballistic missiles is gaining ground in my mind. Again such use legitimizes all of Iran as a target zone. Now in 36 hour window. If Iranian leadership still planning or making decisions I don’t anticipate anything sooner.

Because of their signature - launch of ballistic missiles could allow the US to near immediately counter strike via cruse missiles with usaf and naval follow on shortly there after. It could be something like we’ve never seen before.

“40 “mourners” (and increasing) killed in stampede in Tehran. Of course Trump’s fault.”

Imagine what would happen with a simple F-35 flyover.

Iran knows that the only way they can pull the Shiite and Sunni Muslims together is to attack the common enemy Israel. I expect them to launch missiles toward Israel.

I agree.
At some point this will happen, but the consequences will be huge.

Still sorting things out. The bulk of the attack appears to have been focused on Ain Al Assad air base. Reports of two other bases hit but at least 16 hit Assad.

Now reports of jets wheels up from Turkey.

I expect US response to be strong and sustained.

Warning

A lot of fog of war out there. Trying to sort through.

Lots of propaganda out there too, including a photo claiming the airbase is on fire. That photo is from Gaza in 2017
