ISIS plot to blow up Virginia malls: Cops increase security at shopping centers after receiving warning that the terror group is plotting an attack just miles from the nation's capitol (McAuliffe rally?)
Daily Mail ^ | 10/29/21 | Shannon Thaler

A threat of a possible ISIS attack on US soil has put put police on high alert after a law enforcement alert warned that the international terrorist group could strike malls and shopping centers in Northern Virginia.

On Thursday 'we received information concerning potential public safety impacts to malls and shopping centers across the region,' Fairfax County Police Chief Kevin Davis said at a press conference Friday afternoon.

Davis did not mention what type of warning they received from ISIS beyond calling it 'information that we have that we're simply acting on'.

However, CBS News reported the threat originated with ISIS and is the basis for the alert.

Police cruisers were seen on Friday patrolling the area around Fair Oaks Mall, which is located 20miles outside of Washington, DC.

'Sometimes the information we receive is not with great specificity but we have to respond to it nonetheless,' Davis explained.

'We have increased our police presence throughout the county to include major thoroughfares, transit hubs, shopping plazas and shopping malls,' he said, adding: 'It's just our responsibility to have a greater presence, to be more aware and to ask the community to have their eyes and ears peeled for suspicious activities.'

He said that the increased law enforcement presence will be in place 'where people gather' throughout Halloween weekend and into Tuesday, which is when Virginia's gubernatorial election is taking place.

What the hell do we expect? Unanticipated consequences of the southern border invasion? Blown up bridges, tunnels, malls, airports, refineries, schools… will be on Biden’s and the Democrats hands.

Youngquin ahead 8 points so they’re trying to suppress the vote or postpone the election. It’s a big country. Why Virginia?

The next day, they said he was up by 1. Polls are no help. Republicans getting to the polls will be what matters.

I’d be more worried if our national security agencies said everything was safe.

That’s when you know something bad is going to go down.

The administration deposited “refugees” in the Dulles area, Quantico. I have encountered plenty of them in my day-to-day. They are not the unwashed, poor from the hinterlands, they are the Afghan version of “middle-class” who lived near the city and could afford to bribe the guards. Most of them have US connections and have been relocated awaiting more promised payouts from Joe. I was told by the guy that runs a restaurant that they’re expecting enough money from us to purchase housing to “resettle”.
They did leave most of their material possessions behind but the US forces didn’t use 120,000 interpreters, these people were enjoying a life on the US largess and didn’t want to live without it. This was clearly a democrat voter campaign, paid for by the US taxpayers and 30+ US service members killed, injured.

I would not doubt that the intel includes people in the unvetted group or who crossed the border this year.

ISIS was pretty much taken care of before the Dems moved into the White House again. Now it seems they’ve been given another chance to recover.

If they blew up a McClinton rally, it would only hurt about 6 people

All of the crap will continue until the bad stuff starts happening in white neighborhoods. Once those white people stop voting for dems and their continued flood of illegals and “authorized” 3rd-worlders, this will start to change. Just a question of how bad it will be before the change comes.
