We’ll get hit before Christmas.
Black Friday.
LOADS of soft targets.
You left out one player that benefitted: the government-military-social media complex. After 9-11, the Feds created new agencies, expanded their power to surveil citizens, and directed government and military contractors and social media companies to violate the Constitution. January 6 led to a further escalation of Federal and corporate actions against the rights of US citizens.
It was said that 9-11 resulted from a failure of imagination. Let’s not lose sight of the possibilities now. New attacks would cause great fear - tyrants swould love citizens to give up liberty for the promise of security.
Uh, ‘would,’ not “swould.’
Yes they are, especially in states and cities where there are no concealed or open carry permits allowed by the citizens. On a good note, this is why we can create militias to defend ourselves from enemies foreign and domestic.
I’m more worried about being rounded up and thrown in prison as a J sixer.
Mr. GG2 and I are fine with dealing with some muzz illegal drawing down on us in the Wal-Mart parking lot. We’ve been in a bad mood for 3 years. 😆
I never said these contributing factors were the ONLY ones.
From everything I’ve seen, the Egypt warning was vague and had no specific details. And anyone who deals with security matters like this will tell you that vague, non-specific threats are so routine that it’s usually pointless to react to them in any visible manner.
Personally, I would say laziness and complacency have been the normal course of life in Israel since I saw how gullible and foolish that country’s population was in complying with Nazi COVID restrictions and vaccine mandates.
as far as i’m concerned it’s a miracle we haven’t had a real hit since 9/11...
Yep, an established commie tactic.
