Foreign terrorist organizations could target Pride month events: FBI, DHS
ABC News ^ | May 13, 2024 | Luke Barr

Foreign terrorist organizations may seek to exploit "LGBTQIA+-related events and venues," including events during 2024 Pride month -- celebrated in June, the FBI and Department of Homeland Security warned in a recent public service announcement.

"Organizations like ISIS may seek to exploit increased gatherings associated with the upcoming June 2024 Pride Month," according to the announcement, which the agencies issued last week. The announcement added that the threat is "compounded" by the "current heightened threat environment" in the United States.

The threats could come online, in person or in the mail, according to the FBI and DHS...

Nearly eight years ago, ISIS applauded the June 12, 2016, shooting at Pulse nightclub -- when a gunman killed 49 and wounded 53 at a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida.

"After the Pulse shooting, pro-ISIS messaging praised this attack as one of the high-profile attacks in Western countries, and FTO supporters celebrated it," the FBI and DHS wrote in the announcement...

Javed Ali, the former senior counterterrorism director on the National Security Council, said members of the LGBTQ+ community have long been the target of terrorist groups.

"LGBQTIA+ members have drawn the ire of al-Qaida and ISIS supporters in the past based on their perceived lifestyles and beliefs," Ali, who is now an associate professor at the University of Michigan's Ford School of Public Policy, told ABC News. "However, the degree to which this announcement was driven by specific and credible intelligence about attacks here against this community, versus a more general abundance of caution based on Pride month, remains unclear."

That’s a shame.
Maybe there’ll be some good video of two groups I detest going medieval on each other.

Technically, the FBI is a foreign terrorist organization.

I almost feel sorry for the FBI. They recruit operatives to act against the United States, and then have this weird addiction to acting like they had no hand in it.

Sounds like the FBI is getting the ‘activists’ trained and ready to infiltrate the group. Another J6 operation for them!

Now let me think about this.

Who is the filthy corrupt degenerate puppet president that let in all these thousands of Islamist sleeper cells into the USA the last three and a half years?

Think, who could it be?

When a device detonates during a Sodomy event and all those queer limbs fly all over the street, you can thank diaper boy for the beautiful celebration. /spit
