n January of 2024 I wrote Terrorist Attacks in America: for what are they waiting? It warned of a new reality: thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of terrorists allowed into America by Biden’s Handlers with little or no vetting. many were given free bus or jet travel to locations of their choice.

Mexican drug cartels are known to have arrangements with enemy states. They transport weapons and all the goodies terrorists need across the border. As I wrote then: “they’re sort of a cartel/terrorist UPS.”

Flash forward to March, 2026. The US and Israel struck Iran, reportedly killing the Ayatollah Khamenei and as many as 40 high-ranking regime officials in the initial round of strikes.

That’s a very good thing. It’s certainly disheartening to the 7th century Islamic lunatics running Iran, but it’s also potentially very dangerous for America here in the continental US. Why? Remember all those terrorists hanging out in America, just waiting for the “go” order?

SNIP

A sane enemy might take advantage of that offer, and I suspect some of the remaining, high-ranking functionaries will. However, Iran, like every other Arab/Muslim culture in the Middle East is an honor culture. They will not take their humiliation and impending military defeat well. Some of the remaining Iranian officials may very well give the “go” order. And even if they don’t, the individual jihadists in America are likely to activate their cells without any order from Tehran.

SNIP

They will not do 9-11 style attacks. Such events are likely to be discovered and intercepted. Instead, small groups of terrorists, armed with automatic weapons and explosives, will attack public gathering places in every state of the union. Grocery stores, theaters, parks, sporting events, schools, anywhere they can kill large numbers of infidels before they’re killed.

It is certainly time to be on Threat Condition Yellow.

Make sure all of your vehicles and every spare gas can is filled up, too.

Sellers will be trying to make extra cash off of this if there is a shortage. Keep an eye on Gas Buddy, too. SW WI is between $2.16 and $2.29 a gallon, today.

One should always be in Condition Orange.

That being said I’m willing to wager that 90% of the “sleepers” took a look around when they got here and said “This ain’t bad. Think I’ll just lay back and disappear into the woodwork.”

Of course that would still leave 10% of the dead ender types roaming around out there.

Hence Condition Orange at all times.

Shia terrorists are less numerous, sophisticated and lethal than Sunni terrorists (OBL, Zaquari, etc.). Not saying they’re not a threat but w/o Iranian funding ....little to no threat. They get paid to take chances and aren’t idealistic fools like our Leftists.

Another unrealized, under the radar threat is Western pundits and politicians who’ve learned how to get paid for supporting attacks against the West and Westerners in the guise of “objectivity”. Sorry but you don’t compromise with ppl or ideology which wants you dead and replaced 5000x over.

[PeterPrinciple]

Situational awareness can allow one to avoid trouble because they identify it early enough to simply leave before things get western. It also allows those so trained and inclined to be ready to effectively fight back, perhaps ending a terrorist attack before it really begins. That’s American too.

Print it out and give to others.

It gives Antifa another reason to attack innocents.

It is “those people are crazy” crowd that is a greater terror threat than the Aloha snackbar crowd.

[Seruzawa]

That’s always been a problem, for foreign intel ops. The agents disappear into the economy as soon as they see what is normally stocked in a supermarket.

[Carry_Okie]

It will be interesting to see what will be the orientation of their targets: MAGA types are more likely to be armed and trained, thus capable of reducing the carnage. Churches? Looks bad. For mass casualties, I'm thinking bombs more likely than guns. LGBTQUI parades or sporting events would seem to me the most likely.

Along those lines, a couple of weeks ago, it took me a ton of time to buy a 3 gallon bucket of ammonium nitrate for spraying weeds. I had to fill out a Federill form with an explanation, personal data, etc. I barely had any left by the time it arrived. Thank you Timothy McVeigh.

I was able to fill up last night

$2.59.9 instead of the recent $2.45.9 but hey...

It's a piece of cake setting a string of wildfires next to tony suburbs, with narrow winding roads, lots of expensive houses, fuels hugely out of control, and little water infrastructure, also having easier escape routes with little-to-no camera surveillance.

How did we get here?

[thescourged1]

Pulling out some extra cash from the bank is also a good idea in case our financial systems come under physical or cyber attack. The IRGC may not be able to pull off cyber attacks right now, but a proxy might.

I am ready to fight and make the sacrifices as a citizen. I say let them begin their campaigns of terror in this country. They were eventually going to do it anyway.

I despise being under the thumb of their threats. I have been stewing about Islamic Terrorists since the 1979 Embassy Takeover.

It may be expensive in money. It may costly in lives. But if we go back to the war against the Barbary Pirates we can recall the quote: "“Millions for defense, but not one cent for tribute!" and that is where I am now.

We have been paying emotional tribute to these scumbags for the past 47 years, if not open tribute like the scumbag POS Obama did. We have let them control our lives.

We now have to stand in long lines, disrobe, and take off our shoes. We have to listen to the whining about if we retaliate militarily, they will unleash terrorism in our own country, which has been facilitated by the Democrats.

We have accepted increased surveillance of innocent American citizens for our own safety.

I say we put our heads on a swivel and if they do what they were eventually going to do anyway, kill Americans on our own soil, we come down hard on them.

We need to make Terrorism in the 21st Century what we made Piracy in the 18th Century.
