Counterterrorism expert Juval Aviv spoke with FOX Fan Central about what Americans can do to protect themselves in case of a terror attack.
Do you believe another terrorist attack is likely on American soil? I predict, based primarily on information that is floating in Europe and the Middle East, that an event is imminent and around the corner here in the United States. It could happen as soon as tomorrow, or it could happen in the next few months. Ninety days at the most. What advice do you have for individuals that have the misfortune of finding themselves in the middle of a terror attack? Since mass transportation is the next attack, when you travel to work have with you, a bottle of water, a small towel, and a flashlight. What happened in London is exactly a point to look at. Those people who were close to the bombs died, then others were injured or died from inhaling the toxic fumes or getting trampled. The reason you take a bottle of water and a towel is that if you wet the towel and put it over your face, you can protect yourself against the fumes and get yourself out of there. Dont be bashful. If your gut feeling tells you when you walk on to a bus there is something unusual or suspicious, get out and walk away. You may do it 10 times for no reason, but there will be one time that saves your life. Let your sixth sense direct you. Try to break your routine.

"What portion of the American infrastructure do you believe is at the greatest risk for a terror attack? "
Chemical plants and fuel storage facilities. Big bang for the buck there, a spectacular result and nearly immediate economic repercussions.
Every time a train or subway or a building is attacked, a mosque/madrassa known to have a clergy that advocate violence must be obliterated without regard to collateral damage.
They must learn that there WILL BE ghastly consequences for their own acts.
Locked and Loaded....
Ping me when we can start destroying the Mosques please.
A thousand Korans should burn for every life taken.
I got my security right here *looks at gun*
Correction: The towelheads would LIKE for an event to be imminent and around the corner here in the United States. They've had about a dozen more "Big Ones" planned ever since 2001. But gosh darn it, they just haven't seemed to be able to get one together ever since that damned Texas cowboy decided this crap was gonna stop.
Bush has been frustrating these 21st Century Nazis for nearly four solid years and as long as he's in office, I'm not going to worry too much about the doomsayers. (I'll save that for the next Democratic administration.)

I totally agree.
Why does it smell like he has a book to sell?
..or he is looking for another job...
If terrorists were really targeting rush hour wouldn't their first strike be at 7:50am rather then 8:50am?
I think italy is next.
Irrelevant. I mean that there should be consequences of such gravity that th elesson cannot be mis-interpreted. Burning Korans doesn't mean sh*t.
Very good advice, my dear.
if liberals had their way, we'd all be on trains, and vulnerable to terrorists.
as it is, on the freeways we have to deal with the idiots that want to kill themselves and others to get to work a few seconds faster.
