Don't know if you remember the TM thread but a few years ago some freepers had a discussion about the potential order of operations for commencement of low level attacks on our home soil. I think it was me, judicial meanz, Old Sarge, Mossad1967 and maybe Border Enforcer batting this around.
We sort of came to the conclusion that there could be three or four levels of terror operative looking to commence hostilities.
FIRST, there might be the organized cells with specific targets. The cell will have trigger pullers, support personnel to establish safe houses, documents etc and probably recon and security types. These are the folks who will have the WMD assets and be looking to score multiple 911's but oh so much worse than the original.
SECOND there would be trained terrorists with knowledge of fieldcraft but here as sleepers. They may have been here for years. They may have been assigned specific targets or they may have been given an array of potential targets to strike under a given codeword ("GO" CODE).
THIRD would be the random trigger pullers smuggled across the Mexican border since 911. They will be dedicated Jihadis but probably limited in education and salable civilian skills. They may settle into areas with high latino populations since the two at least superficially bear a resemblance to each other in physical features. They will secure typical illegal immigrant jobs and wait to strike. These would be the ones most likely to snap and go into sudden Jihadi syndrome as may have been demonstrated in the past perhaps in this most recent recruiter murder. However, there is no telling how many of these will remain dedicated to their original objectives and how many might succumb to the allure of the American lifestyle and simply move from the mission to the dream. OTOH, there is also no telling how many of the dedicated moles will stay on task and may even recruit new members to the cause, especially if arrested for other offenses and forced to move into the correctional system.
That very correctional system would provide the last and FOURTH wave of a much larger and coordinated plan. The converted are still criminals and now it's like they have a license to kill in the name of their pagan god (lower case deliberate) which they will embrace.
Spinning out of control? Vel, if this works as I've laid it out here, this country could sink into a cauldron of random violence balanced by targeted attacks and give a distinct resemblance to WWII Europe, in the worst way.
Worse, how will this administration react and against whom?
I do remember this discussion, ExSoldier.
I heard a gentleman on the radio last week, Gerald Celente of trendsresearch.com. He’s been amazingly accurate in predicting world trends and issues like a modern day Nostradamus. He’s not a seer though and bases his predictions on statistical trends.
[Gerald Celente is on the record for accurately forecasting: the 1987 Stock Market Crash, the Fall of the Soviet Union, the Dot.com bust, Gold Bull Market, 2001 Recession, the Real Estate bubble, the “Panic of ‘08”, Tax Revolts, The “Collapse of ‘09”, the coming “Greatest Depression” and many more social, economic, business, consumer and geopolitical trends...]

His prediction was terrifying, including talk of impending chaos in the US.
He said for example, that New York will soon resemble the most dangerous areas of Mexico with riots, fires, torching cars, kidnappings, food and general supply shortages, etc.
I haven’t had a good night’s sleep since hearing his predictions.
