When they cut loose they are going to hit the large urban areas with everything they've got.
I just checked the Homeland Security site, and they say report it to the FBI.
I don’t think they will report it. I had an employee in 2002 that was claiming they had very suspicious neighbors and had alleged enough very specific actions to make us concerned.
We couldn’t get her to report it, so I did. And it wasn’t but a couple of days, until FBI officers just happened to engage her in a conversation. They apparently handled it pretty discreetly. I don’t know if the employee ever even knew I had tipped off the FBI based on her comments.

Maybe local police, too. Whoever is going to be least corrupt. Or maybe multiple sources. Or maybe the local TV channel. I’d just make sure it was known and known again.
ISLAMABAD: Hundreds of people on Sunday took part in a rally led by Pakistan Workers Associations (PWF), Islamabad to mark International Labour Day and to pay homage to the Chicago martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the cause of the labourers.Officially, they are commemorating the Haymarket riot in Chicago, May 4, 1886. Tomorrow would mark the 125th anniversary.
In Google news Pakistan martyrs chicago gets 56 hits. My paranoia is twitching a little now.
I lived in suburban Chicago all of my life. The Muslim population has grown tremendously and many mosques have been built in the surrounding suburbs. We had a business for many years and had ALOT of Muslim customers, as our business was near a suburban mosque. After 9/11, we had a MARKED decline in Muslim customers and when I asked about some of them to other Muslims, they would tell me “he went back to his country”.........the FBI will laugh at you if you call just because Muslims are congregating. I know because I called with some information I had after 9/11, thinking anything I could do would be helpful. Not so...they acted like they would be filing mine under “another hysterical Islamophobic caller”........but I’ve never stopped watching.......and I don’t live in IL anymore, either.
Thanks for posting this, I will be more observant. We have a mosque in our area too. The morning of 9/11, there was a quickie mart store nearby with a full parking lot. The place had Arabic writing in the windows, there were seldom any cars in the parking lot—yet that morning the lot was full. I called the FBI about it. Never heard anything back from them. But they did round up some people nearby associated with the mosque after 9/11. They were alleged charitable organizations who were funneling money to terrorist groups back home in the Middle East.
The best advice is to “be a good witness.” Don’t confront.
General interest ping.
I think there will be a terrorist attack. I believe that there were likely contingency plans laid upon his death by other than natural causes, especially his death by US forces.
His death likely put some mechanism in motion.
I would be very careful and suspicious these days about anything. Sadly, the real threats are ignored while the government is going after people for file or link sharing on the internet.
The heck with worrying about being racist.
Profile already.
I don’t think you need to worry until they all disappear at the same time.
I would watch to see who comes out of the house. If it is families, it may not be an issue. If it is all men, I would be concerned.

Talk about passive-aggressive. No wonder you are on edge... it looks like they are dropping the "passive" part.

I’m in Chicago and haven’t yet seen anything unusual and I’ve been on personal high alert. I will say that I’ve seen heightened security.
Kudos to you for reporting to the FBI.
Contact the local police, but make no mention of that they are from the middle east. If you do, then they may not come. Let the COPS will figure it out.
