Let's be safe out there.

Instead of using domestic terrorist like was used before, the new WU teamed with foreign muslim terrorist to carry out the attacks.
The playbook for the new WU is the same as the playbook for the old WU, orchestrate civil unrest then follow with terrorist attack.
This is the reason for the “spontaneous” lie at Benghazi,
spontaneous protest followed by spontaneous terrorist attack, to explain why the terrorist attacks since the 1st WTC bombing in 1993 have followed the WU playbook.
