FBI stops planned New Year’s Eve Los Angeles terror attack by pro-Palestinian cell
NY Post ^ | 12/15/2025 | Josh Christenson

The FBI claims to have thwarted a terrorist plot to carry out coordinated bombings in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve, arresting five members of a pro-Palestinian extremist group accused of planning attacks in the City of Angels, The Post has learned.

The “credible” threat came from radical members of the Turtle Island Liberation Front (TILF), according to a law enforcement source.

Four were collared in Lucerne Valley in the Mojave Desert, where the extremists allegedly were testing improvised explosives, while a fifth was apprehended in New Orleans.

“After an intense investigation, the Department of Justice, working with our FBI, prevented what would have been a massive and horrific terror plot in the Central District of California (Orange County and Los Angeles),” Attorney General Pam Bondi posted Monday on X.

“The Turtle Island Liberation Front—a far-left, pro-Palestine, anti-government, and anti-capitalist group—was preparing to conduct a series of bombings against multiple targets in California beginning on New Year’s Eve,” Bondi said. “The group also planned to target ICE agents and vehicles.”

“This was an incredible effort by our US Attorneys’ Offices and the FBI to ensure Americans can live in peace. We will continue to pursue these terror groups and bring them to justice,” she added. The arrests were first reported by Fox News.

The FBI did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

If you want to join the The Turtle Island Liberation Front, you have to really really hate Times Square...

I remember the ‘turtle island’ bunch as eco wackos, not palis. Oh well. Good they caught them. Now to the rest of the cell.

So this leftist group with palestinian sympathies was going to bomb LA?

This is impossible, because Islamic and leftist street violence have nothing to do with each other, I was informed yesterday by mac_truck.

All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, the fresh-water system, and public health, what have the turtles ever done for us?

Anyone going to any large crowd event over the next few weeks should have their head examined.
