THE THREAT
The threat from these terrorists cannot be taken lightly. The Guardians of Peace have already proven themselves sophisticated, resourceful, determined, and ruthless. While the hack itself is impressive, the rollout of the information through the news and entertainment media has been equally so. On top of stealing all that data, the terrorists have undoubtedly thought well beyond that. The terrorists are playing chess with Sony, and as of now they are winning.
You don’t trifle with people like that. You take them seriously, and when it comes to terrorist threats it would be reckless not to take them at their word.
How savvy are these terrorists? The fact that in the media Sony has taken more heat over these emails than the criminals who stole them speaks volumes. Therefore, it is not absurd to assume the terrorists had a plan to somehow cause chaos in some or all theatres screening “The Interview.”
How hard would it be to call in bomb threats to every theater during every screening?
How hard would it be to hack into these theatres to set off smoke and fire alarms?
According to Homeland Security, there is no chatter or intelligence to back up the threat of a 9/11-style attack against movie theatres and innocent patrons. But that’s of little comfort in this era of lone wolf terrorists who act all on their own motivated only by inspiration and a sick desire for fame.
