At least six flights were impacted by threats at airports in New York, New Jersey and Boston today, according to airlines and law enforcement.

JFK Airport:

An Air France plane was escorted to JFK Airport in New York City this morning after an anonymous threat was made against the flight, law enforcement officials told ABC News. The FBI said the plane has since been checked and cleared with "no incidents or hazards reported on board the flight by either the passengers or its crew."

Because no one has ever called in a bomb threat to a plane, ever. Until the intelligence apparatus decided it needs funding.

What I don't get is them calling the Garrett County State Police Barracks in McHenry. There's nothing up there but a big lake and a ski resort. I know the place. An old buddy of mine is the barracks commander the next county over. If they'd have wanted to cause chaos or get publicity, there are much more effective ways of doing it besides calling in to the local pig pen in some podunk town in the hills.

My point is that disruption of our systems and lives can be accomplished without actual physical attack - mere threats can be nearly as effective, and require minimal resources on the part of attackers.
Are we dealing with these attacks properly? I don’t know. Probably it is not wise to ignore threats, but as you mention, where the heck are all of the agencies that we pay to counter these attacks and eliminate the attackers?

so how we gonna’ do that brother? who’s on the side of the regular mom/dad/brother/sister that’s going to do this?

According to a report I read earlier today- it was quoted as “a call was made”, anon.
personally, i think it’s all false flag shite & you’ll never hear about it again once it leaves the 24hr news cycle.

the msm can perpetuate a false flag & right now their time is up.

These agencies need to divulge more otherwise it lures people into a false sense of security- but that won’t happen-you see my reasoning here?

but they DON’T divulge & there is no transparency of actions like this.these are done to lure one into a false sense of security

Very serious. Puts lives in danger. Long jail terms.

... and fine them to cover the cost of the fuel used to scramble the fighters... and other related costs.

to eliminate attackers one must attack the attackers ... Being pro-active is not allowed by the obama administration ...

I agree. This administration relies so heavily on crisis. If one doesn’t conveniently exist they will make one up.
