The Paris terrorist attacks have everyone on their toes. Good. That's how we should be living in this day and age. Looking back, that makes two major strikes from ISIS (Paris and Russian plane bombing) that dealt significant damage. These are no longer idle threats, boys and girls. Our enemies are getting down to business. They may not be prevailing necessarily in Syria and Iraq, but they are conducting attacks of absolute horror in other countries. This shouldn't be a surprise, they're strongest tool in unconventional warfare.

Now the real question... When are the major terrorist attacks of the Paris magnitude coming to the US? Where will they strike first? How will the attacks be conducted (obviously they use many different means to cause destruction)? Could their attacks cause WROL situations here at home? Can they turn countries against each other? How shall we prepare?
Let's start this discussion here, not on the official "Paris" thread.

One would question if the government would take away more of our freedoms and privacy (patriot act II) if/when another terrorist act happens on US soil...

Let no tragedy go to waste.

Maybe a false flag event coming to a town near your in the guise of ISIS.

What happened in Paris was bad, no doubt. What are the French gonna do about it? I know they have presence in Syria but I thought that was to fight against the Syrian regime. Are they gonna allocate resources to fight ISIS/terrorist or just rely on the USA to send our boys and girls in harms way for some other country so they can sit back a critisize us?

Its too far for them to travel here in THE US. Obama will protect us like a Frenchman! Our homeland security is armed and ready.
Wrong. As my former Drill Sergeant said - "You are wrong as a day is long."

Some of the terrorists in the recent Paris attack, were French. radical Muslims.

"9/11" happened with no previous warning. It was coordinated - it was swift - and it was effective. Minimal manpower and minimal effort for significant damage.

The recent Paris attack. Same thing. No indication of an attack - multiple attacks - confused public as well as Law Enforment and Security not knowing which way to go.....based on multiple attacks at differnet locations.

Respond to multiple attacks - PLUS.....PLUS send Law Enforcement to vital and important areas to prevent an attack or damage. The terrorists spread out the resources and security. That is the physical damage, the psychological damage is a hundred time more tremoundous.

The bad guys, like "9/11" were already in the city, blended in with the French population, studied and researched ; and then attacked.

Basically the same "M.O" and procedure as "9/11". The terrorists handbook seems to be the same book all over the world.

I am for Media blackouts though - in the sense their should not be live video of terrorist acts/scenes for all the bad guys around the world to smile at. To do an "After Action Review", see the damage they created and to critique how it could have been done better. If Joe Schmoe reporter wants to report live and tell the story in his own words..... then so be it ---- BUT NO VIDEO of the attack area.

Our borders are wide open, TSA is a joke, and our Homeland security is blinded by the above. Just because we aren't on the same piece of land and separated by some water doesn't mean we are safe and is certainly not too far for them to travel if they even have to travel at all.
We have known for years that cells exist in the US.. HL says they have a bead on them.. um hello.. if we had a bead on them the cells would no longer exist because HL needs to provide job security.
Make no mistake.. there are no paratroopers falling from the sky.. no tanks coming over the hill.. or red dawn specials... they are already here.. they live here, they go to school here, they have jobs here, and have families here.. they are lying in weigh for their target to become rich.
These foe have one goal .. to cause as much American bloodshed as possible. Make no mistake, it's not a matter of if.. it's when, how prepared we will be to respond and how far America is willing to go to keep our homeland safe.

My thoughts and prayers are with the people of France..

Completely agree with all of this. An attack of the magnitude seen in Paris (or more) WILL HAPPEN. The Russian plane bombings WILL HAPPEN in America. They are here. As preppers, we should prepare for nothing short of all out firefights in the streets. That's what it means to be prepared, we must be ready for ANYTHING. Although we can't become crazed by the issue and seek blood mindlessly, we must be prepared for the absolute worst. The enemy is already amongst us, hiding in our shadows as we look towards the son. If they hide in the shadows, then we will fight in the shadows.

It's time to prepare, brothers and sisters. Sharpen your minds, hone your skills, strengthen your bodies. Train and prepare. This WILL happen.
For all we know, our home may become a war ground.
Get ready to crush skulls.

Boston proved conclusively that people are afraid of their own shadows and will do anything to stay within the safe, warm embrace of Big Brother. They'll eagerly trade any liberties they once had to feel safe and provided for. They derive comfort in seeing a militarized police state cruising down Main Street in heavily armored vehicles pointing automatic weapons at anything that moves and entering any and every home they pass by, without a shred of "reasonable suspicion."

This is what "We the People" have become. Attacks will come -- perhaps even allowed, encouraged, or assisted -- because they're expedient and useful toward BIG.GOV's long-term plans.

The attacks will come...probably DC first (ISIS already stated they want to hit Paris, London, Washington, and Rome). Others would be NYC, Chicago, Houston, Vegas, LA.

Although NYC has better security than the other cities listed.

Only thing I can offer is to be ready. I know I'll be carrying my G17 tomorrow at church (I usually carry a 26).

Honestly, the attacks are probably going to happen in tiny pockets of America as things progress. There may be some in larger cities in the short term.

There's a few dams here in S. Carolina that anybody can get access to and someone could very easily destroy if they truly wanted to, causing 10s of thousands to die within minutes.

For now, it's terror by random shootings and bombings...As things progress and their power grows if it's unchallenged, they'll start targeting basic infrastructure. Destroying dams, taking out bridges, crippling the power grid.

It's a scary time to be alive.

Keep prepping my friends.:thumb:

Government's primary focus is to stay in power and to increase that power.

When innocents are attacked, the citizenry is more than eager to throw away freedom for the guise of security, thereby granting almost unlimited power to the government.

If you think governments around the world don't draw that connection, I don't know how to help you.

That is what we are heading toward and are awfully close to already - a government with unlimited power and a people that want it that way.

If I were them, I would pilot freshly-refueled airliners into the two tallest buildings in New York, then smash one into the Pentagon, and, if my fourth plane wasn't recommandeered by the passengers and dropped into a field in Pennsylvania, I'd fly it straight into the White House. By then, they'd probably catch on and ground every remaining flight.

Oh, wait, they already did that. :(

None of your first three is correct in this nation.
I pray for England, the nation of my birth, because it is slipping quickly into the muslim grasp...

It's just sad. The nation that once ruled the world, civilized the world... will be destroyed by the very barbarians they opened their arms to.
And all because, once they realize the danger, they will find themselves unarmed and thus unable to resist.
Tragic.

Beslan School Massacre.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beslan_school_siege

The Beslan school siege (also referred to as the Beslan school hostage crisis or Beslan massacre)[2][3][4] started on 1 September 2004, lasted three days and involved the capture of over 1,100 people as hostages (including 777 children),[5] ending with the death of 331 people. The crisis began when a group of armed Islamic terrorists

Fortunately I don't spend much time in public places anyway (2 small children are good at ensuring that you don't spend time at concerts and sports games, or even spend much time at a restaurant), and I don't think where I live is on any ISIS lists of desirable places to attack. High per capita gun ownership and nothing here that on a national level anyone really likes or cares about. Trying to do anything large scale would meet heavy resistance from about 10% of the population that have a CCW permit. Now, there is a chance of a violent confrontation or even a small chance of a homegrown trying to do a small improvised attack, and for that I've got my CCW, and usually there's at least 2 CCW holders in the room anywhere I do go.

Not that I don't keep a vest and rifle in the trunk, but that's for different threats and I don't think there would be anything large enough here terrorism-wise that I'd have an opportunity to use them.

Now the real question... When are the major terrorist attacks of the Paris magnitude coming to the US?
they have made no bones about Mumbai and similar being "drills" for in the US. ATTEMPTS have no doubt already been done.
Where will they strike first?
high value, or highly public places/events. Out here in BFE... Not so much.

How will the attacks be conducted (obviously they use many different means to cause destruction)?
look at what's been done.

Could their attacks cause WROL situations here at home?
more likely (and more dammaging) that things go the other way... and that might be the intent.

Can they turn countries against each other?
yes

How shall we prepare?
.
Same as any other threat, eternal vigilance, training in medicine and arms, have same avalable, sharpen your mind, and be as self sufficient as possible.

Funny how many things that's the answer to.
