4 Early Warning Signals Before a Terrorist Attack

Bottom Line Up Front (BLUF)

CommandEleven's Dead Drop Intel identifies four pre-attack behavioral and operational indicators that intelligence services are under-monitoring — and why acting on them matters.

While most of the media and talking heads provide opinions and thoughts on the terror attack after it happens, with a preponderance of evidence to argue, that is armchair quarterbacking. Once the attack happens, the intelligence agencies have failed and breaking down the attack is the only thing left.

Over the past 14 months, there have been:

  • the New Orleans terror attack, which was brushed under the rug, without any real investigation
  • the “Halloween plot,” which brought minor arrests within the United States, but the network was left unhampered due to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), being unable to coordinate the intelligence gathering
  • the arrests of “terrorists” in Los Angeles planning to blow up a bridge, which also disappeared
  • Being able to identify a terror attack before it happens is a skill very few individuals and organizations possess.

This article will give you the signals, signs, you need to identify so you can protect yourself and your family when the attack happens, when you are on the X.
