For those of us who are old enough to remember the failings of our three letter agencies in the run up to terrorist attacks on 9/11, you will recall the promise to never have such failures in communication occur again. Yet here we are some twenty plus years later and even with the creation of a new Department of Homeland Security, we are suffering the same fate, the same refusal to acknowledge the pending threat of an attack on US soil in 2025. Only this time, the enemy is much more organized and better financed, thanks in part to the Doha agreement that ended the war in Afghanistan on August 15, 2021.
Terrorist Warnings
Sarah Adams is a current DOD employee who is tasked with targeting and tracking terrorist threats to the US and our allies. She formerly worked for the CIA in a similar role and was stationed in Benghazi, Libya before, during and after the 9/11 attack there in 2012. She co-authored the tell all book Benghazi: Know Thy Enemy, A Cold Case Investigation. Adams has been sounding the alarm bells in every corner possible but has largely found her warnings are falling on deaf ears. One bright spot was with the Florida Governor, Ron DeSantis. Governor DeSantis sat for a briefing on the current terrorist threats exacerbated by the open border crisis, his response was to call all his state sheriffs the following day and to make plans for the creation of a rapid response team.
Unfortunately, the state of Florida and Governor DeSantis response is not indicative of any other states, politicians or agencies. Along with Sarah Adams, others are sounding the alarm and attempting to attract the attention of our vaunted three-letter agencies. LTC(Ret) Scott Mann, a former Green Beret with multiple deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, was brought out of retirement in August of 2021 when the US abruptly pulled out of country leaving tens of thousands of Afghan allies stranded and facing certain death at the hands of the terrorist Taliban regime. Mann helped to organize a group of veterans in an action called “The Pineapple Express.” Their attempts to save the US trained Afghan commandos helped spare many from capture, torture, and death.
In addition to this action, LTC Mann helped to maintain a human touch with Afghan rebels who are still fighting to free their homeland from the Taliban and Al-Qaeda forces. With the withdrawal of US Forces we also severed our HUMINT(human intelligence) assets which are the bread and butter of any intelligence force. Without someone on the ground to report back the activities of groups like Al Qaeda, ISIS, or others, US intelligence agencies are left to rely on the word of the Taliban government. The same Taliban government we were at war with for over 20 years. However, men like LTC Mann and operatives like Sarah Adams have maintained open lines of communication with their sources. These sources are no longer willing to communicate with the US Government or their spy agencies as they betrayed these commandos and their families.
The American people famously have short memories and 20 plus years is a long time, it’s a lifetime ago for far too many. LTC Mann shared the response of a veteran wife to her husband’s multiple tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan in the following exchange, “My husband went off to war and the rest of American went to Walmart.” A sentiment that is leaving us dangerously vulnerable at precisely the moment we are facing a greater threat than even that of 9/11. This threat is detailed in the report published by The Transatlantic Intelligence Consortium. The TIC is a think tank made up of former intelligence officers and counterterrorism experts from the US, Canada, Europe and Australia. The title can be found on Amazon, AL-QAEDA 2.0 The Upcoming Attack on The United States and Europe Unveiled. The following is an excerpt from the book:
We cannot stop this attack; the plan is set in motion. Al-Qaeda, in the past three years, trained and executed the first parts of the plot and its fighters, the ones executing the plan, are already amongst us. They arrived in the past years with large streams of immigrants to Europe and to the US….This book is a call to action. It is a reminder that freedom and safety are never guaranteed, they are preserved through vigilance, resilience, and the unyielding commitment to protect one another. We must act now to ensure that the horrors of the past are never repeated and that our future remains secure from those who seek to destroy it.
Since our politicians are ignoring the warnings and our agencies are handcuffed by their own failings, “We The People” must sound the alarm to our families and neighbors. We must prepare for the types of attacks we have witnessed in Mumbai and in Israel on October 7, 2023. We must be more vigilant than at any other time in history. These terrorists are not coming, they are here, and we are the last line of defense. No one is coming to save us; it is up to each other and history has proven that we are more than capable. We must wake from the slumber where our dreams tell us to fear not because the terrorists are over “there” because again, they are “HERE!”
Every citizen must reach out to their elected officials, Sheriffs, police chiefs and other first responders. We must make them listen to the call to arms being sounded by our veteran war fighters who are getting these warnings directly from the Al Qaeda training camps now covering Afghanistan. Send them to The Shawn Ryan Show on YouTube and specifically to the most recent episode 149, with Sarah Adams. If you cannot find the 2 hours to listen, then I urge you to fast-forward to the 1 hour and 13 minute mark. You surely have 45 minutes to prepare yourself and your family. Because no one else is coming to the rescue of America, we are the last hope of a free and safe society.
Finally, the reports indicate that there are over 1,000 Al Qaeda and ISIS trained terrorist here awaiting the next phase of their plan. They reportedly will work in 8-12 man teams and will hit multiple cities across the US and Europe simultaneously. (An additional 1,000 terrorist are deployed to Europe) Some cities of concern are New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami, Detroit, Houston, and the Twin Cities. While these are primary sources, additional targets will be located in smaller areas and may be spawned by “copycats” who are here as legal immigrants from various war-torn nations. Vigilance is key and having a plan is imperative.
For more information, please order the book mentioned earlier, watch episodes #81, #116, and #149 on The Shawn Ryan Show (SRS) with Sarah Adams. Shawn Ryan himself is a former Navy Seal and CIA operative. In addition, on the SRS you can see LTC(Ret) Scott Mann in episode #135 and hear firsthand his warnings brought directly to the American people from the few assets left in Afghanistan.
