🇺🇸🗣🇦🇫❗️🇺🇸 — 🏴 ZeroHedge | Former CIA Officer Warns: 1,000 Al-Qaeda Fighters In US For Next Homeland Attack | January 1, 2025:
"In a recent discussion on the Shawn Ryan Show, former CIA targeting officer Sarah Adams warned of a potentially devastating attack planned by Al-Qaeda terrorists on American soil.
The interview offers significant insights into what may be unfolding, as Al-Qaeda sleeper cells could be activating in the wake of the New Orleans terrorist attack and a possible vehicle-borne improvised explosive device (VBIED) in the rear of a rented Tesla Cybertruck that exploded outside Trump's hotel in Las Vegas just hours later.
Ryan asked Adams: "I just want to clarify. You are 100% certain that there are 1,000 plus Al-Qaeda-trained fighters within the US borders?"
Adams, currently a global threat advisor with extensive experience in Middle Eastern affairs, responded: "Well, Al-Qaeda says they trained and deployed a thousand for this attack.

These updates have taken on a new meaning in light of the ongoing Iran war, which has exposed the limitation of American air power and missile strike ability in accomplishing the goal of regime change. The wars in Ukraine and Iran have drained the US of difficult to replace defensive and offensive missiles while bases in the Persian Gulf are being obliterated by Iranian missile and drone attacks, leaving few options on the table for muscling the Strait of Hormuz out of Iranian hands outside of either ...
