🇺🇸🗣🇦🇫❗️🇺🇸 — 🏴 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. First off, I think there are more than a thousand Al-Qaeda members in the United States, but for the Homeland Attack, that number is based on what Al-Qaeda is saying, so they could exaggerate it; however, they did have about 1,400 in the Hamas Attack so the number is not off from what they did in the first round of attacks."

Feds warn [again] of ongoing cyberattacks on controllers (PLCs).
A joint (FBI/NSA/CISA/DOJ/DOE/EPA) advisory has again warned that cyberattacks are targeting the Siemens S7 PLCs used across "critical manufacturing, energy, water & wastewater, chemical, food & agriculture, and commercial facilities."
The advisory specifies "This is not a theoretical risk—it is an active threat" (which feels like LLM to me with the "not an X but Y" and em-dash, but hey ... let's set aside the issue of intelligence agencies using ChatGPT to craft their advisories :-p )
Actors are scanning the internet for exposed/insecure Siemens S7 devices and using AI-generated exploitation scripts to access and control them.
This tracks with the recent attacks on water systems in multiple states recently, and the threat escalation throughout the year, generally blamed on "Iranian hackers" such as Handala. It's been a drip-drip-drip in the mockingbird media which seems to be setting the stage for the WEF's ...
A teenager was murdered and his testicles removed by a gang who believed they could sell them for nearly £100,000 on the black market, Indian police have said.
The suspects, allegedly inspired by a social media video promoting a false claim about the value of human testicles, killed Rehan, aged 17, before cutting his testicles off with a blade.
Police arrested the prime suspect, Zoheb Khan, a 20-year-old business student, and Aamir Qureshi, 18, and detained three minors.
Investigators alleged that Khan recruited the group and convinced them that testicles could fetch about 12 million Indian rupees (£92,465) on the black market in the Gulf.
