In the past week, U.S. officials have announced charges in five terrorism probes in five states, including: Denver-CO, New York-NY, Dallas-TX, Springfield-IL and Quantico-VA. While some analysts dismiss the rise of plots as being sheer coincidence and happenstance, it is a convergence of events unparalleled since the September 11, 2001, attacks.
Analysts do admit that, while the five events do not appear linked, they do involve suspects of a similar socio-economic profile. Their profiles are strikingly similar to European Muslims, with the suspects tending to be less well-integrated into mainstream society; in many cases they have faced economic difficulties and unemployment.
COMMENTS:
Anyone in the business of national security will tell you that you need a lot of skill, diligence and luck to crack these cases. It’s the luck part the worries me. I am not so quick to dismiss the rising number in such a casual manner. The fact that we have this many cases all at once, although not connected, leads me to believe that many, many more plots are breeding as you read this. Keep your eyes open and, as far as I’m concerned, your racial profiling antennas fully attuned. I don’t care if that’s politically correct or not; when it comes to the safety of America and her citizens, you can toss “political correctness” out the window.
