Homeland Security Warns That Upcoming Oct. 7 Attacks Anniversary Could

Just when you thought things were already as interesting as possible: On Friday, the Department of Homeland Security released a warning that the upcoming first anniversary of the heinous October 7, 2023, attacks by Hamas on Israel could spark violence in the United States.

The FBI and Department of Homeland Security on Friday warned that the upcoming one-year anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel could motivate some people to engage in violence within the United States.

In a public service announcement, authorities said the anniversary may motivate extremists and others to engage in hate crimes and provoke violence.

“Over the past year, we have observed violent extremist activity and hate crimes in the United States linked to the conflict,” the PSA states.

“Jewish, Muslim, or Arab institutions—including synagogues, mosques/Islamic centers, and community centers—and large public gatherings, such as memorials, vigils, or other lawful demonstrations, present attractive targets for violent attacks or for hoax threats by a variety of threat actors, including violent extremists and hate crime perpetrators,” it said.

That last sentence is something of an understatement. These are, of course, precisely the kinds of institutions and gatherings that we should expect to be targeted, just as the Re’im music festival was targeted in Israel in October 2023. Note, though, that Homeland Security, other than this rather broad statement, offers no idea from which quarter we might expect such acts to come – although we may very well guess that it would most likely come from the same sort of ideology that drove the October 7th attack on Israel, sparking a conflict which continues even today.

Maybe one more good “Queers for Palestine” parade will settle things down.

While this warning is serious and we should take it as such, the one thing the opposition in this current conflict of civilization vs. savagery has taught us is that their leadership is evil but not necessarily stupid. There is a saying in military circles that we are always training and preparing to fight the last war, and that applies as well to the current clash; the use of airliners on 9/11, the use of pressure cooker bombs at the Boston Marathon, the use of paragliders to infiltrate terrorists on October 7th – all of those tactics were unexpected. And on our side, nobody in Hezbollah before September expected to be killed by an exploding pager or hand-held radio. These kinds of… innovations, will no doubt continue.

Here’s the elephant in the room: It’s going to happen here.

Yes, I said it’s going to. Not “it might.” There may be small attacks here and there; or, there may be an Oct 7th-style attack, coordinated, planned, and carried out on one or two days, scaled up to the United States. But it’s going to happen here. We’ve as much as guaranteed it by throwing open our borders and allowing in millions, many if not most of them young, single, military-age men, unscreened, unvetted, largely unknown. We let them in and sent them on their way into the United States with no idea where they came from, where they were going, or what they intended to do when they got there. There are roughly 11 million – minimum – illegal aliens present in the United States right now, and if one percent of them harbor ill intent toward America and the American people, that’s an army of 110,000, ready to engage in offensive operations.

If – when – it happens, Homeland Security’s dire warning is going to look like wild, cheery optimism.
