Homeland Security bulletin warns of weaponized drones and threat to aviation

By GENEVA SANDS
Nov 9, 2017, 7:33 PM ET

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued an updated terror bulletin on Thursday highlighting the threat of weaponized drones, chemical attacks and the continued targeting of commercial aircraft.
"We continue to face one of the most challenging threat environments since 9/11, as foreign terrorist organizations exploit the internet to inspire, enable or direct individuals already here in the homeland to commit terrorist acts," reads the bulletin.

The National Terrorism Advisory System bulletin, which replaced the old color-coded system, is used to give the public and local law enforcement a summary about ongoing and potentially new terror threats.

"The current bulletin introduces unmanned aircraft systems as potential threats and highlights sustained concern regarding threats against commercial aviation and air cargo," said DHS acting press secretary Tyler Houlton in a statement.
There's been an "uptick in terrorist interest" in using unmanned aerial systems as weapons in the United States and other western countries, according to a senior DHS official.

These tactics have been used by terrorists on the battlefield, and the department wants to "guard against those tactics being exported to the west," said the official.
The official said that DHS wants to be "forward leaning" about seeing what terrorists are doing overseas and tactics they might adopt in the future.
Since the last bulletin, concerns about terrorist targeting aviation sector have grown, said the official.

"[T]errorists continue to target commercial aviation and air cargo, including with concealed explosives," reads the updated bulletin.
DHS has been implementing wide-ranging security measures for all airports and airlines that fly directly to the U.S. In June, the administration announced "enhanced screening" of passengers and their electronic devices, as well as "seen and unseen" security around the aircraft and inside the airport.
Terrorists still see "aviation as the crown jewel target," said former DHS Secretary John Kelly, now the president's cheif of staff, at the time of the announcement.
The measures, which are being rolled out in phases, are aimed at detecting concealed explosives, insider threats and identifying suspicious passengers.
Current acting DHS Secretary Elaine Duke has been urging countries to adopt these measures on all flights, not just those that are direct to the U.S., according to a DHS official.

The new bulletin also warns of the use of "poisons or toxins," which the DHS official says there has been increased chatter about in the terror realm.
The "big picture" is that the homeland security fight is shifting, said the senior DHS official. The department's response to the terror threat is adapting as ISIS is close to defeat in safe havens, but continues to have branches and affiliates around the world, according to DHS.
DHS is focused on the next phase of the fight, according to the senior DHS official.

Truth be told, I like Ron Whites proposal for a Heightened State of Awareness System. It is simple and only needs you to remember two heightened states:

1) Go find a helmet
2) Put on the damn helmet

Homeland Security is the biggest joke of the 21st century. And the best umbrella salesmen in the entire world.

(TSA is a very close second.)

Anything that can be used to kill is a threat.......... but tools don't kill, "muslims" do.

"We continue to face one of the most challenging threat environments since 9/11, as foreign terrorist organizations exploit the internet to inspire, enable or direct individuals already here in the homeland to commit terrorist acts,"

And I my fair city, immigration for hostile nations continue at a brisk pace. There are services that invite, settle and connect them to get hooked up to the socialist teat right off the boat.

Now that they're all warm and cozy, let's see what inspired act against the great satan we can commit.

We can throw all that right on top of The resilent homocide rate.

These bulletins gives me a safe and secure sense of well being.
Rant off, for now.

I thought that was Tom “I lost reelection to a dead man” Ridge who came up with the color coded warning system that would never see “Blue” or “Green” ever!

Also heard in the news that since Air Marshals perform no discernible function inside the airplane and until such time as they are disbanded, they will be deployed outside the aircraft to shoot down the “real” threat posed by drones.

In addition to the “emergency flotation device” installed under, beside, or between your seat there is going to be an individual MOPP and gas mask installed in the overhead luggage compartment in case of an inflight deployment of chemical weapons. (Note: all personal luggage will have to be checked due to the lack of space within the airplane for reasons of liability and hazard.)

The DHS is always looking for ways to surrender your freedoms and the ability to safely travel from home to work or vacation without being subjected to radiation, groping, invasion of privacy and intimidation or dignity (especially minor children.) All citizens are guilty until proven and deemed to be safe and not threatening - by a highly trained and professional workforce of people who couldn’t get a job at McDonald’s or stay in touch with their parole officer.

The FBI will also be initiating a new program to add life-like printable 3D images of your fingerprints and facial features into a national database so they can unlock your smartphone more than 48-Hours after your death.

[This is satire and not be taken as actual or realistic expectations or information. Well, except that Gov. Ridge did lose to a man who died of natural causes before the election and was subsequently given a job to run the most powerful government agency outside the Pentagon in the history of the country - that’s true.]
