The Unfiltered Voice of Christian Preparedness
🧠 BLUF
Intel from operators and analysts like Sarah Adams points to a new phase: multi-team, multi-day, Mumbai-style warfare on U.S. soil — not one bomber, one mall, one “incident.”
The target set is everyday life: supermarkets, churches, hospitals, trains, nightclubs, and roadways, hit in coordinated waves while first responders are ambushed and hospitals are attacked.
The fighters aren’t amateurs. Think Fallujah-grade combatants, trained in 360° shoot houses — often built by us — with real-time comms, suicide vests, and no exfil plan.
This isn’t “an active shooter.” It’s urban warfare imported into your zip code, on purpose, so Americans — especially veterans — feel Iraq and Afghanistan at home.

📡 CONTEXT
Operators and analysts tracking al-Qaeda and allied jihadist planning are sounding the same note: the next major homeland attack is built around teams, not lone wolves; days, not minutes; multiple sites, not a single crime scene. The design echoes Mumbai, Westgate Mall, October 7th, and urban battles from Iraq and Syria — but aimed squarely at American civilian life where we live, work, and play. Supermarkets, churches, ERs, trains, nightclubs, and highways become battle spaces; first responders become primary targets, not rescuers.
⚠️ THREAT PROFILE — WHAT THEY’RE TRAINING FOR
🎯 Target Set: Everyday America
These are the places in the crosshairs:
Supermarkets & shopping complexes
Nightclubs, churches, and public transportation
Hospitals and ERs – not as safe zones, but as deliberate targets to cripple medical response
Roadblocks & choke points to ambush arriving police, EMS, and fire
Goal:
Make Americans feel what terrorists felt in Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan — but here.
Break the mental resilience of veterans and civilians by showing that home is a battlefield too.
👥 Team Structure & Tactics
5–7 man teams and 8–10 man teams operating in parallel
Backup cells ready to execute if a first team gets rolled up
Real-time comms between attackers and remote handlers
Dynamic targeting: ability to shift targets/methods on the fly based on police response and media coverage
Training in 360° ballistic shoot houses, often U.S.-built facilities left behind overseas
Heavy emphasis on CQB (Close Quarters Battle) and distributed, local attacks
Combat experience on par with Fallujah-era insurgents — a level U.S. law enforcement has never faced at scale on home ground
🧱 Behavior & Mindset
No exfil, no escape plan — fight to the death is the baseline
Tip-of-the-spear personnel: best-trained, most ideologically committed fighters deployed to the West
Attackers likely drugged to amp aggression and blunt fear/inhibition
Estimated 10% as suicide bombers — on the order of 75–100 individuals in a full campaign
Chemical/caustic additives in suicide vests, turning detonations into dirty hazmat scenes
🎭 Specific Tactics & Deception
Wave attacks:
First bomber or gunman hits a target
As crowds surge and responders enter, second bomber walks in and detonates in the chaos
Impersonation plays:
Attackers dressed as law enforcement, IDF, medics, ambulance crews
Fake checkpoints and fake rescue teams to lure victims and responders
Booby traps:
Teddy bears, backpacks, and other objects seeded to attract curious civilians
Secondary IEDs aimed at those who pick them up or cluster around them
Hospital-focused attacks:
ER entrances, waiting rooms, triage zones, and ambulance bays deliberately targeted
Objective: cripple medical care and multiply casualty counts
Road ambushes:
Obstacles and “accidents” staged to slow patrol cars, fire engines, and ambulances
Kill zones set along likely response routes
🆚 HOW THIS DIFFERS FROM “NORMAL” TERRORISM
Most Americans — and most cops — still think in terms of:
“Lone shooter in a mall.”
“Single bombing at one site.”
This framework is fundamentally different:
Multiple Fallujah-grade squads with modern comms, not one disgruntled loner.
Multi-site, multi-day operations, not a single 15-minute attack.
Hospitals and responders treated as prime targets, not protected space.
Suicide vests, booby traps, and hazmat payloads built into the plan from the start.
This is urban warfare inside your area code — not “an incident,” not “a disturbance,” not “a lone wolf.”

🧍♂️ FOR EVERYDAY AMERICANS — PRACTICAL STEPS
You can’t control the threat design. You can control how un-ready you are.
Know Your Local Soft Targets
Identify the supermarkets, churches, hospitals, malls, and transit hubs you use most.
Pay attention to entrances, exits, choke points, parking layouts, and what “normal” looks like.
Build a Family Response Plan
Pick a primary and secondary rally point away from high-profile targets.
Decide who grabs which kids, who calls 911, and what happens if phones go down.
Practice a simple drill: “If something bad starts here, what do we do in the first 30 seconds?”
Get Off the X, Then Help
If an attack starts: move away from the threat, use cover, break line of sight.
Only render aid if the immediate area is no longer actively contested — second waves and secondary devices are part of the playbook.
Train Beyond Headlines
Basic Stop the Bleed skills (tourniquets, pressure, wound packing).
Situational awareness: noticing pre-attack behaviors (loitering, odd clothing, staging vehicles, people filming security).
Churches, Schools, Hospitals — Speak Up
If your church or kids’ school has no security plan, that’s a problem. Offer to help start one.
Ask politely but firmly: “Who locks doors? Who calls 911? Who meets police? Where’s the trauma kit?”

Preparedness Essentials — Partners We Trust
Why here: if war-zone tactics are coming to where you live, comms, medical gear, and legal defense are not luxuries. They’re necessities.
👉 Consider vetted options for training tools (Mantis), legal defense (CCWSafe), carry/EDC (Vertx), and protective equipment (Maverick Tactical).
👮♂️ FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT & FIRST RESPONDERS — PUBLIC-SAFE REMINDERS
This scenario is above the standard “active shooter” playbook. Train and posture accordingly.
Think Multi-Site from the First Call
Assume the first attack may not be the main effort.
Expect decoys, car fires, and hoax calls to pull units away from the real objective.
Protect the Protectors
Treat approach routes, ER bays, and staging areas as potential kill zones.
Use overwatch and staggered arrivals instead of stacking cruisers in obvious spots.
Hospital & EMS Integration
Conduct joint drills with hospitals on in-hospital attacker and ER surge under fire scenarios.
Plan for hot / warm / cold zones around medical facilities, not just the primary attack site.
Comms Discipline
Assume adversary OSINT and possible SIGINT: don’t hand them your plan over open channels.
Use plain but tight language, avoid speculation, and maintain clear incident command despite chaos.
Learn from Overseas Urban Combat
Incorporate lessons from Mumbai, Nairobi, Paris, and October 7th into training scenarios – stacked assaults, multiple teams, hostiles in mixed civilian crowds.
Work with Guard/Reserve and vetted veterans who have CQB and urban warfare experience to stress-test local plans.
🛰️ WHAT TO WATCH — OPERATIONAL INDICATORS
At the national and regional level, these are early-warning themes:
Increased militant chatter or propaganda emphasizing “make America feel what we felt” or referencing veteran towns and hospitals.
Theft or stockpiling of medical gear, uniforms, or emergency vehicles, and reports of fake medics or fake cops probing response protocols.
Recon and probing of ER entrances, ambulance bays, and hospital security, not just malls and stadiums.
Multi-city “tests” — small arson events, hoax bomb threats, or minor attacks spaced close together to measure response patterns.

🧠 SDN ANALYSIS — JON WHEATON
Three things should stick in your mind. Scale: we’re not talking about one angry guy with a rifle. We’re talking teams of 5–10, multiple sites, backup cells, and days of rolling contact. Training: they’re not improvising; they’re using our old ranges, our shoot houses, lessons from Mumbai and Fallujah, and sometimes even training we gave them before they flipped. Mindset: they’re not negotiating and they’re not fleeing. They’re fighting to the death with suicide bombers and booby traps built into the script.
If you’re still picturing men in sandals with rusty AKs, you’re behind the curve. This is war-zone doctrine deliberately imported into American neighborhoods to make you feel what they felt. The answer isn’t despair; it’s a sober, collective decision to harden what matters, train like we mean it, and stop pretending that “normal” will protect us.
