CH 1) HEADLINE STORY: THE TERRORIST THREAT UPDATE
Turn the following into a written article …
The current SDN terrorist threat level is at CONDITION ORANGE. What does that mean?
Colonel Jeff Cooper’s original “combat mindset”
A modernized version with CONDITION BLACK …
The current intelligence on terrorist threats to the United States in 2025 indicates a persistent and multifaceted risk, with both domestic and foreign elements contributing to a high-threat environment. Here’s a concise overview based on available information:
Domestic Terrorism Threats:
Lone Actors and Small Groups: The primary threat within the U.S. stems from lone offenders or small groups motivated by a range of ideologies, including anti-government sentiments, partisan extremism, and Salafi-jihadism. These actors often radicalize online and are difficult to detect due to their lack of formal group affiliations. (https://www.csis.org/analysis/global-terrorism-threat-assessment-2025) (https://www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisory/national-terrorism-advisory-system-bulletin-may-24-2023)
Ideological Drivers: Factors such as polarizing sociopolitical issues, including the 2024 election cycle, misinformation, conspiracy theories, and social issues like misogyny, anti-LGBTQ+ sentiment, and antisemitism, are fueling domestic violent extremism (DVE). (https://www.hstoday.us/featured/2025-homeland-security-threat-forecast-part-i-terrorism/)
Recent Trends: From 2016 to 2024, domestic terrorist attacks and plots against government targets motivated by partisan political beliefs nearly tripled compared to the previous 25 years, often executed by individuals without ties to organized groups. (https://www.csis.org/analysis/rising-threat-anti-government-domestic-terrorism-what-data-tells-us)
FBI and DHS Assessments: The FBI notes a significant rise in domestic terrorism investigations, with a 357% increase from 2013 to 2021, but much of this was a charade investigating non-existent white supremacy threats. The threat is particularly acute from lone actors radicalized online by ANTIFA, BLM (and other shady groups), targeting soft targets like critical infrastructure, faith-based institutions, schools, and government facilities. (https://www.fbi.gov/investigate/terrorism)[](https://www.gao.gov/blog/rising-threat-domestic-terrorism-u.s.-and-federal-efforts-combat-it)
Foreign Terrorism Threats:
Foreign Terrorist Organizations (FTOs): Groups like ISIS and al-Qaeda continue to express intent to conduct or inspire attacks in the U.S., with an increased threat as a direct result of Obama, Biden and Mayorkas flooding our country with invaders. The New Orleans attack on January 1, 2025, inspired by ISIS, underscores the ongoing risk of homegrown violent extremists (HVEs) motivated by foreign jihadist propaganda.(https://www.fpri.org/article/2025/01/trends-in-terrorism-whats-on-the-horizon-in-2025/)[](https://homeland.house.gov/2025/01/22/house-homeland-releases-updated-terror-threat-snapshot-assessment-in-wake-of-new-years-day-isis-inspired-terrorist-attack-in-new-orleans/)
Middle East Influence: The Israel-Hamas conflict and other Middle Eastern geopolitical events continue to galvanize extremist sentiments, potentially inspiring attacks in the U.S. (https://www.dhs.gov/archive/news/2024/10/02/dhs-2025-homeland-threat-assessment-indicates-threat-domestic-and-foreign-terrorism) (https://www.hstoday.us/featured/2025-homeland-security-threat-forecast-part-i-terrorism/)
Border Concerns: There are concerns about vulnerabilities over the past four years at the U.S. southwest border, with reports of individuals on terrorist watchlists being apprehended and fears of undetected “gotaways” with potential malicious intent. (https://homeland.house.gov/2024/10/03/new-house-homeland-terror-threat-snapshot-documents-persistent-deadly-terrorism-threats-to-the-homeland/)
Emerging Threats: Posts on X and some assessments highlight concerns about sleeper cells and coordinated attacks by groups like Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) or al-Qaeda.
Government Response and Mitigation:
DHS and FBI Efforts: The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and FBI are enhancing information sharing, conducting threat briefings, and providing grants (e.g., $450 million through the Nonprofit Security Grant Program) to bolster security at high-risk sites.(https://www.dhs.gov/archive/news/2024/10/02/dhs-2025-homeland-threat-assessment-indicates-threat-domestic-and-foreign-terrorism)(https://www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisory/national-terrorism-advisory-system-bulletin-may-24-2023)
Focus on Prevention: Programs like the Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting Initiative and community awareness campaigns aim to identify and disrupt threats early. (https://www.dhs.gov/ntas/advisory/national-terrorism-advisory-system-bulletin-may-24-2023)
Visa and Border Security: Initiatives like the Visa Security Program and Biometric Identification Transnational Migration Alert Program aim to prevent known or suspected terrorists from entering the U.S. (https://www.ice.gov/about-ice/hsi/investigate/terrorism-national-security-threats)
Policy Shifts: Recent executive actions emphasize stringent vetting of immigrants to mitigate risks from foreign nationals who may support terrorism or hold hostile ideologies. (https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-the-united-states-from-foreign-terrorists-and-othernational-security-and-public-safety-threats/)
Critical Considerations:
The threat landscape is dynamic, with the incursion by countless terrorists over the past four years posing the greatest challenge due to their unpredictability.(https://www.fbi.gov/investigate/terrorism)
Some sources, particularly posts on X, suggest heightened risks from specific groups or sleeper cells.
The interplay of international conflicts (e.g., Israel-Hamas, Russia-Ukraine) and domestic polarization continues to exacerbate the risk of both inspired and direct attacks. (https://www.fpri.org/article/2025/01/trends-in-terrorism-whats-on-the-horizon-in-2025/)(https://www.hstoday.us/featured/2025-homeland-security-threat-forecast-part-i-terrorism/)
Conclusion:
The U.S. faces a high terrorism threat in 2025, driven primarily by groups of radical Islamic terrorists, with foreign terrorist organizations like cartels posing a secondary but persistent risk. Enhanced government coordination, public vigilance, and targeted security measures are critical to mitigating these threats. For the most current and specific advisories, refer to DHS’s National Terrorism Advisory System (www.dhs.gov/advisories).
Note: Always approach unverified claims, especially from social media, with skepticism and cross-reference with authoritative sources like DHS or FBI reports.

Why Easter Weekend? Communists and Islamic terrorists hate Christians and this weekend has very specific value to these groups who seek to do us harm. Faith-based institutions the most likely targets due to their symbolic value and large gatherings. The holiday’s prominence could attract attention from extremists seeking high-impact attacks.
Key Factors Driving Threats:
-
Polarization and Election Fallout: The 2024 election cycle has amplified extremist rhetoric, potentially mobilizing DVEs.
-
Geopolitical Tensions: The Israel-Hamas conflict and Middle East unrest continue to inspire both jihadist and anti-Semitic attacks.
-
Online Radicalization: Social media and encrypted platforms enable rapid recruitment and incitement, especially for lone actors.
What to Watch For:
-
Lone Actor Attacks: Hard to detect, often using simple weapons (guns, vehicles, knives).
-
Critical Infrastructure: Power grids, water systems, or transport hubs are vulnerable to physical or cyber attacks.
-
Soft Targets: Schools, churches, or public events like Easter services are at risk due to low security and high perceived value by terrorists.
The threat level is high but not unprecedented. DHS and FBI emphasize vigilance, reporting suspicious activity (1-866-347-2423), and basic preparedness (e.g., knowing exits, first aid). Check primary sources like DHS.gov or FBI.gov for real-time alerts, and X accounts from people who can be trusted like Survival Dispatch.
The prospect of “swarm” attacks …
We’ve had credible intel for years detailing how Islamic terrorists want to attack multiple venues across the country simultaneously. AQ in particular have stated they want 50,000+ victims in their next attack on the homeland.
We’ve had additional credible intel detailing how organized Islamic terrorists plan to continue their swarm attacks for several days to create chaos and a breakdown of our society. Wargaming has shown that three days of simultaneous attacks will result in nobody going to work, nobody sending their kids to school, absolute chaos in the supply chain and getting food, plus the prospect of attacks on our power grid and comms networks AFTER the attacks have happened for several days.
In addition to this, is the fact that terrorists have plans to attack open air venues with drones carrying aerosolized fentanyl, anthrax, and other compounds.
Plus we know terrorists in America have advanced weaponry that we left behind in Afghanistan such as MANPADS that can take down commercial jets shortly after takeoff or just before landing.

Ways to improve your situational awareness …
Improving situational awareness means sharpening your ability to observe, interpret, and react to your environment, especially in high-risk scenarios like potential terrorist threats. Here’s how to do it, grounded in practical steps:
-
Practice the OODA Loop (Observe, Orient, Decide, Act):
-
Observe: Scan your surroundings constantly. Look for anomalies—people acting nervous, unattended bags, or out-of-place behavior. In crowds, check exits and choke points.
-
Orient: Process what you see. Does it fit the environment? A guy in a heavy coat on a hot day might be trouble.
-
Decide: Choose a course of action—move away, report, or prepare to act.
-
Act: Execute your decision calmly. Practice this cycle in daily life to make it instinctive.
-
-
Minimize Distractions:
-
Ditch the phone obsession. Earbuds out, phones down, eyes up. You can’t spot a threat if you’re scrolling X or listening to music.
-
In public, keep your head on a swivel, especially in high-risk areas like malls, transit hubs, or events.
-
-
Know Your Baseline:
-
Every place has a “normal” - how people move, dress, or act. Learn the baseline for places you frequent (work, church, stores). Deviations (e.g., someone loitering with no purpose) are red flags.
-
Example: At an Easter service, a fidgety stranger avoiding eye contact, wearing unusual clothing, or carrying a bulky bag stands out.
-
-
Train Your Senses:
-
Visual Drills: Play “spot the oddity” in public. Identify three unusual things (e.g., a parked car with someone inside too long). Do this daily.
-
Listen Actively: Tune into sounds—shouts, breaking glass, or sudden silence can signal trouble.
-
Trust Your Gut: If something feels off, don’t ignore it. Instinct often picks up what logic misses.
-
-
Learn Body Language:
-
Study basic cues: clenched fists, sweating, or avoiding eye contact can indicate stress or intent. Books like What Every BODY is Saying by Joe Navarro are solid starting points.
-
Watch for pre-attack indicators: someone reaching into a bag, scanning for security, or pacing.
-
-
Game-Plan Scenarios:
-
Mentally rehearse “what if” situations. At a concert, think: “If a shooter appears, where’s the nearest exit?” At home: “If someone breaks in, what’s my move?”
-
Run tabletop exercises with family. Discuss how to react to an assault or evacuation during Easter weekend events and have a code word that means exit the area immediately. “Avalanche”
-
-
Stay Physically and Mentally Sharp:
-
Fatigue dulls awareness. Get enough sleep and stay fit—running or fighting requires stamina.
-
Practice stress management (e.g., deep breathing) to stay calm under pressure. Panic clouds judgment.
-
-
Take Courses:
-
Enroll in situational awareness or self-defense classes. Programs like Krav Maga or local law enforcement workshops teach practical skills.
-
FEMA’s free online courses (ready.gov) cover emergency awareness basics.
-
-
Use Tools Wisely:
-
Carry a flashlight for dark areas. A tactical pen can be a discreet self-defense tool.
-
Apps like Citizen or FEMA can provide real-time alerts, but don’t rely on them over your own senses.
-
-
Build Community Awareness:
-
Talk to neighbors or church groups about watching for suspicious activity. A tight-knit community is harder to target.
-
Share DHS’s “See Something, Say Something” hotline (1-866-347-2423) with others.
-
-
Get your CCW, get professional firearms training, train on a regular basis to keep your skills sharp. People don’t rise to the occasion, they fall to their level of training.
Practice, practice, practice, regardless of weather. SHTF doesn’t wait for the sun to come out …
file:///Users/chris/Downloads/IMG_0742.mp4</span>
Pro Tip: Make it a habit. Spend 5 minutes daily practicing observation in low-stakes settings (e.g., a coffee shop). Over time, it becomes second nature. Stay alert, not paranoid—fear clouds awareness as much as distraction does.

HOMEWORK
What can our audience do in light of the main topic we discussed on this episode?
The average American can take practical steps to reduce vulnerability to terrorist attacks while staying grounded in reality. Focus on situational awareness: pay attention to your surroundings, especially in crowded places like malls, concerts, or public transit. If something feels off—like unattended bags or sketchy behavior—trust your gut and report it to authorities. Local police and DHS hotlines (1-866-347-2423) are there for a reason.
Learn basic first aid—know how to stop bleeding or do CPR. In a crisis, you might save yourself or someone else before help arrives. FEMA’s got free resources on emergency preparedness (ready.gov). Stock a small go-bag with essentials (water, food, flashlight, meds) in case you need to move fast. If you’re in a high-risk area, know evacuation routes.
On the broader level, stay informed without drowning in fear. Check primary sources like FBI or DHS alerts for credible threats, not just X posts or news hype. If you’re pro-2A, concealed carry where legal - but only if you’re trained and disciplined. Panic shooting helps no one.
Don’t expect the government to save you instantly; they’re often reactive. Community matters - know your neighbors, share info, and watch each other’s backs. Terrorists thrive on chaos, so staying calm and prepared is how you fight back without buying into paranoia or political noise.

CONFLICTED or GROK Q&A
Hypothetical Scenario: Assault During Civil Unrest
It’s a tense summer day in a mid-sized American city. Protests over a controversial local policy have escalated into sporadic riots in certain neighborhoods. You’re a single parent with a 12-year-old daughter, heading home from a grocery run in your car. You’ve taken a detour to avoid the worst of the unrest, but as you stop at a traffic light in a less chaotic area, three aggressive individuals—part of a small mob looting nearby stores—approach your vehicle. They’re shouting, banging on your windows, and demanding you get out or hand over your groceries. One of them brandishes a knife, and another starts trying to open your locked doors. Your daughter is panicking, clutching her Bible from Sunday school, and you’re praying silently for wisdom. You have a concealed carry permit and a pistol holstered under your jacket, but you’re unsure if drawing it will escalate things further. Traffic is blocked, and no police are in sight. You need to act quickly to protect your daughter and escape the situation.
Prepper Question with Christian Morality
In a scenario where you face an assault during civil unrest, how can a Christian reconcile the biblical command to “do no harm” (Romans 13:10) and seek peace with the duty to defend an innocent child from immediate danger, especially when non-lethal options may not be viable? What practical preparations (e.g., situational awareness, de-escalation training, or emergency supplies) and spiritual disciplines (e.g., prayer, studying scripture) can you undertake now to ensure your actions reflect Christ’s love and justice in such a high-stakes moment?
This question challenges you to weigh Christian principles of peace and love against the protective role of a parent, while encouraging proactive prepper strategies and spiritual grounding to navigate the moral tension.
