Hopefully Trump won’t Tweet about this one; such actions angry Mrs. May and Wrath of Khan. I’m not sure about Khan nowadays, but Trump isn’t the enemy the Prime Minister needs to worry about.

“It is in essence an extreme Islamist suicide plot against Downing Street. Essentially police believe that the plan was to launch some sort of improvised explosive device at Downing Street and in the ensuing chaos attack and kill Theresa May, the Prime Minister.”

“This is something which has been pursued over several weeks at least by Scotland Yard, MI5 and West Midlands Police. It came to a head last week with the arrest of two men, by armed police, who earlier today were charged with preparing acts of terrorism.”

Naa’imur Zakariyah Rahman, 20, from north London and Mohammed Aqib Imran, 21, from south-east Birmingham are due to appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday morning.

BRITAIN-EU-POLITICS-BREXIT

May is a bit better protected than the average Brit. Sky News.

This is really much ado about nothing, the antics of some misguided “teens” or something. No reason for Mrs. May to even think about coming close to the Enoch Powell train. No reason to read Camp of the Saints. No need to open her eyes. Nothing at all, here. I probably shouldn’t even be posting this. It is certainly nothing to Tweet about.

I’ll admit: one, I don’t like Twitter in the first place, and; two, Trump’s Tweets seem to get out of hand at times. But, it turns out that being out of hand sometimes actually works to the advantage of international intelligence.

CIA Director Mike Pompeo said at a national security event in Simi Valley, California, over the weekend that Trump’s tweeting has actually yielded helpful intelligence.

The current CIA director sat down with former CIA director Leon Panetta and Fox News host Brett Baier for an hour of discussion on world events from a security perspective at The Reagan National Defense Forum on Saturday.

Baier brought up Trump’s tweets about the Muslim videos and asked Panetta why he thought “it was like playing with fire.”

“When you tweet something like that out there you don’t know what the consequences are going to be, and the consequences could be lives,” Panetta replied solemnly. Baier turned to Pompeo: “One account on Twitter makes your job harder?” he asked. The CIA director’s answer was almost certainly not what the host expected. “No, I don’t know that that’s the case,” he replied. “I’ve actually seen it help us.”

“I have seen things the president has put on his Twitter account actually have a real-world impact on our capacity to understand what’s going on in other places of the world,” Pompeo said. “That is, our adversaries responded to those tweets in ways that were helpful to us to understand command and control issues, who’s listening to what messages, how those messages are resonating around the world,” he added. Panetta seemed taken aback by Pompeo’s answer.

Tweet! Tweet!

Terrorists are ALWAYS Known in Advance, Sometimes Formally, Professionally, and Nefariously

1st Law of Terrorism, Always Known, England, ISIS, MI5, terrorism

First, I’d like to officially claim this:

Perrin’s 1st Law of Terrorism: Terrorists are always known in advance by authorities. Always.

I’ve been saying that over and over for a while (because it’s true); now it’s mine. Thank you.

Second, the how or why of being known may vary. It’s usually because the actor has been investigated or arrested by the police, either in the jurisdiction of the attack or elsewhere, for prior terror activities. Sometimes, maybe more times than one would assume, it’s because the Jihadist(s) have worked for or are working with the government itself.

This is nothing new. Guess who Osama Bin Laden worked for prior to becoming the FBI’s number one most wanted man on Earth. Yeah. Informants, assets, freelancers, contractors, freedom fighters, resistance, spies – many types of relationship are possible. For further example, see whatever the U.S. is doing in Syria right now.

This pattern works in other places too. Places like England. It now seems that Salman Abedi (Manchester Ariana Grande concert Aloha Snackbar-er) and MI5 (British Domestic Intelligence) had such a relationship. Kurt Nimmo explores that:

On this episode of The Geopolitical Report, we uncover Salman Abedi’s, the Manchester suicide bomber, link to British intelligence. MI5 explains that it missed warnings on Abedi despite one sent by the FBI. This is part of a larger pattern. Since the 1990s, the British government has given jihadi terrorists a free hand to preach hate and murder while they worked simultaneously with British secret services. Leading imams Anjem Choudary, Omar Bakri, Abu Hamza al-Masri, and others have cooperated with the government. Intelligence agencies from Spain, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and the Netherlands have repeatedly warned British authorities about the terror plans of these dangerous individuals, and yet they were allowed to continue their work.

Nimmo speculates on the reason behind this; I won’t, here, allowing his theory to stand in for one of mine.

Consider this the next time you’re forced to contemplate Perrin’s 1st Law of Terrorism (soon). It kind of blows a big, gaping, Aloha Snackbar-style crater in that whole “tha govmint gon’ protect you” BS.
