(ADD ME - THIS ARTICLE WAS PUBLISHED BEFORE ATTACK IN MOSCOW AIRPORT)
The next terrorist attack will occur worldwide in the coming months. Forget about the theft
planes because terrorists never steal a plane. You know that people on board are not going to stay quiet and do nothing.
The safety of our airports is a joke, we have been reactionary rather than proactive in developing strategies that are truly effective.
For example:
1. The technology of our airports is obsolete. We look metal and the new explosives are now made of plastic.
2. One idiot tried to burn his shoes with fire. Because of that, now everyone must remove their shoes. A group of idiots tried to bring aboard liquid explosives. Now we can not carry liquids on board. He says he is waiting for some suicidal maniac carry liquid explosives under their clothes, then the airport security will have us all traveling naked ...!!
Each strategy we have is reactive and not proactive.
3. We only focus on security when people head for the exits. If there is a future terrorist attack on an airport will target the most busy time in the front desk when and where passengers are checked. It would be very easy for someone to take two suitcases of explosives, walk towards a row of check busy, ask someone you care for your bags for a minute while they run to take a drink and detonate BEFORE security even gets involved.
In Israel the security check the bags BEFORE people can even enter the airport.
The next terrorist attack include suicide bombers and non-suicide in places where large numbers of people congregate (if in the EU - for example - could be a attack directed at Disneyland, the casinos of Las Vegas, New York, San Francisco or Chicago.) Attack will also include shopping malls, rush hour trains, train stations , etc. as well as rural areas. The attack is characterized by simultaneous detonations (to terrorists like big impact).
Terrorists have no need to use suicide bombers in many of the largest cities because in places like the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, you can just park a car full of explosives and leave.
It is well known in intelligence circles but our governments do not want to "frighten people" with the facts. The world is rapidly turning into a "different place" and discussion topics as global warming and political correctness will be totally irrelevant.
a note of encouragement in the world do not have to worry about being attacked .... nuke the terrorists will not use sophisticated weapons. Like suicide as first choice. It's cheap, is easy, effective and have infinite abundance of young militants who want more than anything "to find his destiny."
The next level of terrorists will not come from abroad. In its place will be "native", having been educated in our schools and universities. We must find those "students" who travel and return to and from the Middle East . These young terrorists are more dangerous because they know our language and fully understand our habits, but we will not know / understand nothing about them.
Americans are foreign and uneducated about the terrorist threat will inevitably face. U.S. still has in their intelligence networks, only a handful of people who speak Arabic and farsi and says it is critical that we change this fact SOON.
So What can we do to protect us as citizens or people in government?
From the perspective of intelligence, need to stop relying on satellites and technology for intelligence. Instead, we need to keep the handful of human intelligence - in Israel, Ireland and England as well as other countries, both from an infiltration perspective as well pay attention and believe that citizens have the conscience to help.
need to engage and educate ourselves as citizens. Our governments believe that "we can not handle the truth" and are committed to panic thinking that if we understand the reality of terrorism and this is a fatal error.
recently performed a safety test in the U.S. Congress and the mayors, placing an empty suitcase on five heavily traveled in five major cities.
results?
No one called 911 or sought a policeman to check them. In fact, in Chicago, someone tried to steal the bag!
comparison, citizens of Israel are so well "trained." An unattended bag or package will be reported in seconds by people who know how to scream publicly, "suitcase unattended." The area will be quickly and calmly evacuated by the citizens themselves.
Unfortunately, the U.S. and Europe have not yet been sufficiently hurt by terrorism for their governments fully understand the need to educate their citizens or to understand that their citizens are those who will inevitably become the first line defense against terrorism. Remember
the high number of children who were in preschool and kindergarten after 9 / 11, who were "lost" without parents to pick and also could think about our schools do not have plans for better care students until the parents may be there (in New York City were days in some cases).
The emphasis is on the importance of having a plan that suits the whole family how to respond in the event of a terrorist emergency. We must demand that schools develop action plans.
Does your family know what to do if you can not contact either by phone? Where would meet in an emergency? Everyone should have a plan that is easy enough to remember and follow even for younger children.
A bad example is the U.S. government has a plan in force, which in the case of another terrorist attack, the facilities will be immediately cut the use of cell phones, blackberries, etc. each person, as this is preferred source of communication used by terrorists and is often the way that their bombs are detonated. So how do you communicate with your loved ones in case you can not talk?
You need a plan.
Prepare contingency plans with those who matter. It is better to have proper plans and never have to use them, not have them and then realize that I needed.
You decide to be pro-active and active, or just let things happen ...!!
