I mentioned this to several people today, each of which were seeing the same things.
Immediately after 9-11, a LOT of things went into lockdown or high security mode. During the Iraq war, the same things happened.
Government buildings added extra security, placed barricades at parking garages, began checking vehicles or ID's, industrial plants were on high alert, etc... . I know several roads that, if you parked along the shoulder for more than a minute, some law enforcement would stop by to check. I won't go into specifics, but any suspicious activity within certain areas would be immediately acted upon. People, local law enforcement and businesses weren't playing.
Today, with 2 aircraft carrier groups in the Eastern Mediterranean, war between Israel and Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, and who knows how the war may grow... Nothing. Zero. Crickets.
I haven't seen one additional guard at vital public buildings, no new barricades, no new security procedures at hospitals, industrial plants, major office buildings, schools, port facilities, etc.... There has been NO increase in the national security alert level over what it was 6 months ago. No response at all to national security or even local or business security to the possibility of war or the implied threat of domestic terrorism. There isn't even a post-it note on a bulletin board about it.
It seems strange to me that facilities haven't been going into high security mode, despite a potential war and considering threats being made by other nations. Anyone else seeing something different?
Well let me explain: 9-11 was an inside job. (Google: dancing Israelis)
So, the crooks had to go into high security mode to keep up the appearance that USA was REALLY, REALLY attacked by some cloth-heads who were flying impossible flight-paths, while armed with box-cutters - which was the narrative at the time.
It was part of their fear campaign, AND they needed the population-wide chaos for the military recruitment drive, to do the Arab Spring - 7 countries in 5 years - thingie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4cYCqf1LkAE
In this case, the people who are in danger are only some 2 Million poor land-less Palestinians - and USA does not care about Palestinians, even if they are Christians (15% of Palestinians BTW). So the attitude is that Israel will deal with it for the USA, and what USA is doing is: sending some evacuation air-craft for the foreigners that happened to be in the area, and got out to Cyprus, Egypt or whatever. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0adIZmg6sE
Meanwhile, Israel's policy is the Final Solution: to cleanse Israel of those pesky ex-residents of Palestine - to make them diaspora at best. The main thrust appears to be to try and get Egypt to open some tents in the Sinai desert for when the powers that be, open the border. It is just a little bit of ethnic cleansing. Nothing to worry about. If they die of dehydration that's fine.
No danger for USA peeps, and the governing bodies are kinda out of money to do a massive recruits-ment drive, and there are no big plans to invade a bunch of countries, so no high alertses.
Also, USA is being invaded as we speak.
This is it right here... we're already invaded and extra alerts would blow their cover.
The USA funds the Zionists who are bombing Palestine. Where did Israel’s weapons come from?
Mossad and the CIA created Hamas.
That is all you need to know.
I think the biggest difference between what happened on 9/11 and what's going on today is that the attacks are not happening on US soil. It's going on halfway around the world.
No additional security because our government wants a major catastrophe to occur.
I live pretty close to a Marine afb (yes, the Marines have aircraft) and this last week there was a lot more air activity then normal. Almost felt like a war zone with all the noise. Last couple of days have been quieter.
If my memory is accurate there was an anthrax attack to add additionally to the overall panic in 2001. Call it a booster shot by mail.
The DC Beltway Sniper Shooting Spree also later continued the fear/panic into 2002.
Well we don't have GWB or Michael Chertoff up there with a color coded threat level on the news every day.
I was just thinking how uneventful everything was considering the global call to jihad with seemingly no takers and the “you better run, we’re leveling Gaza” threat moments before I logged on here. Wavelengths!
I think the downgrade in terms of quality of people is being underestimated.
People are not what I remember when I was a kid.
That's my opinion.
Very true but there seem to be a hell of a lot of them now.
The bar is pretty high. Some hadji shoots up a temple in a big city, well, we've had terrorist attacks like that plenty of times since 9-11.
Even if they FLEW PLANES INTO A SKYSCRAPER - been done.
There is only 1 thing they can do to get people riled up, and for that they have to pick a city to sacrifice.
Intentional? Foster hate then "stand down" and wait?
Be the best way to attempt a mass dearm, keyword being "attempt"
side point. WTF are two Carrier groups gonna do about Gaza?
it is a dense urban environment.
there has to be another target in the making...
USS Liberty 2.0.
That is another sizable chunk of our military assets.... globalists hamstringing us?
I saw a group of republican senators talking this morning led by Marsha Blackburn. At one point Rick Scott actually said (paraphrased - not exact) if Iran didn't knock it off they would be made to.
Warmongers are pushing for an Iran war. That would bring WW3 with Russia and China joining in.
To give Itan an opportunity to use the pallats if Obama cash against us?
On o e front I think USA is being dissected up. Arizona is going to Mexican overlords. Michigan is going to Hamas over lords. They are trying to split USA like an egg. They can reinforce via the commie country of Canada and the corrupt country of Mexico. Very exciting stuff. Seattle is another avenue they have for China. Before the tidal wave arrives there is a time the water seemingly dissolves and one will see the ground with creatures flopping around. The one seeing might rejoice and claim the swamp is drained and start dancing to their demise. ;)
Once again I'm glad I live in Texas.
Texas is awesome. My step dad was from •there• and he was born in 1902. He passed sometime ago. We would drive there and visit his family. We drove from Nevada. He would tell me many stories about how he grew up and taught me many things. I wish I learned more from him. He would tell me my side won the war. Lol. I would shrug it off while herding the cattle with him. Many things we take for granite.
We are intentionally being left wide open, just like our border, and for the same reason.
We will have to defend ourselves because our nation can no longer be relied upon to do so.
Surprised no border militias have activated yet, at least that I know of
Because the people that would make those decisions are traitors to the USA
Good point, Retaining. I don't see any new security measures either, despite everyone talking about the Middle East war all the time.
Actually where are people talking aside from social media and mockingbird media? I haven't heard a single coworker even mention the Middle East nor overheard any conversations in restaurants. I don't think most normies care, especially outside of the few cities with "protests."
It has cropped up in conversations a lot around me lately. Not me instigating it either.
And we are still at Def-Con 3.
Maybe they are like me and not paranoid?
Complacent perhaps
Security theater, its not the newest thing
Well, judging by the traffic around me is 10 times what it was 20 years ago.
Yeah, if there are less people,they must ALL have gotten cars.
Lockdown traffic was the best part of the covid fiasco. Nobody on the road but so called 'essentials'
Traffic in my area is nearly right back to pre-plandemic levels. I think in my part of the suburbs the amount of people who have already moved out of state have been replaced by the people fleeing Chicago.
I live in kind of a rural area, Do much traffic. All day long, like no one's working? There's help wanted signs everywhere too, is crazy...
Think everyone is hiding and out camping or are they the died unexpectedly crowd? I’ve noticed how not busy the military hospital is where we go. We go often enough to notice fewer patients and staff.
Good points.
The Boomer generation has also been retiring from the workforce and then dying out. Many of them retired early due to the pandemic simply because they didn't want to put up with the mask and vaccine nonsense required at their jobs.
It's the largest generation. They took up a large portion of the workforce. And younger generations just aren't large enough to compensate the loss.
Far more people being proactive about their health instead of blindly trusting hospitals now too
Low birth rates, and of course infertility from the vax and all the GMO crap they feed us.

You don't need to hire anyone new, just redeploy and prioritize personnel differently.
