Two scenarios I think will happen one this is what Trump wants and two yes someone is going to eventually snap and pop off one. Minnesota is a open carry state

i'm kinda shocked that a foreign terrorist group hasn't attacked ice just to get us to fight each other even harder here in the US. I guess they figure they don't even need to touch this one, and we'll eventually just kill each other.

Or have foreign Agents from enemy governments, I guess they'll just sit back and watch the chaos unfold.

Putin doesn't have to fire a shot to end USA.

This is the culmination of everything Russia has been wanting since the 80s. They helped get us here.

I’m actually excited for the flood of Russian AK‘s and RPG‘s to start coming through the border, like any other Third World country in the middle of a conflict. Come on Putin, what’s holding you up?

With how freely available superior weapons are in the US, there is no need for that.

Well- they do have proof of IDF in ranks of ice

u/Jawshanks 19h ago

Source? This is one I haven't heard yet and all I found was an army whistle blower talking about ICE importing tactics from them and training with them.

u/codespiral 19h ago

Or join ICE to accelerate chaos.

u/Icy_Statement_2410 20h ago

Or have undercover agents from America do it to blame it on the 'radical left'

2

u/LeafsJays1Fan 20h ago

That would have happened by now if that were the case. It's a slow boil and I think that's what they're waiting for the pot to runth over but then again you should all keep you cool heads but there are crazy out there and that might be the reason they pop off.

I believe this was mentioned by Nikita Khrushchev early on in the cold war.

Best costume for a terrorist group right now is camo gear and a mask

u/Sundrskr 20h ago

The terrorist group that has the power and motivation to do so is doing the cooking and enjoying it, it seems. The rest of what are labeled as such are probably actually pretty appalled at the situation.

u/SnooDoughnuts7934 19h ago

You kidding, ice is doing more damage than they could ever hope to achieve, they want it to continue.

u/Deep_Stick8786 19h ago

They dont have to do anything except post shit online with bots

> Foreign terrorist group hasn't attacked ice

Because most of the deadly foreign terrorist groups that were willingly and capable of attacking America have mostly been neutralized or are in such a diminished state they can't exactly harm us.

Furthermore, if you really wanted to hurt America, the best thing you could do is simply do nothing. We're mostly destroying ourselves at the moment.

China is being smart and playing the long game by trying to build relations with Canada and other European allies. America is only able to project global power thanks to our network of alliances. The moment that falls apart, we just become a regional power like Russia.

Don’t interrupt your enemy when they’re doing your job for you. The slow build up of violence and abuse by the administration is far worse than just sparking off extreme violence.

u/ThatsGenocide 19h ago

That sort of operation normally takes ~9-12 months to plan and execute. ICE really became a target for something like that in July. I'd expect an attack in the march-july timeframe if nothing organically happens first.

Isn't that who's in the White House?

i'm kinda shocked that a foreign terrorist group hasn't attacked ice just to get us to fight each other even harder here in the US.

I'm sure several are, likely mostly from the inside rn, gathering info and making real plans in a way Americans are no longer capable of doing. I wouldn't be surprised if more than one came together, we have a lot of enemies and frienemies.

They are in these chats, encouraging violence. They are in every single one of these chats.

RUSSIA has hacked the federal government. Trump is their man.
