State Department Issues Worldwide Travel Alert "Due To Increased Terrorist Threats"
For the first time since December 2014 - and just in case you were not fearmongered enough (or bullish on US equities enough) - The US State Department just unleashed a worldwide travel alert for the next 3 months. This seems to wreak a little haov at President Obama's "ISIS is contained" narrative...
The State Department alerts U.S. citizens to possible risks of travel due to increased terrorist threats. Current information suggests that ISIL (aka Da’esh), al-Qa’ida, Boko Haram, and other terrorist groups continue to plan terrorist attacks in multiple regions. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics, using conventional and non-conventional weapons and targeting both official and private interests. This Travel Alert expires on February 24, 2016.
Authorities believe the likelihood of terror attacks will continue as members of ISIL/Da’esh return from Syria and Iraq. Additionally, there is a continuing threat from unaffiliated persons planning attacks inspired by major terrorist organizations but conducted on an individual basis. Extremists have targeted large sporting events, theatres, open markets, and aviation services. In the past year, there have been multiple attacks in France, Nigeria, Denmark, Turkey, and Mali. ISIL/Da’esh has claimed responsibility for the bombing of a Russian airliner in Egypt.
U.S. citizens should exercise vigilance when in public places or using transportation. Be aware of immediate surroundings and avoid large crowds or crowed places. Exercise particular caution during the holiday season and at holiday festivals or events. U.S. citizens should monitor media and local information sources and factor updated information into personal travel plans and activities. Persons with specific safety concerns should contact local law enforcement authorities who are responsible for the safety and security of all visitors to their host country. U.S. citizens should:
- Follow the instructions of local authorities. Monitor media and local information sources and factor updated information into personal travel plans and activities.
- Be prepared for additional security screening and unexpected disruptions.
- Stay in touch with your family members and ensure they know how to reach you in the event of an emergency.
- Register in our Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP).
Foreign governments have taken action to guard against terrorist attacks, and some have made official declarations regarding heightened threat conditions. Authorities continue to conduct raids and disrupt terror plots. We continue to work closely with our allies on the threat from international terrorism. Information is routinely shared between the United States and our key partners in order to disrupt terrorist plotting, identify and take action against potential operatives, and strengthen our defenses against potential threats.

Tourism industry fears huge losses from Egypt crashI'll start worrying when the safer areas in the Middle East get attacked...
Extremists have targeted large sporting events, theatres, open markets, and aviation services....
Thank you Barry and Hillary and Harry and Nancy and all the Progressive-Neocon psychotics.
We know you & your Oligarch friends will be protected and that gives us comfort.
Obey the Feds and be good little sheep...
Watchout
Israel's Kamikaze Micro-Drones Will Change Modern WarfareGreat knowing you guys. It definitely happens in the next 3 months. If so, you know where to go. 1600 Penn. See you there.
No worries. Russia has the antidote with their new EW technology.
When things start kicking off in the GCC countries (Saudi, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, and Oman) then its time to worry.
IOW - Your next internet comment might be your last.
So...did the State Dept. just yell fire in a crowded theater?
A friend just got back from 10 day Egypt tour. He said it was great. No crowds and he got into the pyramids and other places that are usually not available. And.... as he was leaving, loads of Chinese were arriving.
Just goes to show - time to go is when mama govt says no.

Don't travel outside the USSA where you'll spend money needed in the HomeyLand.

Dear Americans, tell everyone you are Canadian.
When I was in High School and unie the kids would sew Canada flags on their backpacks on their holidays, they were all over the place at airports. This would be 80s and 90s, I dunno if they still do that, but a lot of people were really proud of that, one of the things that made us great eh.
I have done that for about 15 years when I leave the country.
I suppose if some sort of massacre against civilians occurs anywhere in the world, the State Department can say that they warned everybody. Cast a big enough net and one is sure to catch a fish.
They are scanning youtube for videos now
I heard those things are very dangerous and can incite crowds to gang rape and kill ambassadors of sovereign nations.
Maybe the State Dept missed Ann Barnhardt's Koran burning on Y/T.
If you like your fucking alerts you can keep your fucking alerts.
We alerted some folks...
You didn't alert that.
Be alert - the country needs all the lerts it can get
I'm s-so s-scared ...

THANKS TO YOU SUBVERSIVE MOTHERFUCKERS stirring up the New World Order pot.
Ginger Moondust is the fucking top tinfoil rainbow skittle shitting unicorn lib tard terror color that will still color coordinate with your stoopidfone Aye-watch, FidgetBit, and flaming Obamagay wardrobe if worn as a trendy "Bring The Troops home " campaign ribbon to prove your Faith In The Cause.
Fuck me running, the future sucks compared to what I expected.
No George Jetson hovercar, no fucking Star Wars light saber, no ray guns for home defense, no replicant hookers, not one fucking good thing at all whatsoever.
Just hemp clothing, pastels, Face suck, phoneheads, and retarded politics, still blowing people up for nothing.
Who the fuck wrote this movie anyway ?
Herbert Marcuse · Theodor Adorno
Max Horkheimer · Walter Benjamin
Erich Fromm · Friedrich Pollock
Leo Löwenthal · Jürgen Habermas
Alfred Schmidt · Axel Honneth Siegfried Kracauer
For starters.
I was really depressed that there weren't going to be any "Replicant Hookers" in my timeline.
The Japs have really let us down.
Bravo.
Actual condition status is "Code Mauve".
Being colorblind, I demand a safe space from your polychromatic microaggression.
This is yellow level threat, known as Threat Level Blithering Bimbo, depicted by icon of picture Marie Harf.
Higher by next level is orange, known as Threat Level Stumbling Slattern, depicted by icon of picture Jen Psaki.
Higher next level red known as Screeching Shrew and depicted by icon of picture Samantha Power.
Higher beyond is actual attack ongoing, FearCon Level Traitorous Termagant, depicted by icon of cookie with image Aunt Nuland.
Highest is FearCon Level Hateful Harpy, depicted by icon of picture Grandma Dracula (the Clinton woman). Is theoretical level only as it corresponds to everyone already now dead.
What, no concomitant refugee/immigrant warning from the region of known ISIS strongholds?
That nails it. I'm sleeping in tomorrow. Too dangerous to go to work!
I just got back from the store and forgot to buy extra sporks for self protection, as I shelter in my "Safe Place". lol
Maybe the grammar school down the street has a few extra pairs of Donald Duck safety scissors I can borrow.
could you pick me up some paste while you are at it?
That was funny.
Hungry?
I could do some Elmer's Glue.
Good thing we got rid of Saddam and are weakening Assad! So much safer in the world without strong secular leaders.
Was this alert issued from a secure server, or was it from one of those servers in somebody's closet?
They hate us for... then again who is they?
Hmmmm... this may be a bad year to attend the X-mas tree lighting at Rockefeller Plaza.
You get the itch in the rectal area from trying fear to spread?
Attains a special glory in the ass adventure?
Conchita, why you so aggressive?
Damn white Christians. Probably tea party too.
lmao!...undoubtedly...how much ya wanna bet he wouldn't let UKIP or a Tea Partier in if they were a refugee.
"Thats just not who we are!" ;-)
Sooo..., no safe space for our college tweens?
Like wow man!
Apparently the JV Team has crossed some sort of Redline ;-)
Danger Will Robinson! Danger Will Robinson!
Widows and orphans...who mostly look like 23 year old maile draftees.
You have to love it--the travel alert mysteriously expires on February 24. Not the 23rd or the 25th, but the 24th. Geeeezz.
Originally, it was February 31st but they moved it back a week.

Perfect...
better than your false sources
Caitlyn better not wear those fake tits to the airport.
I suppose Yellen will now need to hold rates at zero to counter the slow down in the economy due to people staying home and not spending.
Also, whilst we're at it, let's fire up that military machine. Because nothing solves a recession like a war. How nice.
Current information suggests that ISIL (aka Da’esh), al-Qa’ida, Boko Haram, and other terrorist groups continue to plan terrorist attacks in multiple regions. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics, using conventional and non-conventional weapons and targeting both official and private interests. This Travel Alert expires on February 24, 2016.
So multiple terrorist groups are planning multiple attacks in multiple regions against multiple interests using multiple tactics. But everything will be fine after Feb 24, 2016, at 12:26pm EST.
Thanks, .gov. That's really helpful! But next time, could you try warning us before the attack?
"So multiple terrorist groups are planning multiple attacks in multiple regions against multiple interests using multiple tactics. But everything will be fine after Feb 24, 2016, at 12:26pm EST."
snigger
They're so frigging dumb.
I'll take fnords for $50, Alex.
This is one more way to keep everyone imprisoned in America... along with passport confiscation.
The State Department, which is controlled by Israeli firsters, should then stop creating terror ... so they can stop the alert.
This must not be allowed to affect the terribly important global warming love fest in Paris at the end of the month. If it does, ISIS will have destroyed the world.
Hopefully the brave warriors against carbon dioxide will be prepared to put their lives at risk to save the rest of us.

Give Pakistan the "ATOMIC BOMB"!
are the brown shirts already marching on the streets? wake me up on cristalnacht
BULLISH!!!!
"Must live in fear!" Fuck You Kerry. You little faggot! This is proof-positive that the War on Terror is a hoax. For if it was real, we would be pounding the shit out of them in the ME while not Infringing on our freedoms here at home... So obvious, a caveman can see it. Baby Bush said "we must fight them over there so we don't have to over here" / What a lying sack of shit...
"Mission Contained"
Ur broke gubmint needs u 2 spend $ @home because Black Friday is already lookin shaky and we don't need more funds leaking out. This warning was only issued to 'muricans? Makes sense doesn't it?
Where would you like your free 'Spiderman Towel' sent?
Bring-em on! This will be excellent training for the many state militia groups (that would be you and me friends) in US to do a little tactical training. It is their historical function to defend their country as citizen warriors when needed. Since the Federal government is unable to fulfill that role.
I was booked on MH370 eleven days before it went awol and despite the realization that most of this shit is scare tactics it took me seven weeks to get back on a plane. I'm missing the point of these announcements. If I need to fly then what the fuck am I supposed to do if someone has planted a bomb in the hold. Avoid crowds? Oh, like trains, buses, shopping centers, movie theaters and cruise ships? The world doesn't operate without crowds. Whether it is to do with CYA tactics or some other rationale it's not a good way to combat terrorism and I'm guessing a lot of people cancel their travel plans and further fuck the economy.

WHY that date? Do US govt knows, the "threat" WILL BE FINISHED after just 3 months??
Hmm - I'm an expat and subscribe to STEP (smart traveler enrollment program) - not a peep since Hurricane Patricia in October.
I think what they ment to say is....
The Shit is flying, and the fan is already Turned on.
but what does Dragon Know
they want you to stay in usa to be roasted in fema camps
what does the state dept. consider non-conventional terrorist weapons,to be used on us sites, gases, some infectious viral release, limited nuclear?
if you live on the southern border who do you call, the same people who watched 30-40 million walk across the border the last 10 yrs.?
I knew it was coming "visitors" to the host country.
but for gods sake make sure you get to work, and pay your taxes, so everyone will be protected and can have their freedom.
Americas pc'ism's are going to cause more deaths than 911 by 100 fold.
Little Freudian slip there? Crowed places, see a raven or crow you better run. The crow has always symbolized the messenger of death.
I can't recall any terrorist events actually occured during the highest terrorist level. IMO, this period is the safest time to travel. These alert level is more like telling the terrorists not to attack now.
If they say to avoid USA, they are right.
