'Intentional, willful and malicious': 40K without power after substation attacks in Moore County

[Ford_Prefect]

17. This kind of assault has been discussed on alt/right forums and patri-idiot platforms in planning

for the anticipated "race war". The common thread was that such events would trigger it.

There were discussions in detail about how to achieve greatest effect. Another potential target was oil and gas distribution locations. A third commonly mentioned target was communication hubs like the one attacked in Nashville on Christmas day 2020. The overall thinking was that many of these attacks would happen at the same time throwing ordinary life into chaos and releasing social tensions leading to the "race war".

DHS, FBI and other law enforcement organizations have been on alert for this kind of domestic terror event for a number of years. Public utilities, public health agencies, along with private industry have reaction plans on file and in their training programs to deal with possible scenarios the same as they do for hurricanes.

IMO the agent provocateur is most likely reacting to the sentencing of the Oath Keepers, or TLG's weekend rave fest, the likely GOP loss in GA, or all of them. It is the kind of outrage TLG continues to attempt to trigger and the same animosity which drove the Jan. 6 assault on Congress. American ISIS lives for this apocalypse which they believe will transform America and expect to be the initiating agents as well as the primary militia engaging the forces of Antifa, Lib-Dems, the Deep State and other imaginary evils.
