My deepest fear now is a false flag attack on the West Coast

perhaps as we get closer to our the mid-term elections.

FBI puts West Coast on alert over potential Iranian drone attack on US soil:

Story by Joe Lombardi

According to ABC News, the bureau issued an alert to state and local law enforcement earlier this year, advising increased vigilance over potential unmanned aerial vehicle attacks on undisclosed targets.

"We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran," the FBI alert said, according to ABC.

Methinks that they were either

• clued in or lured in, or
• suspicious of the next step in the Epstein Distraction Action.

Of course like many terrorists, you can expect a return to the scene of a crime, such as the WTC garage bombing precursor, or the Quixotic Iran nuke lab bombing.

At this point, I'm glad not to be a drone owner.
