Can Terrorist Attacks Be Predicted?

Can terrorist attacks and/or targets be predicted? No, they cannot. Any government that tells you they can do this is lying. Unless they pick up intel about one about to happen, they can’t tell you doodley-squat. These are the same governments, after all, that told us in the 1970s they’d probably be able to predict earthquakes by the year 2000. Yes, well, earthquakes would be easier to predict. Terrorist attacks cannot be predicted. How and why?

Because, number one, not even the entire non-state apparatus knows who and where their cells are! In a sense, they’re very similar to American government. Did the CIA and FBI share intel prior to 9/11? No, they did not. Does the federal government know what every local government from Barstow to Boston is doing? No. If California really did secede, it’d probably take the federal government two days to learn of it. And then from the news.

Bottom line: These attacks will continue and cannot be predicted. Nor can they be stopped using the current government methods.
