Citizens Could Have Stopped NOLA Terror Attack: Recognizing the Signs of Terror
Christine Reagan | 1-14-2025
The New Orleans terror attack, where 15 lives were lost and over 30 were injured, was a nightmare, but the casualties intended were meant to kill thousands, with 47,000 tourists arriving for the Sugar Bowl.
The perpetrator, Jabbar, a 42-year-old U.S. Army veteran from Houston, placed at least two unattended coolers filled with improvised explosive devices (IEDs). If the public vigilance of the early post-9/11 years had persisted, these unattended coolers would have been reported immediately, possibly averting the tragedy by closing off the street, deploying vehicle barriers, and calling in the bomb squad. Thankfully, the timely exchange of gunfire between local police and Jabbar likely prevented the detonation of these bombs, which could have led to far more devastating casualties.
This incident echoes a timeless lesson: the critical need for public vigilance, a lesson Brigitte Gabriel and her organization, ACT for America, have taught for years through the "See Something, Say Something" program. Gabriel's foresight in promoting this initiative has shaped how everyday citizens can safeguard their communities. This ethos was instrumental long before the Department of Homeland Security took it nationwide, emphasizing the importance of citizens acting as the first line of defense against terrorism.
Brigitte’s New York Times Bestsellers, “Because They Hate” and “They Must Be Stopped,” continue to equip citizens and law enforcement with practical ways to respond to and combat radical Islamic terrorism in America and abroad.
During the Bush Era, lectures at the FBI, the U.S. Special Operations Command, and the Joint Forces Staff College, Gabriel has emphasized the need for public participation in national security.
Under Gabriel's leadership, ACT for America established one of the first platforms for citizens to report suspicious activities, setting a precedent for community-based security that later influenced Homeland Security's systems.

The legacy of Brigitte Gabriel's work with ACT for America has never been more crucial. It's not a slogan; it's recognizing and reporting the signs of terror without fear, safeguarding our streets, communities, and nation from further harm.
Now is not the time for complacency! The implications of such attacks are far-reaching, especially considering warnings from figures like Tom Homan, the incoming Border Czar, who estimates at least 600,000 potential terrorists within the U.S. borders. Moreover, Sarah Adams, a former CIA Targeter, has warned of an influx of over 1,000 highly trained terrorists last year, potentially plotting to kill thousands in synchronized attacks, possibly orchestrated by a combined Al-Qaeda-ISIS operation. Adams has warned us that the 10/7 terror attack in Israel was meant as revenge against the US for the US military operation “Enduring Freedom” in Afghanistan. CAIR, the unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation case, accused of funneling US donations to HAMAS in Gaza, was again embroiled in a recent lawsuit revealing foreign donors may be funneling funding for terrorism into the US through a former employee.
In the face of these threats, we must rekindle our vigilance, ensuring that the horrors of New Orleans are not repeated, understanding that in this battle against terror, every citizen's alertness could be the key to prevention.
See Something, Say Something: If you come across an unattended backpack, suitcase, cooler, or any containment unit in a public area, don't hesitate—report it to the local police immediately. If you witness someone purposefully leaving such an item behind, act swiftly: take a clear photo of the individual and approach them to confirm if the object is theirs. Should they deny ownership or continue walking away, call 911 without delay. Advise those around you to evacuate the area until law enforcement arrives.
Remember, prevention is the most effective deterrent against terror. If the item turns out to be harmless, there's no harm done; but if it's a threat, your actions could save lives and help in apprehending terrorists, potentially disrupting entire terror networks. Stay vigilant, stay safe.

In the last 400 years of the Roman empire they began to turn to the lgbtq lifestyle to the point that many Roman Legions were filled with nothing but homosexuals. The US military has been promoting lgbtq lifestyle among their ranks. The Romans had so much territory and conflicts, they brought in mass immigration from many tribes who were not loyal to the Romans. They filled many a Legion with these foreign immigrants who learned the tactics of the Legions, their strengths and weaknesses. They shared the information they learned with their tribes who eventually developed weapons and tactics that could exploit the weakness of the Legions and defeated the Roman empire. The US has brought in many an immigrant, both legal and illegal, some are loyal and want the US to be their home and be an American, but others are simply here to use the system, learn our strengths and weaknesses, share it with their nations of origin who will use it to bring down the US empire. The fact that this N Orleans terrorist was muslim proves that history is repeating itself. But its not just muslims, we have latino criminals and notorious gang members running loose in our nation. Back in Dec 2020, a Singapore pro freedom group published a list of 2000 CCP spies who had infiltrated the Western governments and Corporations to high places of authority. Any wonder the CCP has been able to steal a huge amount of our technology and secrets? No!!! When they gain access to the computer codes, the CCP can easily enter and steal. Muslims do the same. Of course they claim it was hackers, but I would imagine most of the theft comes from spies gaining access to the codes. When that list was published, there was a mass exodus of Chinese from Universities, governments, and Corporations fleeing back to China, some were caught at airports with stolen information and materials. Going back to Covid, 2 Chinese were working on Covid in a California lab, they took the information and went back to the Wuhan biowarfare lab 6 months prior to covid being released. And of course the CCP is working hand in hand with Iran on their belt road project. During WWII, Pres Truman held a meeting with all Allied leaders to tell them the US had a weapon of mass destruction prior to dropping it on Japan. Stalin simply told him, "I know". Truman was shocked, but it was later discovered that at least 50% or more of the people working on the bomb were Russian spies or selling information to Russian spies. So Stalin knew more about the atomic bomb than Truman did. In Dec 2024 a Saudi student in Virginia was arrested for planning an attack on the Israeli consulate in NYC. The 9/11 attackers were here on student visas to learn how to fly planes, but rarely attended classes. The California democrats work in lockstep with daddy XI to do the CCP destruction upon their state and our nation. We have many a legislator who is either a radical muslim terrorist supporter or a radical socialist/communist who works in lock step with the CCP and Iran. So just like the Roman empire, we are repeating the same mistakes that can bring down our nation. Our only hope is that this nation was built to serve God and if we return to Him we can turn this insanity around and rid our nation of many troublemakers who are hell bent on our destruction. Legal immigration is the only way to go, and they must be properly vetted before being allowed to enter. Act for America is doing a great job of trying to get this done as well as some other Judeo/Christian conservative groups working with Pres Trump to get our nation turned around, but there are many battles we must win. The fight against evil will continue until our Lord Jesus Christ returns, so we can not afford to be apathetic. May God bless all of His believers who are standing up in the fight against evil.
