In recent weeks, more than 1500 fighters joined the affiliates that target Rwanda, bringing the total to an estimated 2500 soldiers for Phase I of the GSI doctrine; establishing fear and presence by random killings

CRISIS TIPPING POINT SitRep - April 2020

Each wave of both pandemics, as well as a financial crisis, is more destructive. Social distancing and lockdown measures effectively halted production and services; counter pandemic measures merge with the results of the financial crash. The financial impact is life-changing, economically devastation, and creating mass dependency on the state.
Extremist organizations expect government continuity to crumble and stage coup D'états when government services in economically weak areas cease to exist.

In March 2018 financiers of arms for Al Qaeda affiliates, acquired an American made jet airplane.

Recently intercepted communications indicate that Al Qaeda (affiliates and offshoots) is widening its existing (long term) scope of attacks into the tropics

Business scan survey's uncovered state sponsored Iranian business networks where fraud shifted from a criminal inspired activity into an ideology driven (terror) funding mechanism, benefiting the the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. Iranian sales companies turned out to be specialized in Advance Fee Fraud “non-delivery scams” and the trading/holding companies in Dubai were nothing less than investment fraud benefiting the IRGC.

Investigations uncovered that for at least two years, passwords, logins to remote control and personal accounts of high ranking bank staff are being exploited, seeking patiently for confidential banking communications and access, in order to destroy the capabilities and credibility of the institutions with the public as well as shareholders.

Monitoring the communications and travel patterns revealed the existence of small groups of Iranian fighters in the West, possible an imminent threat.

The radical change of U.S. foreign policy, to ‘eradicate’ ‘radical Islamic terrorism’ ‘from the face of the Earth’ by aggressively moving on the global jihadi conspiracy, persuades extremists to attack and widen their scope.

No allies left - Squeezed by sanctions - Wait for uprisings to devour and divide Iran - Terrorism proxies - Decades of diplomacy that left ample time for Iran to prepare for an attack with "Microwaves From The Sky" at "The West" - No choice left ... attack - Iran Threat Scenarios

International transport hubs provide a perfect matrix to synchronize and fuse criminal inspired activity with ideology driven terror mechanisms.

A growing number of individuals brought to our attention that they do not own companies, while documents obtained from the massive data leak from Panamanian law firm, Mossack Fonseca, allegedly show, they incorporated a company in known tax-havens e.g. the British Virgin Islands, Seychelles etc.. Even though they never visited any of the (representative) offices of Mossack Fonseca, nor did they authorize third parties to represent them.

Any obstacle that the Al Qaida network faces in its effort to achieve its mission statement, the Al Qaida terror network identifies as a threat - hurt the western financial and espionage position in Africa through the killing of spies, hidden in NGO's, businesses and the corps diplomatique"

Impersonating authorized bank officers of treasury departments, to send payment orders to (National Reserve) correspondent banks, is a specialist wire fraud problem

A niche market for organised crime, the sending of correspondent payment instructions to Treasury departments of Federal Reserve and Central Banks, evolved into a slick corporate business ID theft.

Intercepted communications revealed that another particular terror threat was nurtured to maturity by al Qaeda operatives and monitored travel patterns indicate that threat became topical.

South Africa that gradually moved towards a major crisis arrived at the brink of civil war. As current clear and present danger signals show that a resurgence of violence will pop up over night.

Intelligence and Security Challenges | Global economic collapse | Al Qaeda Prime Targets, ISIS Comes to You | Muslim vs. non-Muslim | Presence and Fear the New Normal | Active spy networks the prelude to (civil) war | Iran, results of diplomacy offset against lower oil prices | Electronic footprints from niche to core business |

We are aware of terrorist (and criminals) among the refugee streams and of hundreds we do know in which groups they hide, their ID and intentions. But as planned and expected there are just too many unidentified, posing as refugees and current identification efforts are effectively frustrated by defensive group behavior.

Ongoing Intelligence, HUMINT and Anti-Money-laundering (AML) operations within the core of Al Qaeda network have revealed a group of mainly Egyptian nationals that aims to strike at the heart of Egypt and the Russian Egyptian alliance.

Acquiring electronic footprints, to enable analysis and tagging of targets for remote controlled and high tech weapons, has become a main stream intelligence requirement.

The USA will relapse into the usual political dilly-dally and "seem" unwilling to support aggressive steps - Never hear of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi the Caliph of the Islamic State again - ISIS will come to you - Terror threat scenario, gun, large and a small knife - Israeli defence readiness is strategically limited - ISIS established presence and fear - Loss of purpose - ISIS attacks Israel - Droning them softly - ISIS next big purpose - Channeling hatred directly to your doorstep via Hamas and the Fatah movement.

NEW DELHI: Indians were defrauded of $870 million last year by e-mail scams, or so-called Nigerian “419 scams,” says a global report on the financial crime. Such fraud is also a source of revenue for terror groups. The Nigerian Al-Qaeda affiliate, Boko Haram, is known to have tapped the 419 system for funds. “We stumbled upon information concerning money-laundering links with extremists in Kashmir and Bangladesh,”

A new report shows that Nigerian money scams are more profitable than ever. Why are people still falling for those emails telling them they won a lottery they never entered?

Some people believe that wherever they are and whatever they do, they are being watched by their enemies. They believe everyone is plotting against them and that nowhere is safe. They trust no-one. These are symptoms of a serious mental illness known as Paranoia.

Unless, of course, it is True

Nigeria Says It Wants To Clean Up Its Bad Image - It is obvious that many of the 170 million Nigerians are not aware that some of their fellow countrymen have earned them the dubious honour of becoming the worlds number one globalizer for Fraud.

Case study to train intel and financial analysts of what to look for in order to provide early warning for "spectacular terror attacks". What do terrorist attacks at the Taj Mahal hotel Mumbai, the UN building in Abuja, the US embassy in Benghazi and the Westgate mall in Nairobi have in common - A Narrative of a genuine 3 months counter-terrorism operation

Although not often recognized, Africa is a key continent for The Al Qaida terror network. In the past we have observed several terror attacks in African countries as well as religion related and inspired conflicts.
