US Embassy raises alarm of 'possible terrorist attack' in Sandton

[roadcat]

I really can't imagine which terrorist country will attack SA except US.......

We attacking ourselves?

 

[CruelBreeze]

Who knows.

But I'd say a group like the EFF has more chance of attacking a gay pride march in SA and they wouldn't let something like that screw up phuza Saturday, would they?

Having said that, I could be wrong. But yeah, first world problems.

Why would the EFF attack a pride March?

Can you imagine TheChamp as a real-life Afrikaans, White Boeremag member. His MYBB persona is just a ruse to fool someone.

I'm jesting...

Met kam in die kous. I can ..

Maybe he considers the US a terrorist country... grammatically, it's hard to tell.

 

[wbot]

Quick! Someone tell the EFF that the Brackenfell oke has hidden that victory-beret somewhere in Sandton and that all EFF members are expected to find it!!

But they are the terrorists

Oh well they're stupid enough to attack themselves I guess.

bingo

I don't now the protocol, but is it usual for an embassy to give out security alerts about their host country?

Do they tell our ' intelligence lot' first?

I would have thought their side tells our side, then our side tells us.

It creates panic and uncertainty
It also doesnt tell us anything, just stay away from Sandton and during month end

 

[Fulcrum29]

Countdown to 'white supremacist' plot has started.

 

[Mekon]

Probably the Zuma daughter fat toads vile spawn again, instigating da peopul to rob the Hyde Park Makro or something on twitter, fighting for her dad's right as a leader to be corrupt..

They put out advisories for citizens & staff resident in the host country.

They do share info with the host country.
It's then up to the host country to advise (or not) their own citizens

Fark me.
How many times has the USA launched terror attacks of South Africa, Queenie?

Why would they attack Clicks or H&M? And yet here we are...

My point was that of any groups violently attacking things, I can't think of one far-right "white" one with an open anti-LGB agenda. But as I said earlier, I could be wrong.

 

[Easter Bunny]

meanwhile, in the police head office: "boss, i just received some intel from the american embassy via mybroadband..."

 

[buka001]

The UK also warning against travel to Sandton.

 

[neoprema]

So odd. Could it be related to e.g. an Israeli issue? Or ANC politics? Why does our own govt not warn US?????

Our own government wouldn’t know if a Suurok Class Vulcan cruiser landed in Sandton.

 

[RiaX]

SA law enforcement says the US is wrong and there is no evidence supporting a terrorist attack.

Oh yeah HAWKS vs CIA ....

 

[ToxicBunny]

Of course they would... If only cos they'd complain about the westerners holding back on all the nice technology.

Yup.. I'd very much believe the Cia before I'd trust the hawks to have a fscking clue.

 

[ToxicBunny]

Can't tell if trolling or just stupid.

Just stupid really.

Let's see what happens we assume the Americans are legendary in intelligence and warfare but that's our Hollywood indoctrinated minds talking.

When the chips are down and SAPS/HAWKS are after you they will get you if they want.
