LA Schools Update - Terror threat or Hoax

Telegraph - Live Blog: Reports in its 6.27pm post the following, " Police chief: we believe threat came from "closer to home"..Chief Beck says that while the threat was routed through an IP address in Germany, authorities believe it came from "a lot closer to home". "

Lets Get Real:

Given the present information and the lack of actual terrorist material found this blog would take the risk and say this threat to LA schools was a hoax, of course if terrorist material is found this blog would revoke that estimation, but thus far there seems little risk to say that the terror threat against LA Schools was a hoax, the question is WHO and WHY, it could be a fan of Homeland, or it could be the terrorists checking out to see how the State would react. They day we allow terrorists to win a new cycle, is a bad day, thus the West as stated in this blog has to take down Daesh, they are a threat to the Western secular values of the West. 

When Art becomes Real - LA Schools Update

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 6.05pm post the following, " In dismissing a similar threat made to New York City schools, officials said the threat was sent by someone who “may have been a Homeland fan”.   NYPD commissioner Bill Bratton called the threat a hoax and said that it seemed like it was inspired by a fan of the Showtime series. Bratton said that the threat “mirrors recent episodes” of the Emmy award-winning program.  New York City Schools Chancellor Carmen Farina said in a statement that “there is no reason for alarm”. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus if it turns out to have been a major hoax the TV series Homeland will get it the neck, at least President Obama is fan, so White House get out there and support this US series, of course there is always an outside chance that it is a REAL THREAT, thus the California authorities had no choice but to close down the LA Schools.   One would hope the German authorities will crack down hard should it have been sent by a German resident.   This incident is a warning to the White House, people are afraid, thus the Obama White House has to do something about Daesh, it can not be left to the successor of Obama to deal with, history does not work like that, there is a year and bit left of the Obama Presidency, time is short and the Oval has to act and be seen to act. 

A Terror Threat hits LA Schools, REAL OR HOAX?

BBC News: Reports " Los Angeles schools have been closed as an unspecified threat emailed to the school district is being investigated...New York City officials said they received the same threat that closed LA schools but concluded it was a hoax. "

Lets Get Real:

After the recent terror attack in California it can be understood that local authorities took the drastic step to close all the Schools in Los Angeles, better to be safe than sorry, but then local authorities in New York thought it was a hoax, after 9/11 one suspects that any threat is considered at length before its dismissed.    The aim of terrorists is to cause fear, either this was  real threat that has been closed down or it was hoax, if it was a hoax one hopes the FBI will be all over it, on the 24/7 news channels it is reported that the email came from Germany, lets hope the Germans crack down either way.  A day that terrorists cause fear and panic is a day they win, they are having to much good days, the West, this includes the US, UK and France have to take down Daesh, the Oval Office does not have a year to hand over the issue to his successor, the Obama Oval will have to tackle it, does not matter if he does not want too, reality has a way of pricking a self deluded bubble around the White House.
