FBI Hunting Likely Terror Cell That Planted Bombs Around New Orleans
Law enforcement officials in Louisiana are hunting down what is likely an Islamic terror cell that was behind the terrorist attack in New Orleans during the early morning hours on Wednesday.
The news comes after the FBI confirmed in a statement that the suspect who allegedly murdered at least 10 people in a vehicle and shooting attack was 42-year-old Shamsud-Din Jabbar.
Jabbar had an ISIS flag with him during the terrorist attack, the FBI said.
Federal agents were at the home of Jabbar’s ex-wife on Wednesday afternoon. Her new husband told The New York Times that Jabbar was in the process of converting to Islam and had started “being all crazy” recently.
The Associated Press reported that, according to a Louisiana State Police intelligence bulletin the publication obtained, “surveillance footage captured three men and a woman placing one of multiple improvised explosive devices” around the French Quarter.
The report added that guns and bombs were found inside Jabbar’s vehicle, which were concealed within coolers and were wired for remote detonation. The detonator was discovered inside the vehicle.
The report comes after the FBI said during a press conference that officials “do not believe” that Jabbar acted alone.
“We do not believe that Jabbar was solely responsible,” said FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Alethea Duncan. “We are aggressively running down every lead, including those of his known associates. That’s why we need the public’s help.”
Duncan said later during the press conference that she did not want to name a specific number of suspects that the FBI was looking at because she did not want to limit the possibility that there were more unknown suspects.

National security writer Tom Rogan noted on X that, according to publicly available flight tracker data, the “FBI Hostage Rescue Team callsign aircraft seems headed to New Orleans.”
“The quick reaction team is always on four hour readiness to move,” Rogan wrote. “Considering when attack took place, looks like they are moving en masse with all the gear. Going cell hunting…”

Let’s see. The FBI, that has been caught in dozens of staged events such as this, is investigating to tell us the “facts”. We are seeing the same in Vegas. On the heels of this immediate outcries from the usual Zionist arm chair warriors for further US involvement in Middle Eastern wars to “punish” those nasty ragheads. How convenient, they even had an ISIS flag to be sure we knew who to go after. These were both FBI/Mossad staged joint events. Expect to see something daily. In the meantime WNC is still fighting FEMA for survival.
An interesting takeaway from this is that for anything even remotely organized, they have to call in HRT. I thought all the tonka trucks and battle rattle made the local, state, and even Fed LE invincible? At least, that’s what they would have you believe. We’re talking what, a four man cell? For the partisan, what does this tell you? They do NOT have the manpower to sustain COIN in this country for any length of time. The black uniforms and militarization only work on people whos TTPs begin and end with bunker down and DIP. As defense always ends up being. Against a mobile enemy they are beyond fucked.
Also, from the security forces perspective, what was exploited from Jabbars cell phone and how did that lead to compromise of the other cell members? Another one of those lessons that the team here keeps screaming at all of you about, yet almost all of ya ignore it because it’s not convienent! After all, using wifi only for sensitive communications isn’t cool. It’s not easy. It certainly doesn’t bring the instant gratification of a notification from Signal or X with some cool meme, does it?
