Yeah, not so much. Farmington, NM has a small national guard armory, but nothing really of value.

I wonder if these towns were chosen for having high Muslim populations, or if they are just cities where air force personnel who work on drone campaigns happen to live. If it's the former, it was done with hopes that SOMEONE would hear the message and do it. If it's the latter, it's much more specific targets which means they're counting on a rather sophisticated coordination of resources.

Probably a mix between the two. Sending out a large blanket request in the hopes of attracting the attention of a psychotic lone wolf or two.

The "kill list" included information about particular service members ISIS wants killed. The cities are where they live or at least where ISIS says they live and other locations related to them.

Oh no, I caught that from the article too, I'm just speculating.

It seems based on the locations of specific service members. I think it's primarily fear-mongering but you're right that one aspect is likely to put it out there and see what happens.

Those cities are so random. There is no method to picking. They probably threw darts.

I saw virginia beach and norfolk. There are bases and a large military presence all around there. Also, ports.

When I saw Barkhamsted, CT on the list I knew that they had no idea what they were doing.

Anacortes, WA? That place is full of a rich and old people.

Saint Augustine, FL? Yuppies, and tourists.

At first I just thought that some ISIS guy threw a dart at a map of the US and wrote down whatever city he hit. But now that I think about it more, wouldn't it be more effective to hit small-town America? Cause chaos and fear in the smaller cities that think they're immune to terrorist attacks?

I was half expecting it to be the most populated cities and they were just doing some PR campaign of terror. But to hit small town America, randomly, for no reason would drive the country into a panic.

Or Detroit.

EDIT: I see Dearborn Heights is on there. Guess that's as close as they want to get.
