Detailed Attack Scenario

In response to increased U.S. military presence in Central and West Africa, EZ and several of its African-based affiliated and inspired groups have developed a plan to retaliate against the United States.

The scale of the attacks is planned to surpass that of 9-11. EZ will provide mission support that will include: limited financial capital for weaponry, support networks in place in the West, access to front companies, and recruitment of skilled weapons technicians.
