FBI Warns That Iran Plots an "Army of Drones" Launched from a Stealth Vessel Against the West Coast

I suppose it's possible that Iran sneaked a drone-carrier out of the Persian Gulf in the weeks before the war, plotting a spoilsport retaliation attack. And I guess it would have taken that ship a couple of months to get into position.

Anyway, let's hope not.

Not sure why they'd attack anti-America California, but then they did attack their own allies in Qatar.

The FBI issued an urgent warning to cops across California of a potential Iranian drone strike on the Golden State.

Tehran was looking at deploying unmanned aircraft on the region as the country reels after the US wiped out its Supreme Leader last month, the alert said.

The Bureau said in early February agents had intelligence that drones could be sent from an unidentified vessel off the American coastline.

California has the highest concentration of Iranian dissidents in the US -- up to 500,000 -- but it is not clear if that was why the state could be targeted.

The FBI alert said: "We recently acquired information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using unmanned aerial vehicles from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United State Homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event that the US conducted strikes against Iran."

It added: "We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack."

It is very plausible that the psychopathic murderers of the old regime would want to kill the Iranians who fled it, just out of spite and a sense of anger at the slaves who got away.

Indeed, Tehran's chief of police is warning people that he will murder them just for singing songs.

National police chief Ahmad-Reza Radan says that demonstrating against the regime now makes protesters enemies of the state. "If anyone comes forward in line with the wishes of the enemy, we will no longer see them as merely a protester; we will see them as an enemy," Radan said in remarks broadcast late Tuesday by state broadcaster IRIB.

"And we will do to them what we do to an enemy. We will deal with them in the same way we deal with enemies," he added.

The warning was explicit and obscene. "All our forces are also ready, with their fingers on the trigger, prepared to defend their revolution," said Radan.

...

Gangs of Basij enforcers, often heavily armed, roam the streets, threatening civilians and forcing them indoors. Anyone who looks like they might be thinking of protesting is threatened or beaten or worse. There are checkpoints across every city. Known protesters are scrutinized even as they move through the streets to get basic necessities.

Tousi reported two hopeful claims:

1, with the money now run out, and belief that the regime is effectively dead, a lot of lower level IRGC and Basij thug enforcers are just abandoning their posts and melting away.

2, the IRGC and the Satanic Mullahs are supposedly in some kind of dispute. Not a hot war, but a contest for authority. When the Gulf States announced they would take military action in retribution for Iran's unprovoked strikes on them, the mullahs put out a statement that they did not mean to hit the Gulf States, and would refrain from doing so in the future. But the IRGC contradicted them and said oh yes we meant to hit you and we'll keep on doing it, and forced the clerics of Satan to walk back their apology.

I'm still very confused about how we actually topple the regime with no ground forces, but maybe the various ethnic enclaves will rise up and at least declare their own areas to be autonomous.

There are reports we used the "Mother of All Bombs" for the first time, to blow up underground missile storage and production facilities, but I think this is all unconfirmed.
