As the U.S. strikes on Iran continue, counterterrorism analyst Richard Suttles reached out with renewed concerns about potential terrorism threats and how they could impact the United States.
In this conversation, we discuss how global conflicts can influence terrorist activity, why experts often expect smaller “lone wolf” attacks rather than large-scale events, and why places like churches and schools are sometimes considered vulnerable targets. We also talk about practical steps communities and families can take to stay aware and prepared without living in fear.
Richard has spent more than 30 years studying terrorism and counterterrorism strategy, offering insight into how these threats develop and how ordinary people can think wisely about safety and preparedness.
Topics include:
• How the Iran strike could affect terrorism risks
• Why smaller attacks may be more likely than major ones
• Security considerations for churches
• Practical preparedness for families and communities
