The Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is a terrorist organization based in the country of Somalia, in the continent of Africa. It has a newly emergent terrorist group that is gathering momentum. It has in recent times been emboldened by the support, both moral and logistical, of the various terrorist groups of the world. The Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath has already carried out small scale terrorist attacks in Somalia, and has several villages under its control. There were rumours afloat that they have been on a lookout for the most opportune moment to target the United Arab Emirates and overthrow the Emir of the country. The attack is supposed to be its first venture out in the international world and create a recognition for itself in order to make a drive towards its goal of setting up a foothold in the affairs of the world. The United Arab Emirates have been allegedly regarded by the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath as a heretic country and the close ties of the country with the United States of America has earned the country wealth by evil means which is way more than all the other countries in the entire Gulf Region. The Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is thus embarking upon a venture to make the United Arab Emirates its target and get hold of the vast resources of wealth the country has in order to supplement its future programmes. In the subsequent sections a detailed account of the action plan of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath, their objectives shall be provided. Alongside that the strategies of countering the suspected, imminent terrorist attack shall also be provided.
The reason behind the attack that Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is planning has already been elaborated upon in the previous section which provides the background information. The ultimate end of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is to set up a caliphate with its seat at the United Arab Emirates. Through which, they desire to bring the world under the ideological and religious stronghold which emanates from a perverted interpretation of the teachings of Islam as enshrined in the holy book of Quran. Not only do they want to subdue people following other religious faiths, but also other Islamic denominations that shall not be in tandem with their line of thought.
For the purpose of carrying out their motives of wreaking havoc in the United Arab Emirates, the terrorist group Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath has planned out an elaborate enlistment of ways which they shall be striving to fulfill sporadically in the country. Their method is expected to be quite violent, and relentless which shall not enable the opponent party any chance to gather up on the resources and moral support to counter their attack by any means. The onslaught shall be targeting the most vulnerable and the weak ones in order to acquire a position which shall enable them to bargain with the government and the security forces. The attack has been very tactfully planned out which shall take the children, women and the civilians as hostages in order to paralyze the pro activeness and the aggressiveness of the armed and security forces of the country from taking up any counter measures. They also have in their agenda to lay a siege on the government offices and destroy the human resources and the reserve of arms and logistical support the army of the country has at its behest. Accomplishing that shall be enabling them to weaken the civilian government and making situations easier for themselves to overthrow it. Thus the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath shall be embarking upon the very generic strategy used by most terrorist organizations of blackmailing the security forces by causing death and destruction to loom over the civilians in order to fulfill their goal.
In the process they shall also be facing the need to export technical support from other terrorist organizations that have their networks spread internationally. That is necessary since their attack on the United Arab Emirates is supposed to be their maiden venture into waging attacks on a grand scale internationally, after already having become infamous locally in Somalia for their small scale terrorist attacks in the country and the villages that they have brought under their control. Though they are quite potent to jeopardize the peace and prosperity of a country, the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is yet to achieve the expertise and confidence of the most recognized terrorist organizations of the world.
This went as far as the military strategy of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is concerned. They also have planned out upon ideological manipulation to garner more support in their favour. Their prime tool in this regard is using religion to win over the masses and increase more man power and sympathizers who shall be supplement their jihad. Through extending social service and other mercenary and materialistic benefits they shall be winning over the people to align with them. When all peaceful methods of manipulation shall fail to bring about any worthwhile result, they shall be resorting to force and threat to increase the strength of people to fight on their behalf. This goes as far as the ways they have planned out is concerned.
The Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath have one of the most sophisticated means to wage the war. They have a team of talented people from the fields of medical science, mechanical engineering, information technology and army to provide them with the necessary leadership, man power and the logistical help to carry out the war. War equipments in forms of Inter Continental Ballistic Missiles, chemical weapons, automated rifles and aircrafts are owned by them. The financial aspect is solved by wealthy businessmen and the other internationally recognized terrorist organizations, who make donations to them on a regular basis based in different parts of the world, by being attracted by their propaganda messages spread through online means. Apart from that, the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath also indulges in slave trade, ransom demands by kidnapping important persons, sending mercenary soldiers to different parts of the world to wage terrorist attacks on behalf of other terrorist organizations and looting in order to earn the financial means.
This section shall be providing an account of the specific forms of threats that the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is likely to pose. The threats can be subdivided under two headships; the major threats that aims to strike terror in the minds of the general public and cause damage; and the critical threats that shall be aimed at paralyzing the immediate response of the security forces.
Three major threats have been identified as of now. Schools children from private and international schools from the major cities of United Arab Emirates has been planned to be taken as hostages. Officials at the government offices and embassies are at high risk of deadly attacks or kidnapping. The footages of the onslaught on them shall be captured and posted on social media platforms such as facebook, youtube, twitter for instilling a sense of fear and tension in the world at large to disseminate the idea that they are invincible and shall win over the world. To disrupt communication and hamper rescue operations, the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath shall be taking over the electricity supply points and power houses, and also detaching the electric cables to cut off the connections.
Two critical threats that are expected wreak havoc has been identified as of now. The aim of it is to attack civilians in order to make them the scapegoat. That shall cause the armed forces to react and fall into the temptation of going on a direct assault with the forces of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath. Their first target shall be to embark upon a mass shooting of the revelers frolicking and enjoying the festive mood of Christmas at the beaches of the United Arab Emirates. The beaches of Dubai are the most vulnerable as the maximum percentage of the tourist inflow flocks to that particular emirate given the concentration of the facilities and attractions the destination has to offer. The Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is also planning out on a suicide bombing attack in the Global Village on the 2nd of December to instill a sense of panic in the minds of the general public and of the security officials.
This is just the tentative information that has been derived so far about the course of action the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath is planning to undertake. They can also change their course of action for which preparedness is expected.
Since actions are supposed to followed up by effective public outreach of the message and information, the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath has decided upon full-fledged propaganda which shall further their cause. The basis of their propaganda is three fold. The messages shall primarily be seeking to spread terror through the broadcasting of fake and fabricated videos created by videography expertise mechanism. It shall be featuring women and children being slaughtered at Yemen by the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath. Through it the motive is to spread rumours about the lack of safety that is prevailing in the environment. The aim of any terrorist organization is to spread a fear psychosis before actually moving forward with their course of action, as that makes their destructive actions to be executed with relative ease.
Hence they have chosen the radio stations primarily to spread their agenda and their motives. Social media sites like facebook, twitter and youtube shall also be spreading their messages through texts and through videos. This course of action is meant for their online propaganda in the digital world. Summoning from the mosque and public meetings with people shall also be conducted face to face with people to add that personal touch. The entire course of events that shall take place in personal contact with the people shall be disseminated online as well. This provides an overview of their propaganda.
Having provided a detailed account of the aims, objectives and the course of action of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath, the final discussion shall focus on the counter terrorism plan that the Government and the armed forces of the United Arab Emirates ought to take.
First of all the entry and exit from the major transit points of the country, airports, sea-ports, international roads must be monitored and the presence of the military and police force must be beefed up heavily (Kaplan, 2017).
Interrogation must be conducted on persons whose conduct shall occur to be suspicious and can pose a threat to the security of the country (Kaplan, 2017).
Close circuit televisions must be installed at all places possible to monitor the movements of the people and must be minutely monitored (Kaplan, 2017).
Intelligence service must be vigilante to intercept all the movements of aircrafts and water vessels into the country and in vicinity to the international marine, aerial and territorial border of the country (Argomaniz, Bures & Kaunert, 2015).
A strict checking of inflow and outflow of goods and people must be conducted. It is necessary to prevent the cross border smuggling of arms. People having suspicious travel history on their passports must be taken into custody immediately (Argomaniz, Bures & Kaunert, 2015).
Somalia is infamous for the pirates, hence the waterways must be guarded with an increased amount of security. They can easily attack the beaches where the tourist destinations are concentrated (Argomaniz, Bures & Kaunert, 2015).
The army must be immediately prepared for war. The intelligences services should assist them in all ways possible. The aim should not only be to safeguard the country from the attacks of the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath, but also to jeopardize their war preparations by blocking their websites, freezing their bank accounts, raising international outcry to call upon the powerful nations to wage a war against the Revolutionary Front of God’s Wrath (Kaplan, 2017).
