New Orleans French Quarter Attack, FBI Six-Week Funding Cycle
The New Year's Day vehicle attack in the New Orleans French Quarter is analyzed as a potential "six-week cycle" event used by the FBI to secure agency funding. Evidence including coolers containing explosives and an ISIS flag are noted as typical elements of such operations. Observations of the suspect's driving on Bourbon Street suggest he may not have been intentionally targeting pedestrians despite the resulting fatalities.
