Online activist collective claims WWE Survivor Series targeted for ISIS terrorist attack, FBI officials comment

Anonymous claimed Saturday that the WWE Survivor Series event in Atlanta, Georgia is among the worldwide targets for ISIS terrorist attacks on Sunday. International Business Times published the following list of additional potential targets listed by Anonymous, whom they list as a "loose collective of online activists."

-Cigales Electroniques with Vocodecks, RE-Play & Rawtor at Le Bizen (Paris)
-Concrete Invites Drumcode: Adam Beyer, Alan Fitzpatrick, Joel Mull at Concrete (Paris)
-Demonstration by Collectif du Droit des Femmes (Paris)
-Feast of Christ the King celebrations (Rome/Worldwide)
-Al-Jihad, One Day One Juz (Indonesia)
-Five Finger Death Punch (Milan)
-University Pastoral Day (Holy Spirit University of Kaslik, Lebanon)
The Anonymous collective who reported the news included the following statement: "The goal is to make sure the whole world, or at least the people going to these events, know that there have been threats and that there is possibility of an attack to happen. Another goal is to make sure Daesh knows that the world knows and cancels the attacks, which will disorientate them for a while."


:Anonymous declared war on ISIS last week and claims to have taken down 20,000 Islamic State-linked Twitter accounts. WWE officials are aware of this story and we will pass along any statement they make on the matter.

Meanwhile, Jim Butterworth, the director of the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, released the following statement to WSBTV.com. "His agency is working closely with the FBI, the Georgia information sharing and analysis center and others in evaluating the threat on a Sunday WWE event in Atlanta reported by the group Anonymous."

Opinionated View- I do work security for a living now and just from what I have see you always try to be aware. It the kind of thing the WWE no doubt does worry about.
