Regardless, the capability is the real issue
No matter what it is, whether it be the threat of a another small terrorist entity, trumped up, or raising the specter of an attack here, the terror switch is there to use. That's the crux of it, the details are almost irrelevant at this point, backdrop really. They'll do an assessment and decide then what their best option at creating a rallying point will be at that time, end of story. I'm curious to see what it will be, but it's the tactic that can be utilized that I'm more concerned with.
