### FBI Foiled Plots and the Six-Week Cycle Theory

- **Episode:** [614: Fruity Drinks](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/614-fruity-drinks.md)
- **Published:** 2014-05-04
- **Time:** 14:16–17:32
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/614-fruity-drinks/chapter/fbi-foiled-plots-and-the-six-week-cycle-theory.md

The hosts evaluate a recent FBI operation in Seattle involving Larry Gillette and alleged plots against the Space Needle and Walmart. This event is analyzed through the "six-week cycle" theory, which suggests the FBI frequently sets up patsies in manufactured terror plots to justify budget and authority. The lack of a radicalization angle and the "lone wolf" nature of the suspect are noted as deviations from the typical pattern.

### National Jitters and Media Fear-Mongering

- **Published:** 2013-04-18
- **Time:** 52:00–56:30
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/505-speculation-analysis/chapter/national-jitters-and-media-fear-mongering.md

A montage of local news clips illustrates the "jitters" felt across the country, from San Francisco to Seattle. The hosts mock reports of increased security at landmarks like the Space Needle and the "breaking news" of an unattended U-Haul truck in Oklahoma City. They argue this is a deliberate strategy to keep the American public on edge.

### LAX Bombing Plot, Symbolic Targets

- **Published:** 2008-10-25
- **Time:** 34:00–37:16
- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/53-gay-marriage/chapter/lax-bombing-plot-symbolic-targets.md

Dvorak recounts the failed "Millennium Plot" to bomb Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), where a terrorist was caught entering from Canada through Port Angeles, Washington. He argues that terrorists prefer targets with high economic and symbolic impact, such as airports or the World Trade Center, rather than the Space Needle or Sears Tower. The hosts discuss the panic-driven cancellations of public events in Seattle and San Francisco following various rumors.
