Terror drills are part of the "war on terror". In theory, they help defend against "terrorists". In practice, many such events seem to coincide with or immediately presage actual attacks.

A "terror drill" (or "terror exercise") is a rehearsed "terrorist" attack, purportedly carried out to improve or check people's responses to such an event. As the "war on terror" has burgeoned, they have multiplied dramatically (and become increasingly gory). The general public may or may not be given advanced warning, although local police are legally required to notify the public in some cases.

Official narrative

Terror drills are intended to help the authorities respond quickly and effectively to the growing threat of "terrorism". Even primary schools should have such exercises. Information about such drills is often of a sensitive nature and so is not generally released publicly. Children may be exposed to such exercises without warning, even fearing for their lives, since withholding the warning allows exercise in order “to be as realistic as possible.”

As of September 2017 Wikipedia had no page for "Terror drill" or "Terror exercise" and it was not in the disambiguation page of "drill".

Concerns

The terror drill in 2016 in which the fake bomber used a "religious phrase".

While such events provide a chance to rehearse responses to atrocities, they may also provide similar practice to the perpetrators. Moreover, they provide excellent cover for false flag events. Participants may or may not be aware of the possibility that exercises can suddenly "go live" - for example, by the simple expedient of replacing fake explosives with real explosives. Real explosives are used in exercises - in 2016, the Washington Post reported that a routine check on a US school bus had spotted explosives which the CIA stated had been accidentally left there after a training exercise a week beforhttps://wikispooks.com/w/index.php?title=Terror_drill&action=edite. The CIA also admits that it lies to its own employees, so should not take much imagination to see that "terror drills" could very easily go live with minimal chance of detection. This conjecture is strengthened by the list of attacks which had coincident drills. Evidence that terror drills actually improve responses to a terrorist alert is uncertain; on 9/11, many people report confusion about whether an event was actually happening or whether it was only a drill.

In 2016, UK Police publicly apologised after a fake Islamist suicide bomber used a "religious phrase" during a drill.

On 21 September 2016, chance discovery of in a cave in France revealed an apparent "terrorist" base, complete with audio and video recording equipment, a generator, arabic language newspapers and ISIS flags. Local police, whom protocol required should have been notified in advance of an exercise, denied all knowledge. Information was passed up the chain of command to the DGSE and the French Ministry of Defence. More than two hours after the first report, a statement was made that it was part of an exercise, a claim which although not substantiated by further details or documentation went almost unquestioned by the commercially-controlled media .

Co-incident drills and attacks

Various permutations have cropped up, but a large number of attacks, especially those later blamed on "Islamic extremists" seem to have co-incident or near co-incident drills. These are sometimes discovered by accident, sometimes admitted in the face of evidence. The cases of Peter Power (7-7) and Patrick Pelloux (2015-11 Paris attacks) are even more interesting. Both were probably quite familiar with false flag attacks (Power has an "anti-terrorism" background while Pelloux reportedly was at the Charlie Hebdo Attack and informed François Hollande about it) and may have volunteered the information of an almost concurrent drill as a form of life insurance.

The Russian apartment bombings were a series of explosions that hit four apartment blocks in Russia in September 1999. On 22 September 1999, a similar bomb was found and defused in the Russian city of Ryazan and when the suspected perpetrators were arrested, they produced FSB identity cards and were released on orders from Moscow. Two days later Federal Security Service (FSS) Director Nikolai Patrushev announced that the Ryazan incident had been a training exercise. The Ryazan FSB denied any knowledge.

2001 September 11th

The National Reconnaissance Office exercise of 9 a.m. September 11, 2001 involved a corporate jet crashing into one of the a towers of the NRO Headquarters in Chantilly, Virginia. tellingly, it was not made public until almost a year later. A large number of other government organisations had "terrorism" exercises that day. Most remarkable was the fact that NORAD had more exercise on that day than ever before - several of which were involving the hijacking of planes, and lead to not only confusion of employees about what was real and what was an exercise, but a lot of aircraft being elsewhere and so unavailable to intercept the aircraft which crashed into buildings.

On March 11, 2004, around 7:40 a.m., ten bombs exploded on four trains in the space of a few minutes, killing 191 people. NATO Secretary General, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, described it as a "coincidence" that on 4 March 2004, there was an anti-terrorist exercise (CMX-04) in Madrid, which anticipated killing 200 people, finishing just a few hours before the bombings. He reportedly visited Madrid on 1 March 2004, just 3 days before the exercise.

Peter Power, a former Anti-Terrorist Branch Metropolitan police officer and "crisis management specialist" volunteered the information that on 7-7 that he was working running a drill "based on simultaneous bombs going off precisely at the railway stations where it happened this morning". In an interview he gave to the Manchester Evening News he spoke of "an exercise involving mock broadcasts when it happened for real". Peter Clarke, head of the Counter Terrorism Command at Scotland Yard reports that he spent "the weekend before the London bombings of July 7 2005 with my colleagues in the anti-terorism[sic] branch, working through our response to.. multiple simultaneous attacks on the Tube".

Biological weapon	“The SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus features a so-called furin cleavage site (FCS), which makes the virus more infectious and virulent than it would otherwise be. Such an FCS is not known in any other SARS-like coronavirus, but it is often inserted as part of gain-of-function studies in virus research. However, similar FCS are known to occur in non-SARS-like coronaviruses, hence a natural origin cannot be excluded based on this. The furin cleavage site found in SARS-CoV-2 uses an arginine (amino acid) double codon, which is rather rare in natural coronaviruses, but quite common in engineered viruses used in lab experiments (...)”

"Terror drills" are not just about preparing people for terror. This page examines many incidents of "terrorism" with co-incident drills, allowing a disturbing bigger picture to emerge.
