736108, The FBI can’t inform the public about credible but vague threats.

They get those in the hundreds per day across the country. Even when they have specific threats, they aren’t going to tell the public about them— they’re just gonna try to find and catch the guy.

I don’t think the story implies that the memo suggested that military people specifically would be targeted. I don’t really know why the military chose to share *this* to the media of the many threats they get warned about on the regular. But sharing credible non-location-specific threats with the military doesn’t strike me as strange at all. It’s fairly common. It’s just not common that it’s written up in the news.
