Threat Assessment: Antifa in Portland and Seattle

The number of incidents associated with Antifa in Portland and Seattle has overtaken that of BLM and other left-wing groups since the death of George Floyd.

 

There are strong links between BLM and Antifa in both US cities. Since our threat assessment report on Black Lives Matter, we've seen a significant increase in Antifa activity.

However, Intelligence Fusion's monitoring and logging of Antifa-related incidents in Portland and Seattle have shown that the group are willing to engage in more than just violent demonstrations and criminality.


The purpose of this report is to provide a threat assessment and outlook of Antifa in Portland and Seattle, and by extension provide an update on the threat posed by BLM
:

  • Overview of Antifa, their purpose, methods and end state;
  • Determine their intent and capability;
  • Analyse the relationship between BLM and Antifa;
  • Highlight the potential for escalation into the other states;
  • Assess the overall threat of Antifa in Portland and Seattle.
