ISIS WARNS – AT 9:33 A.M. ET: And, given the record, I'd take their warnings seriously. From Rowan Scarborough in the Washington Times:
Islamic State terrorists have taken to social media to tell the West that the March 22 attacks in Brussels are just the beginning of waves of violence that will strike more targets in Europe and the United States.
The messages were produced by the Islamic State’s media company, Al-Wafa, which published a series of deadly predictions that indicate the terror army based in Syria has scores of attacks in the pipeline.
“America, You Are Next” is the headline on one column. The U.S. is leading a coalition whose objective, through air strikes and commando raids, is to defeat or destroy the Islamic State and its so-called Caliphate in Syria-Iraq.
“America has forgotten that Muslims do not accept humiliation and will not forget to retaliate,” says the article, according to a translation by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), which monitors jihadi communications traffic
“We haven’t forgotten the screams of the virgin girls who were raped when you invaded Iraq. Today, with Allah’s help, we will avenge them and restore every maiden’s honor. Today we will blow up your honor, today we will eliminate your myth, today we will take your women captive and sell them at slave markets at prices reserved for the most unclean. Today we will take your children and raise them among Muslim children until they grow up, fight, and break the noses of those who remain among you.”
The writer points to the San Bernardino massacre carried out by American-born Syed Farook and his wife.
“Then how about we send you 10 Syed Farooks? How about we send you eight lions like the heroes who set France on fire [Nov. 13] and turned it on its head,” the writer says.
The Islamic State, also known was ISIL and ISIS, has pledged in previously posts to infiltrate with its terrorists the streams of refugees from the Syria civil war.
President Obama over the weekend said he plans to bring more migrants into the country as a show of opposition against ISIL.
Another Al-Wafa article specifically threatens Europe under the headline, “Today It Is Brussels and [Its] Airport, and Tomorrow It Might Be Portugal and Hungary.”
COMMENT: Is anyone listening? Hillary? Bernie? Donnie? Ted? John? Our political campaign has gotten so childish and trivial, that we are forgetting the huge locomotive coming at us.
The Brussels attack came only four months after the Paris attacks. That shows ISIS has the ability to carry out major attacks in rapid succession. Clearly, we have to be on guard against an ISIS attempt to disrupt our presidential election. What a prize for those who dream of a new Caliphate.
