WASHINGTON â" A new Islamic State video warns of deadly consequences in the United States or any other country that joins the French in their punishing airstrikes against the radical group's training camps and other facilities in Syria and Iraq. http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2We tell countries participating in the crusader campaign: We swear that you will experience a similar day to the one that France experiences; since if we have struck France in its heart â" in Paris â" then we swear that we will strike America at its heart â" in Washington,http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2 said a militant who calls himself Al-Ajkrar Al-Iraqi, according to a translation provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute. The video was released by Salah al-Din Province in northeastern Iraq, according to MEMRI. Salah al-Din includes Tikrit, the birthplace of Iraq's former dictator Saddam Hussein, which borders Kirkuk, the Kurdish-held northern Iraqi city that stopped the radical group's advance as it seized parts of Iraq and Syria last year. The video also warned European nations not to interfere with the group's drive to create a http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2caliphatehttp://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2 across a wide swath of Syrian and Iraq that would be governed by a strict interpretation of Islam. http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2I say to European countries: We are coming to you with car bombs and explosions. We are coming to you with explosive vests and silencers. You cannot respond to us because we are far stronger now than we were before,http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2 another speaker, Abu Gharib Al-Jazae'ri said in the video. The authenticity of the video could not be immediately confirmed. The 12-minute video came as France launched a second day of airstrikes against ISIS targets in Raqqa, Syria, in retaliation for a coordinated attack in Paris that the militant group claimed it had planned. The Paris attack, conducted by suicide bombers and gunfire, killed 132 people. Seven attackers were killed and Paris and other European authorities continued to search for an eighth terrorist who is the suspected mastermind of the assault. MEMRI founder Yigal Carmon said the threats should be seen as a clear warning to http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2stay away.http://www.outsuab.pro/sd96a6sds551s7ads4b39s2604s4se14f2 ISIS' ideology is different from its parent group al-Qaeda, which sought to draw the West into a war on Muslim soil, Carmon said. ISIS is no friend to the West but it's first priority is to govern according to its medieval version of Islam, and to battle its near enemies â" al-Qaeda, moderate Sunni Muslims, and Shiites, Carmon said. |
