Full title: ISIS vows New Year’s Eve attacks, says “We’re going to fight until we rule the whole world by the Sharia”

“ISIS Promises to Kill Drunk People Celebrating New Year’s Eve Around the World In First Video From Somalia,” by Tom O’Connor, Newsweek, December 26, 2017:

The Somali affiliate of the Islamic State militant group (ISIS) released its first video late Monday, offering gruesome threats to those celebrating the holidays with drunken revelry.

The debut, nearly eight-and-a-half-minute video began with a shot of a Christmas tree, champagne being poured in a tall glass and the voices of partygoers counting down to the New Year. Instead of shouts of “Happy New Year,” however, after “one” came a man yelling “Allahu Akbar” [God is greater] and the sounds of violence the militant group has been notorious for causing and inspiring around the world. A narrator then beckoned ISIS supporters to take advantage of intoxicated people and large gatherings for Christmas and New Years as “a new opportunity” to perpetrate death and destruction[.]

“This message is for the brothers who are living among the kuffar [infidels]. Don’t you feel the pain of the Muslim brothers living in Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Burma and Palestine? The prophet—salla Allahu ‘alayhi wa-sallam [blessings of God be upon him and peace]—said, ‘The kafir [infidel] and his killer will never be joined in the hellfire.’ Which means, killing a kafir is your ticket out of jahenim [hell],” an unidentified, masked man told the camera while holding what appeared to be a Kalashnikov assault rifle.

“I thought they were going to attack churches over Christmas this year. I guess they’ve moved that along to the next festivity.”

Exactly. That failed so they are moving on to the next holiday.

Well, I should be fine since I don’t drink and I’ll be at home that night.

It’s too cold out for them. Wait until the weather warms up.

Sooner or later they will succeed witb a particularly heinous attack such as on a school or hospital that will rouse up the wrath of the American people. At tbat point tbe guilty and tbose who abetted them by their complicity will suffer a terrible fate. Islam may well be totally wiped out by the end of tbis century
