ISIS Member: We’re Planning A ‘Brilliant Attack’ On New York
Daily Caller ^ | 09/25/2014 | Scott Greer

Posted on 09/26/2014 7:55:36 AM PDT by Rusty0604

A Canadian member of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria issued a grim warning for the United States that his group is planning a “brilliant attack” on New York City, and claimed that they have thousands of Western prisoners they are willing to behead.

In a video conference interview with Vice News, Farah Shirdon (also known as Abu Usamah Somali) announced the plot while discussing the current operations of the terrorist group.

“We’ll sure be making attacks in New York soon [with Allah's permission]. A lot of brothers there are mobilizing right now [thanks to Allah],” Shirdon told Vice’s Shane Smith.

“What are they mobilizing for?” Smith asked.

Shirdon laughed and responded, “Mobilizing for a brilliant attack, my friend.”

He also claimed that ISIS has captured “thousands” of prisoners of the West and they plan to behead them if the United States and other countries continue their attacks.

They are basically a bunch of mouth jockeys but wouldn't move on Penn Station for the reasons you stated. A mall or hotel would be ideal but I doubt NY would actually be a first choice insomuch as they are talking it up so much ( think misdirection).

A better choice would be several smaller but coordinated actions in the heartland. These people are nuts but not stupid. What they are doing right now is prepping the field to raise the anxiety.

Very much so except in the case of this thread the operative word is planning, implying coordinated group action. This was more of an lone wolf or SJS attack but still deadly none the less. Denninger at Ticker Forum has an interesting take on that.

As a matter of fact, I could see a coordinated mall attack in numerous malls simultaneously on black Friday. I mean they did plan to steal 3 planes at the same time.
I think if or when it happens the so called (yea right) moderate muslims better come out real real fast in numerous numbers and condemn these attacks. Otherwise I can see numerous revenge attacks. It could get real real ugly.

Just like Obama likes.

Does this stuff come out of the Globalists Front Group Creative Writing unit? It's bad. B movie level. They really need to get some new material.

What am I talking about? It's still working on enough of the sheeple. They are sipping their Starbucks from under their desks.

Thanks; I’ll read it. He has been writing more about cell phones and diet lately than anything else. But I think he “shrugged” so now he just writes about what interests him.

“We’ll sure be making attacks in New York soon [with Allah's permission].”

“..with Allah's permission”

Do moon god's speak through a ouija board?

“Should we attack the infidels?”
Planchette moves towards NO, but suddenly pulls towards YES.
“Mudhat, you are making it go to YES! Stop pulling!”
“The infidels need to die, you let my arm do allah’s work”
“What makes you think that I won't slice your head off right now?”
“Let's try the prophetic 8 ball”
“It says ‘Not at this time’”
“Oh, that thing is defective! ALALALLALALALALALALALALA!!!”

IS will hit back—where and when is the only question. I Believe they will Do what they say and hit New York. How is the only question. Might be a few Lone wolfs start shootin’ folks on the subway—to a few pressure cooker bombs—Or a plan to re-do a 9-11 of some sort. It might be a Mumbai Sort of Attack—hitting with a group of armmed people at a Iconic Hotel (The Waldorf—or Trump Tower—or that place where Lennon was shot) —cut off some heads—shoot folks etc... They might go for Wall Street—or the St. Pats on a Sunday. Might be gas in the subway—or poison in the markets-or restaurants. A Broadway show might be a good place for terror as they did once in Moscow.—a landmark could do as well like Statue of Liberty, Grants Tomb, or Freedom Tower? The cards are in their hands now—and we must wait.

From other threats I’ve seen it seems they may just do individual attacks on random people in various places. If causing terror is their aim, that would work. Plus it’s easier as there is no security in less populated areas.

Hope Bill de Blasio is among the causalities because he's in bed with the Islamists. One thing certain, de Blasio won't be told because he can't be vetted for a security clearance.

If it happens, someone needs to make a sign with that on it.

If you care to, please relate your story.

I was at the Dupont Plaza Hotel in San Juan when it burned and more than 100 people died. I was out by the pool but went up to the lobby for something where I smelled the smoke. They had had a couple of fires there that week so I wasn't too upset but I tend to be cautious so I very quickly went down the stairs and the smoke was getting thicker. I ran out onto the beach when the explosions happened. They said there were no explosions but I'm telling you there were.

It was weird. And this will sound weird too. There had just been a report in the news talking about the relative likelihood of getting married versus being in a terrorist attack and concluded that the probability was low for either. All I could think of as I ran was the odds of *both* being in a terrorist attack *and* getting married. The odds of a joint occurrence seemed pretty slim. LOL

I think a secret service man died in the fire and the publisher of a big newspaper. The bad guys were trying to get the casino money for the Free Puerto Rico separatist movement.

Interesting. Also I have a strong interest in one of your comments: You observed no Muslims in their normal occupational positions (no cabbies, no fruit vendors). Is that true? If so, it implies ... no, DEMANDS... that they all knew.

Were those the bad guys that Eric Holder pardoned through Bill Clinton?

The attack wasn’t by Muslims - that I know of. I’d say the majority of the hotel guests were Jewish from the New York area and at first I figured it was an anti-Jewish attack. But I really think it was about robbing the casino money for the Free Puerto Rico movement. I was interviews by two FBI guys but they didn’t give me much information. I told them I was curious about some of the people I had met that week, curious if they had survived and how to find out. Their response was that it wasn’t a good idea to go poking around and drawing attention to myself. hmmm...

About the taxis. They were always lined up at the entrance but on that afternoon there were none. Vendors were usually on the beach with little tables of wares every afternoon. That afternoon there were none. There was usually a band playing at the pool in the afternoon. No band. Everyone was relieved. If we heard Feliz Navidad one more time we were going to scream.

And one thing I learned: be very aware of your environment. That day on the beach, right before the attack, a group of about 15 VERY attractive girls in bikinis went running up the beach. I bet they were hired to do that as a distraction. When something unusual like that happens now I have a heightened awareness.

I didn’t know they were pardoned. If so, arrrgh...

I think the group was involved with a armored car robbery somewhere near Hartford. The details are vague. I’ll try to look it up.
