Some of the group's dramatic attacks like the Easter 2019 Sri Lanka bombings, the attack on a Turkish nightclub on New Year's Eve 2017, or the 2017 truck attacks in New York City and Stockhol revealed jihadism's persistent appeal to a global audience.

Since the Islamic State's emergence, Central Asians have been involved in repeated attacks in Turkey, including the assault on Istanbul's Ataturk Airport and the high-profile massacre at the city's Reina nightclub on New Year's Eve 2017, as well as attacks using vehicles that were driven into crowds in 2017 in Stockholm , and New York City on Halloween that year, as well as an underground bombing in St. Petersburg.

BLM is the new face of the Islamic State here in the USA. What do you think the coordinated attacks on monuments, symbols, and any and all physical representations of capitalist striving like businesses large and small, arson, looting, rioting, mayhem, really are if not the attempt to delineate the outlines of a Caliphate across the geographic American plain? 4 months of this, coupled with 6 months of lockdown restrictions constitute an exercise to see where to go next——which, ironically, doesn’t need definition, because the election looms barely more than a week from now. While we were primed to “say something if you see something” after 9-11, the FBI was curating relationships with people who were carrying out successful terrorism,like the two Tsaernev (sp?) brothers. And out of sight the plans were being hatched for how to make 2020 the pivotal year in American History. I have said for at least 25 years that our own “Left” has only loathing for this country and its history, and would eventually push us toward a Civil War.
