ISIS Threatens Washington,DC After Paris Terror Attacks
After the series of attacks that left at least 129 people killed and over 300 critically injured in Paris, a new video has been released by ISIS members waging an attack on our nation's capital.
The video which appeared on a site used by Islamic State to post its messages, begins with news footage of the aftermath of Friday’s Paris shootings.(CNN)
It continues with a man dressed in fatigues and a turban stating “We say to the states that take part in the crusader campaign that, by God, you will have a day, God willing, like France’s and by God, as we struck France in the center of its abode in Paris, then we swear that we will strike America at its center in Washington".
The "Crusader Campaign" refers to those countries who have stepped up and spoke out against the recent Paris attacks , administering aid and organized retaliation towards the Islamic terrorist group that was behind the violent attacks.
Though the U.S. Department of Homeland Security would not comment on the video it has been reported that they have yet to receive direct information indicating a potential attack by ISIS.
"While we take all threats seriously, we do not have specific credible information of an attack on the U.S. homeland," a DHS representative.
In any event, I still am praying for our country and the rest of the world that we can bring an end to this devastating violence. I hope that everyone is up on all of these developing stories and is aware of his or her surroundings. These are troubling times we are living in and an attack can happen when we least expect. Remain diligent and prayed up.
