The Islamic State has been threatening attacks against the U.S. and against all Western interests and a “global war with Israel” long before the Trump decision.
Appeasement never works with jihadists. They will hate Israel, hate Western democracy, hate infidels, and hate apostates, no matter what. Jihadists have grown accustomed to being appeased by Westerners and are now issuing still more threats in response to Trump standing up to them. Trump and all Western governments urgently need to step up national security measures.
“ISIS threatens attacks on US soil over Trump’s Jerusalem decision”, RT News, December 14, 2017:
Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) has threatened attacks in the United States in retaliation for Donald Trump’s decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, according to one of the terrorist group’s social media accounts.
The message was relayed on an account on the Telegram instant message service. In that message, IS said it would carry out operations in the US, showing photos of New York’s Times Square and what appeared to be an explosive belt and detonator.
Calling the US president a “dog,” the message promised a response to that decision by “recognizing explosives” as the capital of the United States, Reuters reported.
Trump announced his formal recognition of the ancient city as the Jewish state’s capital last week. “I have determined that it is time to officially recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. Previous presidents have made this a major campaign promise, they failed to deliver. Today, I am delivering,” he said.
The move prompted anger across the Muslim world, along with criticism from most EU states, Russia and China.
On Wednesday, Hamas renewed its call for a new infitada, or uprising: “The Hamas movement has called on the Palestinian people to face the Israeli occupation and adopt the blessed intifada option against it and against the American decision on Jerusalem,” Hamas spokesperson Abdullatif Al Qanoua told RT.
Meanwhile, Iran’s defense minister said Trump’s decision would speed up the destruction of Tehran’s arch rival: “(Trump‘s) move will hasten the destruction of the Zionist regime [Israel] and will double unity among Muslims,” Brigadier General Hatami told a meeting of senior military officials Monday, as cited by various Iranian media outlets.
‘Day of Rage’ protests were called in the West Bank, Gaza, and Jerusalem following Trump’s announcement, leading to hundreds being injured. Others demonstrated in Asian capitals and in Europe, with Israeli flags being burned in Berlin.
In an emergency UN Security Council meeting following the decision, British ambassador Matthew Rycroft said the UK “disagrees” with Trump’s decision, while France said it “regrets” the move. German Chancellor Angela Merkel has also stressed that Berlin “does not support” Trump’s decision, while EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini said the European Union would continue to recognize the “international consensus” on Jerusalem.
However, the US remains steadfast, with US envoy to the UN Nikki Haley stating on Sunday that “the sky hasn’t fallen” following Trump’s decision. She insisted that the move was the “right thing to do” and that it’s “just reality” that Jerusalem is indisputably the capital of Israel…..
R Russell says
If it wasn’t Trump’s decision to acknowledge Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, ISIS would have found another reason to attack the US.

Yep.

They were *already* threatening to attack.
And then there are all the *other* mohammedan entities, state (Iran) and non-state (Al-Qaeda) that have issued or are still issuing similar threats.
Bottom line is: the USA is a big, rich Infidel state. A pirate’s dream of plunder. Therefore the mohammedan mob lusts to destroy and pillage it, lay it waste, kill the men and rape and enslave the women and kids. Because that’s what mohammedans have been doing ever since they raided the Khaybar Oasis. Armed robbery with violence.

The now-virtual Islamic State is no longer burdened with the administration of a real territory. It can now concentrate on terror. It is quite the hobby horse for bored middle-class Muslim teenagers, many in the West, looking for a cause, any cause.

Does anybody know why all these countries don’t support the Jerusalem move?

As Robert Spencer wrote in his book, “Arab Winter comes to America” :
“….guardians of our safety insist that there is no fire, no fire at all.
That fire is raging hotter than ever. It’s time we sound the alarm.” (As in a Three Alarm Fire !!!)
{ Definitely a different rendition of that comedy movie from Eddie Murphy: “Coming To America” !
Time for a remake, but with a different spin. }

What? Jews in Jerusalem? But I thought UNESCO was in the process of declaring that no such thing ever happened.

As a famous man once said, “Go ahead, make my day..” Nothing in any of these articles surprises me anymore. That is, except for the willful blindness and stupidity of our so-called leaders that keep insisting that we need to bring in more of these self-appointed holy warriors into our homes.

Stop importing mohamedans.
Start finding ways of removing as many as possible, under existing laws; and start figuring out how to rejig the laws so as to be able to remove *more* of them.

If the modern Jewish state of Israel had never been established, Muslims would still be threatening and attacking the infidel USA, if they felt strong enough to do so.
Muslims – the Barbary pirates – attacked American shipping in the Mediterranean in the late 18th and early 19th century, long, long before the restoration of Israel.
And if America were – which the mercy of God forbid! – destroyed tomorrow, or if America had never existed, the Jihad would be waged unabated against every Infidel society on the face of the planet.
That is what the ‘blame America for Jihad’ and ‘blame the Jooz for jihad’ crew, who proliferate among the USeful Idiots on social media and elsewehre, absolutely fail or refuse to grasp.

We keep hearing from Muslims and their liberal apologists that ISIS ‘has nothing to do with Islam’,so why would it be of any concern to ISIS who claims Jerusalem as their capital?
unbeleiver1 says
ISIS is in good company. Malaysia has offered to send its army to Jerusalem if requested by the PA.
“Malaysia ‘ready’ to send military to Jerusalem if needed to help Palestinians”

*FACEPALMS* I already thought of this.(I am Malaysian Chinese),I already suspecting my country is secretly supporting ISIS because you know,they (Muslims) say ISIS works with Israel and US but they betrayed the countries tho.After listening the claim I suspect that ISIS might be “crowned as good” by Muslims because they fight/hate US and Israel,and both countries are considered as Muslim World’s enemies.(US-War on Terror/Israel-Jerusalem and Palestinian Territories).Thanks for the news,now I suspect that my country’s army might not be peacekeeping,but rather using the opportunity to kill some Israeli citizens there(while guarding the Palestinians).Damn,Indonesia just recently arrived at West Bank.

Come let us March on heaven

To signify the slaughter of the gods
from Tamburlaine by Christopher Marlowe
Timur the lame was a Turko Mongolian who led armies that conquered vast territories. And guess what peaceful religion he did his conquering for. Seems the Elizabethans knew pretty well what Islam was all about.
