The ISIS has boasted that its “brave knights” brought Paris “down on its knees” in the latest edition of its online propaganda magazine that also warns that the terror group is preparing for fresh attacks in Bangladesh.
The new issue of ISIS’ English-language online magazine Dabiq, in its foreword, talks about the horrific attacks in France in which explosions and shooting at separate entertainment sites in Paris claimed over 120 lives.
“France haughtily began executing airstrikes against the Khilafah (Caliphate). like Russia, it was blinded by hubris (arrogance), thinking that its geographical distance from the lands of the Khilafah would protect it,” the magazine says. “Thus, the Islamic State dispatched its brave knights to wage war in the homelands of the wicked crusaders, leaving Paris and its residents ‘shocked and awed’. The eight knights brought Paris down on its knees,” the foreword says.
The terror group, known for its brutality, boasts that, “a nationwide state of emergency was declared as a result of the actions of eight men armed only with assault rifles and explosive belts.”
The terror group’s strategic expansion to countries like Bangladesh is also talked about at length in the magazine and interestingly an entire article has been dedicated to its activities in Bangladesh or “Bengal” as it refers to the country. “A security cell belonging to the soldiers of the Khilafah in Bengal assassinated an Italian ‘crusader’ named Cesare Tavella on the streets of Gulshan in the city of Dhaka...Only days later another security cell targeted a Japanese citizen in the northern region of Rangpur,” the magazine says reiterating the ISIS’ claim of carrying out the attacks.
“These back-to-back attacks have caused havoc among the citizens of the crusader nations and their allies living in Bengal and forced their diplomats, tourists, and expats to limit their movements and live in a constant state of fear,” it boasts.
