America was hit with two terror attacks on New Year’s Day… just days after a pro-ISIS outlet called on Muslims to wage Islamic jihad in the U.S., Europe and Russia, Fox News has reported.
Wednesday morning an Islamist driving a rented pickup with an ISIS flag mowed down dozens of people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans while they were celebrating the New Year, killing 15 people and injuring another 30.
Although there is not yet any evidence the second incident was an Islamic attack, just hours later Wednesday morning, a man drove a rented Tesla Cybertruck, loaded with fuel and explosives, up to the front door of the Trump International Hotel in Las Vegas and detonated the whole thing, causing a massive explosion. The driver of vehicle was killed, and seven bystanders were injured.
This all comes after a Saudi doctor intentionally drove into a busy Christmas market in Germany nearly two weeks ago, killing 5 and injuring about 200 others.
Below is an excerpt from Fox News:
On Sunday, a pro-ISIS outlet turned to Telegram and called on Muslims living in the US, Europe and Russia to conduct attacks on New Year’s Eve.
“Oh monotheists in Europe, America, Russia and other lands of the Crusaders, we know that you are eager to join your brothers in the land of Jihad, but the paths have been cut off for you,” a translated version of the post read. “The Crusaders are among you. Their security has been prolonged, and your brothers are being killed.
“The time has come to take out the swords from their sheaths and to hamstring the horses in their places that Allah loves and is pleased with,” the post continued. “They are preparing for the feast of their polytheism, so turn their feast into mourning and their joy into a calamity.”
The outlet asked Muslims, or “Crusaders,” if they felt safe in their homes as their brothers and sisters were in detention centers and camps, before calling on them to “repeat the attack on them and repeat the days of those who preceded you on this path.”
“So, lie in wait for them, lie in wait, and seize opportunities and attack them like a hungry lion attacks its heedless prey,” the message read. “Let none of you be cowardly or weak, and let the saying of Allah be before your eyes: Come and fight the polytheists all together as they fight you all together, so put your trust in God and repeat the days of terror against the Crusaders with killing, spite and torture, for the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: ‘An unbeliever and his killer will never meet in the Fire, so support God and He will support you, and be honest with Him.’”
