A new report says that ISIS is training terrorists in Britain via video conference to carry out chemical weapons attacks on trains and other public transportation systems.
“I am convinced that IS (another name for ISIS) fighters are all being given training in chemical weapons and the British ones, who are likely to be more educated, will all be targeted in the hope they may return home,” said Colonel Hamish de Bretton-Gordon, the retired head of chemical and biological weapons for the British Army, according to the Mail Online.
The Colonel said that because of British laws, people can obtain large amounts of chlorine without a license, so the bomb could be a chlorine weapon.
“They will have a reasonable idea on how to use chlorine and other toxic chemicals as a terror weapon,” he added.
“This could happen on a train or tube or even at a big football match. Acquiring weapons and ammunition is very difficult in the UK but you can get up to 90 tonnes of chlorine without any license.”
Chlorine can burn the lungs when present in the air in a concentrated amount.
“Chlorine is not very toxic and the green and yellow clouds are easy to see and avoid. It is very non-persistent only lasting for a few minutes. It was used in the First World War but dropped because it did not work very well,” he continued.
“It is key that ISIS don’t get the advantage of an unexpected chemical attack in the UK. If you can hold your breath for 30 seconds and run in the opposite direction you will be okay. If outside you should aim to climb or reach higher ground.”
A British security guard who traveled to Iraq to defeat ISIS has told the British newspaper The Sun about an act of brutality that goes beyond anything seen so far by the terrorist group.
ISIS fighters in Mosul killed a Kurdish prisoner and then chopped up the body into little pieces. The body was then placed into a rice dish and fed to the victim’s mother when she arrived to demand her son’s release.
“The ISIS men told her to sit down because she had traveled a long way and said she could have some food before they took her to meet her son,” Yasir Abdullah said. “They brought her cups of tea and fed her a meal of cooked meat, rice and soup. She thought they were kind.”
Abdulla also confirmed that ISIS is burning many of their prisoners alive, not just the Jordanian pilot whose brutal killing was shown on video.
“They dig a trench, put tree branches and leaves in there, set it alight and then throw prisoners on so they burn alive,” Abdulla said. “IS are very good at making people scared. If they make one person scared then that person will make another person scared and soon everyone is scared of IS.”
“ISIS are wrong,” he proclaimed. “They behead, burn and get those they are against to dig their own graves before they execute them. Nobody wants to get captured by ISIS; that would be the worst thing. If I was defending, I would fight to my last bullet and use that on myself.”
Islamic terrorist group Boko Haram has released their first public video showing the beheading of two men they claim are “spies.”
“This latest release shows Boko Haram is not a mere copycat of ISIS; rather, it is incorporating itself into the Islamic State,” said Veryan Khan, editorial director of Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium.
“Islamic state supporters are already starting to call Boko Haram the ‘Islamic State Africa.'”
The video shows a farmer being beaten by Islamic state terrorists and forced to “confess” he was “spying” for local police. The video then shows the farmer and another man beheaded with their hands folded on their chests.
I believe Boko Haram is more than just copying the Islamic State — their image is being ‘shaped’ at very least in the ISIS media wing,” he continued. “Immediately after Baghdadi declared the Islamic State Caliphate, Boko Haram’s leader Abubakar Shekau did the same. We then started seeing (in the videos) the Islamic State flags being painted onto Boko Haram’s most prized possessions, their AFVs and tanks, most recently on Feb. 20 during the ops within the Northeastern Nigeria border.”
Analysts say that Boko Haram’s leader, Abubakar Shekau, is insane and too extreme even for Boko Haram. They say that Shekau mixes voodoo into his version of radical Islam.
Three New York residents have been arrested in connection with support and attempts to join ISIS.
The three men, two with Uzebkistan citizenship and the other Kazakhstan, wanted to “wage jihad” and one said he would attempt to kill the President if he was ordered to do so by ISIS leadership.
The men were identified in the complaint as Abdurasul Hasanovich Juraboev, 24, a resident of Brooklyn and a citizen of Uzbekistan; Akhror Saidakhmetov, 19, a resident of Brooklyn and a citizen of Kazakhstan; and Abror Habibov, 30, a resident of Brooklyn and a citizen of Uzbekistan.
The men were focused upon by federal authorities after making online statements supporting ISIS and calling for others to join with them to support ISIS. They also posted online in foreign message boards attempting to recruit new ISIS members.
One was arrested at JFK Airport trying to board a plane to Turkey. The other two men had place tickets for travel to the region within the next month.
The group also had plans to conduct domestic terror attacks if they could not make it to join ISIS in Syria.
“We will vigorously prosecute those who attempt to travel to Syria to wage violent jihad on behalf of ISIL and those who support them,” U.S. Attorney Loretta E. Lynch said in a statement. “Anyone who threatens our citizens and our allies, here or abroad, will face the full force of American justice.”
Five Islamic terrorists from Yemen have been released from Guantanamo Bay by the Obama administration and four were sent to Oman.
Oman is right next door to Yemen and it would be likely the terrorists could then simply cross the border into Yemen and return to their terror cells. The fifth terrorist was sent to Estonia.
“The United States coordinated with the Government of Oman to ensure these transfers took place consistent with appropriate security and humane treatment measures,” the DOD said.
Yemen has been in the spotlight since the terrorist attacks in Paris because the Al Qaeda affiliates located in Yemen planned the operations. Republican Senators are calling on the administration to stop the release of terrorists from Guantanamo and returning them to Middle East.
“It’s clear that we need a time out,” Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) said. “Now is not the time to be emptying Guantanamo.”
The Pentagon has announced that three major ISIS leaders have been killed in the last few weeks and that the airstrikes are having a “significant impact” on the terrorist organization.
General Martin Dempsey granted an interview to the Wall Street Journal where he said the highest ranked terroristed taken out in the airstrikes is Haji Mutazz, deputy to ISIS commander Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
“We believe that the loss of these key leaders degrades ISIL’s ability to command and control current operations against Iraqi Security Forces (ISF), including Kurdish and other local forces in Iraq,” Kirby told the Journal.
“While we do not discuss the intelligence and targeting details of our operations, it is important to note that leadership, command and control nodes, facilities, and equipment are always part of our targeting calculus.”
General Dempsey said that the U.S. is not attacking the group as if it was a nation despite their attempts to claim they are a new country.
“It is in the context of how to fight a network,” the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman added. “It is not a country. They have claimed it, but they are not. They are a network, so they have finances, they have logistics and they have leaders.”
A 15-year-old ISIS member captured by Kurdish forces has answered one of the questions behind why members of Islamic terrorist groups carry out suicide bomb attacks.
Kareem Mufleh says that the leaders of ISIS pump drugs into their fighters and suicide bombers so that they will carry out their missions without questions.
Muflah says that he had no choice to join ISIS.
“They captured my village and gave me a choice,” Mufleh said. “Either join ISIS or be beheaded.”
Mulfah says that the drug given to the suicide bombers was an anti-anxiety drug. They would give the drugs in such levels that the bombers would go insane and then are given a suicide belt and told where to go to carry out the attack.
Mufleh had levels of the anti-anxiety drug Zolam in his system.
The teen also described the brutality of the group. He was part of an attack on a wedding where ISIS slaughtered the bride because the wedding dress showed the bride’s arms and neck.
