‘Paris Before Rome’ Video Talks White House, 10 Gunmen Give Muslim Declaration Of Faith Test In Mali [Video]
There have been new threats from ISIS that have directly threatened to blow up the White House, reports the New York Daily News. The new video is called “Paris Before Rome,” and in the video, ISIS extremists rant about threats to destroy the White House and to “pulverize your palaces.”
Nearly six minutes long, the video seen on the New York Daily News from ISIS is not being called a credible threat. Although the FBI investigates every video, the new “Paris Before Rome” video is being likened to publishing a news story or magazine article – not the type of credible threats that the FBI uncovers via actual intelligence measures.
The new “Paris Before Rome” video contains plenty of rhetoric from ISIS about approaching the White House and leading others like slaves and dogs. It repeats several phrases over and over again.
After the “Paris Before Rome” video was released by ISIS, potential attacks in the wake of Paris include landmarks such as St. Peter’s in Rome and those in Milan, reports the Independent?. Well-known landmarks like St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome, the La Scala opera house, and Milan’s famous cathedral are being bandied about after the “Paris Before Rome” video was released.
“Allah willing, we shall roast them with [explosive] belts and car bombs. We shall follow them wherever they may go. Allah willing, we shall lead them like slaves, like dogs. Allah willing, you shall know no happiness, and will not live for long.
“We started with you, and we shall finish with the false White House, which we shall render black with our fire, Allah willing. We shall blow it up like we blew up the false idols in this good land. Oh Crusaders everywhere, know that you are under threat, and that Allah has ordered us to fight you.”
Another potential ISIS event occurred when terrorist attacked a luxury hotel in the Mali capital and took 170 hostages, reports the Washington Post.
Of note was the fact that the 10 gunmen who raided the Radisson Blu hotel in Bamako not only shouted “Allahu Akbar” — or the Arabic term for “God is great” — but they also asked folks to say the Muslim declaration of faith. Those who could recite the Muslim declaration of faith, also called the shahada, were reportedly allowed to leave.
The so-called “Declaration of Faith (Shahadah)” is called the primary statement that a Muslim should know and be able to state, and they are supposed to be able to know how to say the pledge in Arabic, without hesitation.
“There is no God but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger.”
However, those same words fly in the face of any of the basic biblical statements that a Christian has learned and believed, such as John 14:6 that directly refutes the above Muslim declaration of faith.
“Jesus answered, ‘I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.'”
As a result of previous threats to Washington D.C. from ISIS, U.S. Secret Service officers have been spotted standing guard outside the White House. With folks in Paris still reeling from the losses in and around their city, with ISIS claiming responsibility for killing 139 people in Paris, the new threats are being examined seriously.
With major holidays approaching in the U.S., people on social media are talking about how the ISIS threats will affect their travel plans, if at all. Some folks are tweeting that while they would have loved to visit Europe, that desire has waned in light of the ISIS attacks in Paris.
