Barely a week after claiming responsibility for the deadly attacks
that claimed 132 lives in Paris, France, and for the second time
this week, terrorist sect Islamic State has threatened to blow up
the office and residence of the President of the United States,
the White House.
This is contained in a new video footage titled Paris before
Rome released on Thursday, where a turbaned man hints at
potential suicide attacks and car bombings on US soil.
An earlier video targeted at the US released by IS earlier in the
week showed the jihadists threatening to blow up New York,
showing images of Times Square, Herald Square and Manhattan.
Yet another released on Monday showed the terrorist saying the
US capital, Washington DC will be attacked the way Paris was
attacked.
The jihadists warned other countries against the example set by
French President Francoise Hollande and US President Barack
Obama, claiming they would blow up the latter’s official residence
because it contained false idols.
In a reaction to the video directed at New York, the police in the
state have confirmed seeing the video, while affirming that they
are vigilant.
However the police say there is no current specific threat to the
city at the moment.
