Before Attack in Nice, ISIS Fighter Calls to Carry Out Lone-Wolf Attacks in France: Go Get a Truck

On-screen text: "A Message to France and to my brothers."

ISIS fighter: "Now, my brother, let us be honest with one another. Let me tell you the truth: There aren't many of us here, but there are enough of us for the infidels. Allah be praised, we are facing the beast. We are breaking its teeth, and we hope to chop off its head. But you are in the belly of the beast, my brother. So if you want Islam to be victorious, why would you want to come out of the beast and face its fangs, when you could tear out its heart and its liver? That is what I am asking you. Sheikh Adnani gave you a very clear [message]. He said: 'If they close the door on your hijra, open the doors of jihad on them, and make them regret it.' Brother, tear up your ticket to Turkey. Allah is right in front of you, brother. In the name of Allah, proceed. Don't say: 'I'm all alone, without any weapons.' It is very easy to obtain weapons. Crooks may be quite clever, but they are in the material world. Just don’t let them know that this is for religious purposes. Make up some story, and you can find a weapon in any neighborhood.

"Go get a truck... After Sheikh Adnani made his speech, knife attacks were carried out in Palestine. Not many people pointed out this [connection]. A woman took a knife to stab an [Israeli] soldier. In France, you have access to gas tanks, to trucks, and to many products that can cause a disaster, Allah be praised. We are not asking you to carry out a nuclear attack. Just kill five infidels, and end up a martyr. That would be preferable than you coming here and committing martyrdom, killing 100 people.

[…]

"Brother, you are inside the heart of the beast. I ask you: Which victory do you seek? Do you want the victory of Islam, or do you want your own victory? You know what you have to do, my brother. By Allah, rip out the heart of this beast, and tear out its liver. My brother, this message is for you. Women and children are crying. The Crusader bombings are continuing.

"Planes sowed black clouds. Make sure you are the one who causes them to harvest the lightening of Allah."
