ISIS Members React to Coalition Strikes: America Will Meet Its End Here

In a video-clip posted on the Internet on October 1, 2014, ISIS members in Al-Raqqah, Syria, were asked about their response to the coalition airstrikes. "Allah willing, America will meet its end in the land of the Levant," one said. "This will spell their annihilation," another said.

 

Following are excerpts:

 

 

Interviewer: What is your message to the Byzantine dog Obama and to his allies?

 

 

[...}

 

 

ISIS fighter: By Allah, even if planet Earth in its entirety united to fight the Islamic State, they would not harm the Islamic State in any way, because any force that is not divine is a fleeting force. We, on the other hand, draw our strength from Allah.

 

 

Interviewer: Dear brother, what do you think about people who belittle the Islamic State, calling it a cardboard state, or using the name "ISIS"?

 

 

[...]

 

 

ISIS fighter: The fact that you call us ISIS and all the things that you say about us do nto bother us one bit. More than six or seven countries have already recognized this "ISIS," which is larger than Britain. This is what they call a cardboard state. In the days to come, we will see which is the real cardboard state.

 

 

Interviewer: Tell us about the morale of the Islamic State soldiers, who are confronting the global coalition.

 

 

Second ISIS fighter: Allah be praised, the morale of the brothers is high. The Crusaders want to set foot in the land of the Levant, but this will be the end of them, Allah willing. This is the beginning of the end for America. Allah willing, America will meet its end in the land of the Levant, in the territory of the Islamic State.

 

 

The Islamic State is here to stay and to expand.

 

 

[...]

 

 

Third ISIS fighter: Allah promises us victory, whereas Obama the Crusader infidel promised us defeat. We await a victory that will come from Allah. Allah tells the truth, and Obama tells lies.

 

 

[...]

 

 

Fourth ISIS fighter: All that is left is the sword, so they are welcome here. This will spell their annihilation, Allah willing. The Islamic State and its soldiers are prepared.
