NEW RELEASE ISIS VIDEO - Responce to Obama message to put foot soldiers on the ground! VIDEO CALLED Flames of War Trailer In one of the Islamic Stateâs first responses to President Obamaâs declaration that he would âdegrade and ultimately destroyâ it, the group released a short video late Tuesday in which it appeared to say that its militants would kill American ground forces should President Obama deploy them. It begins with American tanks and troops under attack by fire and American soldiers carrying a wounded comrade into an armored vehicle. The images flick by, including a shot of the âMission Accomplishedâ banner that served as a backdrop on the day President George W. Bush landed on an aircraft carrier six weeks after the United States invaded Iraq in 2003. That is followed by shots of Mr. Obama and the White House at night. In the background, Mr. Obama is heard saying, âAmerican combat troops will not be returning to fight in Iraq.â The screen goes dark, and then a clip is played of what appears to be a militant for the group who is preparing to execute men on their knees. The words âFlames of Warâ appear, with the phrase âFighting has just begunâ below. Laith Alkhouri, a senior analyst at Flashpoint Global Partners, a New York security consulting firm that tracks militant websites, said the Islamic State âappears to be more relentless than ever, not only expanding in territory but also raising the bar in its confrontation with the worldâs top superpower.â âIn some ways, itâs attempting to prove to jihadists that while Al Qaeda is missing in action, we are rising to the occasion,â Mr. Alkhouri said. âIt demonstrates the true intention of the group, to operate on an international level.â youtu.be/Td9SyiIRHWs
