ISIS Spokesman Calls for Attacks on Arab Nations
(New York Times) Rukmini Callimachi - Islamic State spokesman Abu Hassan al-Muhajir on Sunday called on fighters to redirect their ire toward the leaders of neighboring Arab nations, a departure from his last pronouncement which aimed to incite attacks against Europe and North America. The spokesman said there was "no difference" between fighting the leaders of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iran, the Palestinians "and their American Crusader allies, or the Russians or the Europeans." They deserved to be treated even more harshly because "these are Arabs and are more fierce and vicious against Islam."
