New ISIS video threatens attack on White House

The Dijla branch of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) released a new video depicting unidentified jihadists celebrating the recent attacks on Paris and vowing the attacks would "conclude with the so-called White House."

In the video - titled "Paris Before Rome" -- militants warn French President Francois Hollande, U.S. President Barack Obama "and those who follow in his footsteps" to expect more strikes.

"We shall burn you with our suicide belts and our car bombs. We shall track you down wherever you go," a militant proclaims.

The jihadists warn that the attacks on France would expand to Washington, D.C.

"We began with you, and we shall conclude with the so-called White House. We shall turn it even blacker than our fire by the will of Allah," a militants says in the video. "Better still ... we shall blow it up just like we blew up the idols on this good land."

They left out the plan to turn it into a mosque after it is blown up. It will be the 10918th holiest site in their religion and will be off limits to counter attacks. They have a nice one way street going with that strategy

Yes I know they are upset but I really am pissed off at them blowing up our antiquities around the world that can't be replaced. God forbid if they blow up the White House it would be a crime of course but we lost it once already 200 years ago. I wonder if Mrs. Obama would grab the portrait of George Washington did like Mrs. Madison did. Oh let's hope never to find out. Please protect our President and his family Secret Service and others.

But I am not really terribly worried about the White House. I think we will protect that at all costs thankfully. ISIS really is getting arrogant and that is not good typically with anyone.

Because nobody ever thought that some insane jackass would think it was a potential target.

But, thanks for amplifying their nuttery.

Any assault would get cut to pieces before they got halfway across the lawn. OTOH, that guy hopped the fence last summer and made it all the way to the bottom of the stairway to the family quarters

that you are ready! You will have a VERY WARM reception waiting on you. Ok, ok.... actuallly a HOT RECEPTION... as in "hot lead" flying at you from all directions! You will find out, first hand, just how fast we come together as AMERICANS, against a COMMON ENEMY.. YOU! We will put aside differences in Political afilliation, gender identity, sexual preference and even religion, to stand as ONE, UNITED AGAINST A FOREIGN ENEMY!

You must be REALLY STUPID to believe that if you blow yourselves up, along with innocent civillians, that you are going to have 72 virgins waiting on you in Heaven. Actually, "Allah" and "Mohammed", if they exist, are pointing at you and laughing their asses off, saying "Look! *ANOTHER IDIOT* is falling for it! Won't you be glad when these dumbasses are gone, so we can return our religion back to one of Peace & Love?"

Then they go piss on the smoldering pieces of your bodies as they watch the demons drag you away to your own private HELL!

Again, come find out just how quickly we come together as AMERICANS against FOREIGN INVADERS! I **DARE** YOU TO!

Fuck you very much,

Ghost
