Islamic State threatens Britain with attacks in new video

The Islamic State terrorist group released a video on Sunday purporting to show nine militants behind the November Paris attacks that killed 130 people, in which they threaten “coalition” countries including Britain.

The video posted on militant websites is entitled “Kill wherever you find them,” and shows four Belgians, three French citizens and two Iraqis said to be responsible for the attacks.

In it the militants, speaking in French and in Arabic, say their “message is addressed to all the countries taking part in the [US-led] coalition” that has been fighting IS in Syria and Iraq since September 2014.

The video shows British Prime Minister David Cameron accompanied by the words in English: “Whoever stands in the ranks of kufr [infidels] will be a target for our swords.”

The video, produced by IS's Al-Hayat Media Center, describes the nine militants as “lions” who “brought France to its knees.”

The footage shows images of the coordinated Paris attacks as well as security operations by French special forces during the onslaught.

It also depicts the nine militants carrying out atrocities, including beheading and shooting people described as hostages.

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve on Sunday said the state of emergency in France needs to be extended given the current security threat but it won’t last forever.

French President François Hollande said on Jan. 22 that he would ask parliament to extend by three months the state of emergency declared after the November attacks.

“As long as we think that there is an imminent [terrorist] threat, we need the state of emergency,” Cazeneuve told France 5 television.
