"ISIS video makes threat against New York"-Leah Messinger(period1)

       Isis has made its fair share of appearances in the news in the past couple of months and they have made yet another one this week. A video was recently released by Isis that was interpreted to have been threatening an attack on New York. The video shows clips of someone holding what appears to be some type of explosive device and zipping it up under their jacket followed by an image of Harold square. This is the second U.S city to be threatened by these alarming propaganda videos and it is  raising concerns. The U.S are taking them into serious consideration although the U.S is a much larger and more difficult target for Isis because if it's distance and security.
      The fact that Isis is making these propaganda videos makes everything seem a little more real. It is scary to think that they are threatening the country that we live in however hopefully the government is prepared for anything. This relates to other terrorist attacks in the U.S /obviously, although this time it is much different because the technology of this generation allowed them to put a video like that out on social media with the potential to go viral and cause alarming reactions.

  1. Terrorists are common these days now. I get why people hate America, but why destroy it? What good would that do?

  2. It is scary to think that ISIS could attack America and we could have another episode of 9/11.
