Days after two men were arrested in Arizona and charged with planning to support the Islamic State group, an organization that monitors the terrorist network is issuing an alert that the group may have set its sights on major Western cities.
Ahmed Mahad Mohamed, 21, and Abdi Yemani Hussein, 20, were arrested Friday in Tucson. They have been accused by the FBI of planning to fly to Egypt to carry out terrorist attacks there on behalf of the Islamic State group, the Arizona Republicreported.
In its latest round of social media posters, the Islamic State group is calling for attacks on other targets — singling out New York City, San Francisco and London.

The messages are distributed through the Telegram networking website and were obtained by the Middle East Media Research Institute, the Washington Free Beacon reported. (MEMRI offers most of its information to subscribers.)
“The pro-Islamic State (ISIS) Ash-Shaff Media Foundation shared five posters on Telegram which threaten and encourage terror attacks in the West,” MEMRI warned, according to the Free Beacon.

“The posters are captioned in poor English and feature background images of San Francisco, New York City, and London. The Ash-Shaff media group is believed to be based in Indonesia and/or operated by Indonesians.
“Go and answer the call. Don’t spare none. Kill them all. It is now time to rise. Slit their throats. Watch them die,” one poster said.

Another poster shows a man in a suicide vest in what appears to be Manhattan. The poster urges Islamic State group followers to “slaughter them all.”

Last month, Nicaraguan officials announced that four suspected Islamic State fighters had been arrested in the Central American nation, Fox News reported.

“When the enemy holds ground like [ISIS] did in Iraq and Syria in 2014, they are a much more lethal threat than they are when they are running on a constant basis,” he said in October.
“In that regard, their lethality has been reduced, that doesn’t mean they are not dangerous.

“Perhaps the greatest challenge facing us today is the danger of complacency,” he said.
“A misreading of our progress today and a misunderstanding of the character of the threat may cause political leaders to lose focus on violent extremism while they turn to other pressing challenges,” he said.
