Press Release
The Publicity Campaigns done by ISIS Feed the Anti-Islam Politics in the West
(Translated)

In the Belgium city Anvers, an ISIS member called Abdullah Nomani, age 20, threatened the Belgium people, but this threat was conveyed by the terrorist expert Muntasir Youssef Ali Ad-Da’me who claimed that Nomani informed him of the threat. According to Ad-Da’ma, the threat included libraries, schools, hospitals, malls, and cinemas, and informed him that there’s no way to talk about it now as it’s late and that the coming days, weeks, months, or years will witness doings which will destroy your beds to the streets, in your homes, and even in your bedrooms, and that the brothers in ISIS will do whatever it takes to terrorize the nonbelievers (Kuffar) as they are very close to reaching Europe.

The invitation to kill innocent people is an uncanny invitation that is extremely forbidden in Islam, and a person would wonder about the reasons that made Muntasir Ad-Da’ma mention that An-Nomani was speaking in the name of the group such as ISIS? There is a very slight chance that there is someone in Belgium speaking in the name of the group such as ISIS, and similar cases have occurred before where it showed later on that whoever is doing this is merely an enthusiastic young man. Even if this person did really speak in the name of ISIS and made the threat, which is by no doubt the style of ISIS aiming to strike terror and fear in the hearts of the people, will this threat be taken seriously by the officials?

Will the Belgium government deal with this threat seriously, even though this threat and others do not mean that it is a real threat, it is most likely that the goal behind this threat is just to strike terror among the people. That is why it is no wise for the government to identify the level of the threat, its effect on the society, and raise the level of readiness based on uncertain news.

Threatening to attack the vital areas in Belgium, if it happens, would definitely result in striking terror among the people and nurturing the atmosphere of hatred between Muslims and non-Muslims and causing tense relationships between them. Therefore, the government could not announce ISIS’s threat publically, and it is not wise to pure oil on fire, such a thing will lead to strengthening the anti-Islam politics and marketing for ISIS.

Finally, ISIS’s threats, in addition to exploiting these threats by Western media, will reflect negatively upon the Muslim migrant community in this country and it will be the one paying the price.
