Islamic State planning ‘Mumbai-style’ attacks in Europe: Europol

117-c-13-(Lori Hinnant (HIH’-nihnt), AP correspondent)-“ahead of time”-AP correspondent Lori Hinnant reports the Islamic State group video reveals a lot about the November 13 attacks in Paris”.

Among the messages, are ones from Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the Paris attacks’ alleged ringleader, Bilal Hadfi, who blew himself up outside France’s national stadium, and Samy Amimour, who blew himself up outside the Bataclan.

The tape then shows the faces and names of nine people ISIS claims carried out the attacks in Paris.

Mr Wainwright was unveiling the findings of a Europol report on changes in how the militant group operates at the launch of the agency’s new counterterrorism centre in The Hague.

The video includes footage of British Prime Minister David Cameron giving a speech, with a warning from the Islamic State that whoever stands with the unbelievers “will be a target for our swords”.

Law enforcers across Europe already noted one of the great failures in preventing the attacks in Paris last November, that saw 130 people killed in multiple attacks across the French capital, was a lack of intelligence sharing. “Our ambition is for the European Counter Terrorism Centre to become a central information hub in the fight against terrorism in the EU, providing analysis for ongoing investigations and contributing to a coordinated reaction in the event of major terrorist attacks”, Mr Wainwright said.

According to CNN, the Europol report, compiled in the wake of the November 13 Paris terror attacks, warned that ISIS may attack France and other countries in the European Union in the “near future”.

“For foreign fighters, the religious component in recruitment and radicalization is being replaced by more social elements such as peer pressure and role modeling”, it said. All nine attackers are believed to be dead.

It was assembled from material shot before the men left for Paris, news video and amateur video.

It is not immediately clear where it was filmed, but the Raqqa Is Being Slaughtered Silently activist group has said at least three of the attackers were trained in the IS-controlled city in Syria.

It remains unclear why the Islamic State group would release the footage two months after the attacks took place.

Four suspects remain at large, including Salah Abdeslam, who was present on the night but whose role remains uncertain, as well as Mohamed Abrini, suspected of having helped scout out targets. “But I don’t think that here, people I know in this neighborhood, Parisians as a whole are not really afraid”.
