Jihadist social media accounts have been ablaze with incitement and celebration of the California wildfires. In one such case, a pro-ISIS jihadist TikTok account posted a graphic showing a man carrying a firebomb against the red backdrop with a wildfire burning.
NEWSMAX -- The fires have burned more than 40,000 acres.
The graphic shows Arabic writing that roughly translates into English as “The time is now.” The following scene shows a burned-out section of Los Angeles with lyrics that say in Arabic, “O what victory for whoever gains martyrdom honestly, his sins will be wiped away as his blood spills and the flowers are perfumed by its scent, and his wounds will smell like musk.”
Islamic terrorists typically post songs called nasheeds that are paired with images of violent acts on social media. They often serve as a sign for sleeper cells to go into action. This was the case prior to the ISIS attacks in France a decade ago.
