The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), an Al-Qaida linked terrorist group which has been active in Syria’s civil war, released a video message this week demanding that residents of the restive southern Jordanian city of Ma’an rise up and overthrow the government of Israel’s eastern neighbor. “[Take up] arms! Blood for blood, destruction for destruction!,” the video exhorts. “The only solution for this criminal regime is to fight it and wage jihad against it…it is a regime of treachery, a regime of unbelief and apostasy. It is the regime that has ruled over the Muslims for dozens of years according to [laws] differing from those of the Koran and the Sunna of the Prophet. It rules them instead according to infidel man-made laws… it is a regime that battles jihad and the mujahideen in all the jihad arenas.”In a direct message to members of Jordanian military and security forces, the speaker declares, “I say to you – repent! … you are the ones who maintain the throne of this tyrannical, criminal regime…you are the ones who safeguard the Jews’ borders and prevent the youth from waging jihad there [in Israel]…with Allah’s will, we are coming for you.”
