Can peace ever reign in this world of ours? How does a parent explain certain things to a child that an adult is still grappling to understand like the Tunisian massacre, the most recent attack by ISIS?
Peace and safety seems to be elusive and expensive to possess...
The massacre on a Tunisian beach resort that left at least 39 dead followed a chilling threat from ISIS that 'Ramadan will have lots of surprises'.
ISIS
yesterday claimed responsibility for the deadly shoot out, as well as
the attacks in France, Kuwait and northern Syria in a day of terror.
The
killings came on Friday, Islam's holy day, and came after a call by the
terrorist group for attacks by 'Muslims everywhere' during Ramadan.
A spokesman
for the murderous organisation promised 'tenfold' reward in paradise
for those who targeted 'the kuffar' (unbelievers) during the holy
month.
The
attacks also come a year since ISIS announced a self-declared
caliphate, which led to a wave of barbaric killings by the group.
It also
comes at a time when ISIS has felt under pressure, having lost ground in
Syria, Iraq and most recently, Libya. This gave the group a greater
incentive to hit back and regain some momentum.
On
Tuesday, Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, the chief spokesman for ISIS, put out a
statement urging jihadists to attack western targets.
In
a chilling message, he said: 'Allah may increase the reward of a shahid
[martyr] tenfold in Ramadan in comparison to other months.
'So,
O Muslims embark and hasten towards jihad. And O mujahidin [jihadists]
everywhere, rush and move to make Ramadan a month of disaster for the
kuffar [unbelievers].'
