Libya: ISIS claims it bombed Iran envoy's residence
 [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] The Islamic State...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) krazed killer group said it carried out a double bombing that targeted the empty residence of Iran's ambassador to Libya on Sunday. A security official said no one was hurt in the latest attack on a diplomatic mission in Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... , where most embassies have been shut since summer 2014 as rival militias battle for control of the city. One device went kaboom!outside the security gate and a second was lobbed into the grounds, a security front man in Tripoli, Issam al-Naass, told AFP. Another security source said no one was maimed as "the building was empty and the guard was not at his post at the time of the attack". The jihadist group grabbed credit for the bombings in a statement on Twitter, saying "soldiers of the caliphate (ISIS) launched a double attack on the Iranian embassy in Tripoli with explosives."
