In ‘unprecedented’ hiatus, IS media offline for a day |
2017-11-24 |
[IsraelTimes] 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.... group’s online propaganda channels went mysteriously quiet for more than a full day between Wednesday and Thursday, in what analysts say was an "unprecedented" silence. IS, which uses messaging application Telegram to broadcast daily updates on military operations and claims of attacks, published nothing between 0900 GMT on Wednesday and 1001 GMT on Thursday. Charlie Winter, senior research fellow at the International Centre for the Study of Radicalisation and Political Violence, calls the silence "unprecedented." IS’s Telegram channels usually post more than a dozen messages each day, ranging from multilingual radio broadcasts on battlefield achievements to pictures of civilian life in the group’s self-styled "caliphate." |
