Other than claiming responsibility for these attacks, IS also heightened its rhetoric on hijra (emigration) to its controlled territories and wilayats (provinces). These attacks were intended to deliver two important messages: to draw attention to IS operational capabilities, and to encourage European Muslims to emigrate to IS distant wilayats in the wake of public outrage over IS-claimed off-shore attacks. Given the resultant anti-Muslim backlash, it is imperative that states formulate and review mechanisms to strengthen social cohesion and inter-religious relations UR - http://www.css.ethz.ch/content/dam/ethz/special-interest/gess/cis/center-for-securities-studies/resources/docs/RSIS-CTTA-February-2017.pdf ER -
