Subject(s): Online resources: In: Counter Terrorist Trends and Analysis Counter Terrorist Trends and Analysis -- Vol. 9 No. 2 (Feb 2017) p. 10-13Summary: 2016 saw at least eight attacks inspired or directed by the ‘Islamic State’ terrorist group that left hundreds dead and injured in Europe. 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.

2016 saw at least eight attacks inspired or
directed by the ‘Islamic State’ terrorist group that
left hundreds dead and injured in Europe. 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.
