It was the first time ISIS claimed to have carried out an attack in the U.S.

(359 posts)I would think ISIS would not be quick to claim failure. Two armed men, attacking by surprise, and they both got put down after wounding an unarmed man. Their one victim was an unarmed school district security guard who had nothing to do with the contest.

(39,215 posts)people that if they could not make it to Iraq then they should pick a target - any target - in the country they live in. These two guys were part of that effort. They think they were successful because the hit the "any target" goal. Same with the attacks we see happening in Europe.

They practically invited them.

(24,761 posts)They're just claiming responsibility to call attention to their twisted ideology. IMO, they had nothing to do with the Texas anti-Islamic shooting.

Of course they are going to take responsibility. Even though they had nothing to do with it.
