Isis has waged war Twitter Militants threaten to behead employees for deleting accounts. Isis supporters have called on jihadists around the world to murder Twitter employees because of the social network’s crackdown on extremist accounts. An online post claiming to be from the Islamic State features a picture of co-founder Jack Dorsey in crosshairs. ‘Your virtual war on us will cause a real war on you,’ The bloodthirsty post said. Twitter employees’ necks would “become a target for the soldiers of the Caliphate” already claimed to be in their midst.
I can’t wait for Twitters or even Anonymous to reply to this threatening post. ISIS online mobility is being shut at every door and now having to post such a direct post aimed at Twitter employees they are showing it is hurting them. I think the simple fact they threaten Twitter and not Anonymous shows they want to scare the public and not fight the online presence Anonymous now has over them.

“Your virtual war on us will cause a real war on you,” it says, calling for beheadings in response to Twitter’s “campaign to delete accounts”. The network suspends any profiles that violate its terms of service, which ban threats of violence and anything furthering illegal activities. The threats were addressed to Twitter founder Jack Dorsey “You started this failed war,” the Isis post, which is in Arabic, says according to a Buzzfeed translation. “We told you from the beginning it’s not your war, but you didn’t get it and kept closing our accounts on Twitter, but we always come back.
