Islamic State reconizes Taiwan in new propaganda video

First I read this news on Chinese internet newspaper in traditional Mandarin characters. I was shock that Taiwanese flag is among 60 flags (Taiwan flag next to U.S. flag) on ISIS propaganda. China flag is NOT on it. So, I Google it and found the photo and an article wrote by Neelabh Chaturvedi in English. I copy and paste it to show you. I am NOT the author of this article. I came from Taiwan 35 & 1/2 yrs ago, I care about Taiwan. I don't like ISIS included Taiwan flag on their propaganda.

The Islamic State has already attracted an angry response from China after it executed a Chinese captive last week. Now the militant group, known as IS or ISIS, could rile Beijing again, this time by recognizing Taiwan as an independent nation.

In its latest propaganda video, ISIS lists the flags of countries it says are part of a global coalition against it. Among these is the Taiwanese flag. All the other flags are of sovereign nations.

Taiwan's Central News Agency linked ISIS's sudden recognition of Taiwan to a statement made by U.S. President Barack Obama at an Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit in Malaysia last week. Obama said that Taiwan was one of the Asia-Pacific countries in a coalition against ISIS.

The Hong Kong Standard reported that SWAT teams were patrolling the Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport on Thursday after video prompted the Taiwanese government to step up security measures. Meanwhile, President Ma Ying-jeou urged the public not to panic.

Here is a screenshot from the video, which was posted on Wednesday, Nov 25.

    Quoting  :

I don't like ISIS or ISIL. They are bunch of brutal killers. They don't have brains. They are animals.

It is a bad news. That is why President of Taiwan, Ma Ying-Jeou urged the public NOT to panic. We don't want to attract ISIS attention. ISIS is all the human's evil enemy.
