I was just reading that Jihadists are recruiting people in our prisons. We can't do anything about Jihadists already in jails for some crime, but the authorities can really investigate to see that the Imams allowed in our jails are not extremists.

We can expect to see ISIS responding to such losses on the battlefield in a number of ways. One that we are already witnessing is a surge of ISIS activity in other parts of the region; in Yemen, in the Sinai, and particularly in Libya. But we should also expect to see ISIS and its supporters channeling their energies into direct attacks against the West.

The will to target the West had always been there and the gradual rise in ISIS-linked terror plots against Westerners is there to prove it.
A recent and particularly disturbing indication of ISIS’s obsessional hatred of the Western world came in the form of a new propaganda video released by the group on Sunday. Along with the standard obscene footage of murder dressed up as execution that we’ve come to expect from these videos, came the chillingly familiar sound of an ISIS narrator speaking with a British accent. It is now the nature of the war that we are in that the masked ISIS propagandist in the video who derided David Cameron and promised retribution against the British people for the UK’s recent decision to bomb ISIS in Syria, should himself evidently be British.
