ISIS Loyalists Gloat Over Paris Attacks With “Paris On Fire” Memes
ISIS supporters published more than a dozen photoshopped images depicting scenes of destruction and vowing more bloodshed
Just moments after the first horrifying details emerged of the deadly terror attacks in Paris, ISIS adherents began celebrating across social media. Now, as the world continues to grieve with France, extremists aligned with the Islamic State are gloating by creating a series of violent and disturbing memes, which Vocativ discovered using our deep web technology.
Jihadi sympathizers flooded Twitter and ISIS-affiliated forums Sunday with more than a dozen photoshopped images that depict the Eiffel Tower engulfed in flames and ISIS militants towering over scenes of mayhem and destruction. Vile messages accompany each of the sensational pictures.
The memes appeared online as a manhunt unfurled across Europe for one of the suspected assailants, who authorities believe fled Paris Friday night after taking part in a coordinated series of attacks that left at least 129 dead and hundreds more wounded.
