SINONE, Iraq — The Islamic State claimed responsibility on Saturday for the catastrophic attacks in the French capital, calling them “the first of the storm” and mocking France as a “capital of prostitution and obscenity,” according to statements released in multiple languages on one of the terror group’s encrypted messaging accounts.The remarks came in a communiqué published in Arabic, English and French on the Islamic State’s Telegram account and then distributed via their supporters on Twitter, according to a transcript provided by the SITE Intelligence Group, which tracks jihadist propaganda.
An earlier statement was released but was deemed unlikely to be authentic because of anomalies in the language used, as well as an error in a date provided, according to experts on jihadist propaganda.
The statement was released on the same Telegram channel that was used to claim responsibility for the crash of a Russian jet over the Sinai Peninsula two weeks ago, killing 224 people. As in that case, it made the announcement in multiple languages and audio recordings.
President François Hollande of France said on Saturday that the Islamic State was responsible Analysts said that the nature of the attacks was more in keeping with actions of the Islamic State than with those of Al Qaeda, and the timing and extent of the celebration expressed online by the group’s supporters added weight to the claim.
“Eight brothers, wrapped in explosive belts and armed with machine rifles, targeted sites that were accurately chosen in the heart of the capital of France,” the group said in the statement, “including the Stade de France during the match between the Crusader German and French teams, where the fool of France, François Hollande, was present.”
“Let France and those who walk in its path know that they will remain on the top of the list of targets of the Islamic State,” the statement added, referring to the attacks at the Bataclan concert hall and several districts in Paris.
The style of the attack was in line with the Islamic State’s tactic of indiscriminate killings and goes against Al Qaeda’s guidelines. In a 2013 directive, the leader of Al Qaeda, Ayman al-Zawahri, stated that Qaeda operatives should avoid attacks that could inadvertently cause the death of Muslim civilians and noncombatant women or children.
He argued that targeting markets, for example, was unadvisable because innocent Muslims might accidentally be killed.
Although Qaeda branches have deviated from these guidelines on numerous occasions, their attacks reflect more carefully defined targeting, as was the case in the killings at the Charlie Hebdo office in Paris in January, when cartoonists were singled out and defined as legitimate targets because of what the group considered to be blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad.
A Dutch fighter for Al Qaeda’s branch in Syria commented on the distinction in a series of posts on Twitter.
“Al-Qaeda focuses mostly on political & military targets instead of civilians. That’s why this could be an IS attack,” wrote the fighter, who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Saeed Al-Halabi.
In addition to the claim of responsibility, the celebrations by Islamic State supporters online were such that the SITE monitoring group, said it could suggest the Islamic State’s’s involvement.
“The extent of the celebration far exceeded past online rallying by I.S. supporters,” SITE said in an analysis. “The way I.S. supporters have embraced this attack appears much more coordinated at a much earlier stage than massive reactions to past attacks.”
FIRST OF THE STORM? Well, ISIS, we Americans have 0bama! He beat you to it.

I have no problems welcoming peaceful Syrian refugees who are fleeing ISIS terrorism. It is the Christian thing to do.... If your heart is so full of partisan political hatred that you cannot distinguish between ISIS and those who flee ISIS's evil, then you are no better than ISIS.
It's nice to know you have the ability to distinguish between good and bad Muslims. By the way, Muslims hate atheists far more than Christians. Also, who are you, an atheist, to lecture Christians?
"A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.” ― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

You "caved in" to the paranoid fringe whack jobs of the sheep-left when you supported removing a flag because the paranoid whack jobs blamed a flag for the deaths of nine people by a nut.
You have no credibility.

Since they are killings Christians indiscriminately, torturing them, torturing and killings their children in front of them, etc., it's really hard to see how.
Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president

"Don't throw your pearls to swine"
Which is what these Islamicists are, and is kind of ironic when you think about about it.

There is no distinction. Both are creations of Islam and the latter has allowed the former to not only exist but flourish. Christian charity is not a suicide pact.

But not what its means, pagan. The Christian God does not command, much less expect, His faithful not to defend themslef from madmen out to cut off their childrens' head. Quite the contrary, the CHristian God expects His faithful to eliminate the vermon from the face of the Earth.

Ever delusional, eh, Willie Boy?
My brother over, my cousin, my cousin over my friend, my friend over a stranger. To Muslims everyone else are strangers. With rare exception, they will never lift a finger against the Islamic radical fanatics, even in defense of themslef. They never have and they never will purge the disease within their religion.

Do they have to put-up with Mormon & Jehova Witnesses knocking on their doors also?

You clearly are ignorant of Islamic theology.

Likewise, cannibals look like other men, but they have a theology, which produces a behavior that almost certainly will cause your undoing.

Hey there Comrade Willie.
How'come America's founders prohibited state-establishments like ISIS (and your beloved Mother USSR) in their 1st Amendment?

"My Dog He Is An Ugly Dog"
My dog, he is an ugly dog He’s put together all wrong His legs are much too long.
My dog, he is a scruffy dog He’s missing clumps of hair His face is quite ridiculous His tail is scarcely there.
My dog, he is a dingy dog His fur is full of fleas He sometimes smells like dirty socks He sometimes smell like cheese.
My dog, he is a noisy dog He’s hardly ever still He barks at almost anything His voice is loud and shrill
My dog, he is a stupid dog His mind is slow and thick He’s never learned to catch a ball He cannot fetch a stick.
My dog, he is a greedy dog He eats enough for three His belly bulges to the ground He is the dog for me.

It's their way of propping themselves up emotionally, the truth is not many of them even have a mirror in the house. Their families have disowned them the neighbors throw trash over the fence into their yards and the cops have put tickets on their windshields for parking too far away from the curbs. (Even though the car is parked in the driveway).
They are more commonly known as "Mean People"...
