Forums - Politics Discussion - ISIS making advances in Egypt

Isis has previously launched several bloody attacks on the Egyptian army in the north-eastern part of the peninsula – most notably this January and last October. But after those assaults, Isis quickly retreated – whereas after Wednesday’s attack the group appeared to try to advance.

Asked by the Guardian about the situation in Sheikh Zuwaid, an army spokesman would not comment.

A health official at a local hospital said his colleagues had treated at least 30 civilian casualties. He added that survivors had described the scene as a full-scale battle. Militants were “firing weapons from the rooftops,” the source said. “We’re hearing that it’s street warfare.”

I am speechless. These guys are spreading like fire EVERYWHERE. It's only a matter of time before they get to attack Europe on a regular basis.

You should look at their 5-year plan. Imagine if they were successful.

But seriously, that's pretty worrying.
