At least nine people are now reported dead. Apparently some of the gunmen involved blew themselves up and the dead include a French and a US citizen. Another Islamic State attack, which was confirmed on one of their Twitter accounts. The BBC have reported that the hotel concerned received a threat a few days ago, advising staff to evacuate the building.

How long is this organization going to be allowed to wreak terror on the world?

So the incident already happened before the police or the armed forces arrived at the scene? The hotel management should have taken the threats seriously. It's too late to blame, I know, but the outcome would have been different had they told everyone to evacuate. Never mind the reputation. All that will be restored in the future. Business does not stand a chance against terrorism.

The jihadists apparently are starting to step up their retaliations for losing numerous of their fighters when the U.S and other nations decided to deal with the terrorists. Others in other nations, wherever an ISIS fighter might be found should be on high alert else a lot of tourists will be killed by suicide bombers.

I think right now it's not safe for tourists to travel to N. Africa or the Middle East because jihadis can easily blend in with the natives and . . .
