As police in Manchester report an arrest of a suspect in last night’s deadly bombing that killed 22 at an Ariana Grande concert, supporters of the self-proclaimed Islamic State terror group cheered the bombing.
They are calling for more attacks on social media, ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attack, supporters of the militants used their Twitter accounts to praise the blast saying it was retaliation for Western airstrikes in Iraq and Syria.
Using the trending #ArianaGrande and #Manchester hashtags, they posted ISIS propaganda materials and called for similar attacks to be carried out elsewhere, using the slogans,
“Kill Them Wherever You Find Them” and “Kill Them Everywhere.”
Combat the hate with love, that’s what we all can do.
