Hapless Islamic State militants have vowed online to take over Rome - and 'throw homosexuals off the leaning tower of pizza'.
In the message, posted by a Twitter account linked to the terror group, the ISIS supporter also threatens to bring sharia law to the Italian capital.
It comes just days after masked jihadists warned of their intention to conquer the city in a video that showed the mass beheading of 21 Christians in Libya.
But rather than spark widespread panic, the threats have triggered a flood of mocking responses - with dozens taking to social media to make fun of the jihadists and their takeover plans.

I find the OP rather tiresome, but of course he's free to post what he wants; however, if Italians aren't panicking in fear over ISIS, why the hell should I?

I know my family, so...
You post thinly veiled hostile material against Muslims and then post stupid responses like the one above.

(11,794 posts)You post thinly veiled, hostile OPs. Constantly. But the last ten OPS have been about ISIS. So fair enough. They're a pretty hateful group worthy of scorn. I'll edit my other comment.

(11,794 posts)I find the OP tiresome, his links to Daily Mail articles comical. But I appreciate your defense down thread. My mockery of "pizza" has zero to do with ISIS victims and everything to do with the stunning ignorance of the original ISIS tweet.

(5,169 posts)How many other people want Pepperoni, mushrooms, banana peppers, and tomatoes at the same time you do?
"Let's get Hawaiian! I love ham and pineapple"
"Meat is murder! Broccoli and feta cheese on a thin crust"
"I'm not eating a freaking rabbit pizza! Sausage, bacon, and ground beef"
"Can't we just all get along and order a BBQ chicken deep dish?"
"We gotta go to Green Lantern, Buddy's, or at least order from Jet's. Julius won't eat Hungry Howies"

(34,845 posts)But hey, if we find out what type of pizza ISIS prefers, we can order that and I'll happily chow down with them so long as they agree to not kill me.
Unless they insist on anchovies, then...d'oh! I see what you mean!

(39,215 posts)predicted that Rome was next to last on their agenda and Damascus was the final stop. So far what she has said has proved true.
She did not mention homosexuals. That is just another group they are using to recruit their army. If they keep it up they will have the rw joining them.

It's like watching a genre movie, everything is telegraphed in advance, and you can get a pretty good feeling about how things are going to play out.
