Local Editor

A member of the so-called "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant" [ISIL] has threatened to turn on North America after fighting in the Middle East, as was said via an online video on Sunday.
Speaking in English, the "ISIL" member said in an online video that after fighting in the Middle East, the group would turn on North America.
"This is a message to Canada and all the American tyrants: We are coming and we will destroy you..." the unidentified member said.

"I made hijra [emigration] to this land for one reason alone...," adding that, "after Syria, after Iraq, after the [Arabian] Peninsula, we are going for you, Barack Obama," the "ISIL" member said in the new video posted on Sunday, according to the SITE Intelligence Group.
Officials are concerned about the security threat posed by militants fighting abroad in Syria should they return to Canada with terrorist training, combat experience and extreme anti-Western zeal.

According to the Canadian Security Intelligence Service, about 30 Canadians have joined Syrian extremist factions like "ISIL."

A Canadian who goes by the nom de guerre Abu Turab said in an online post that there were "many bros from Canada" fighting in Syria. In another post, he said there were "maybe 100."
