New ISIS video shows Eiffel Tower falling over using clip stolen from 2009 GI Joe movie
Terrorist organization Islamic State has released a new video that shows the Eiffel Tower crumbling, though the footage was taken from a 2009 action movie.
In a video called ‘Paris has Collapsed’ ISIS members promise more attacks on the French capital like the one this month that killed 130 and injured hundreds.
Interspersed between scenes of French forces bombing the group in Syria and images from the November 13 is a clip of the Eiffel Tower falling.
The computer-generated clip has high production value, though it was revealed that the section of video was stolen from GI Joe: The Rise of Cobra.
The poorly-reviewed movie, starring Channing Tatum, sees a group of soldiers fight against an evil organization called Cobra that hits the French monument with a missile, releasing microscopic robots called ‘nanomites’ that destroy it.
In the ISIS video a spaceship-type plane is seen zooming under the tower as it falls.
Terrorists in the video said in a mix of French and Arabic that recent attacks are ‘only the beginning’ and promised more attacks on Paris, faulting French President Francois Hollande for his policy towards Syria.
The six-minute video released online this weekend was the latest in a number of clips that have threatened more attacks against Paris, New York and Washington DC.
It shows an Air France plane on the runway and that the French would ‘pay the price’ when they travel to other countries.
One terrorist says that future attacks will be worse than those on September 11, 2001 in the US, when more than 3000 people died.
The video shows one masked man with an assault rifle and another who showed his face.
France TV reports that the second man is Yanis Belhamra, a former pizza delivery man from the northwest Paris suburb of Bezons who now goes by Abdul Wadud
