Isis attacks Iran's parliament. Kills 12

ISIS claimed responsibility for a pair of Wednesday attacks in Tehran in which suicide bombers and teams of gunmen stormed Iran's parliament and the nearby shrine of Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, killing at least 12 and injuring dozens of others. This is the first attack orchestrated by ISIS in the Islamic Republic, SITE Intel Group reported. It wasn't initially clear if the death count, reported by state broadcaster IRIB, included the attackers. In a rare and stunning move, ISIS released video from inside the parliament building while the attack was under way. The video, circulated online, shows a gunman and a bloody, lifeless body of a man lying on the ground next to a desk. A voice on the video praises God and says in Arabic: "Do you think we will leave? We will remain, God willing." Another voice repeats the same words. The two appeared to be parroting a slogan used by IS spokesman Abu Mohammad al-Adnani, who was killed in Syria last year.

This could be a minor worm turn to an Islamic state like Iran/others. Hope they take it seriously and reverse the jihad whip.

Iran will not frick around with them. Heads will be cut off.

This may end up being a big deal.

All they need is an apology, statue removals, and good jobs. Then the killing would stop.

I give it 5 years before that region plunges into war. A war that will pull the entire world into it.

Is this a first? I'm no expert on the region, but I always thought they opted to not frick with this area.

I mean, Iran is fighting ISIS currently in Iraq and Syria through proxies. I guess it was only a matter of time before something like this happened.

Iran doubling up on their backing of Russia in Syria has pissed them off a bit more I wild guess.

Anyone changing their Facebook profile pic to the Iranian flag?

It's more like Saudi Arabia funding ISIS to remove the Shiite government in Syria caused Iran to support the Assad regime.

So the CIA is now doing in Iran what it did in Syria....
