ISIS Threatens To Attack Rome; Italians Fight Back With A+ Online Trolling

Image VIA

After Japan took a giant dump on ISIS with their brilliant ISIS photoshop competition the other week, you’d think the Jihadis might steer clear of online shenanigans for a while. But nope — following the execution of 21 Christians in Libya recently, they’ve announced plans to wreak havoc across Rome next:

Today we are south of Rome. We will conquer Rome with Allah’s permission.

ISIS supporters are even using the hashtag #We_Are_Coming_O_Rome in an attempt to frighten everyone. Did it work though? Not quite.

Here are the funniest Tweets from the people of Rome the last couple days:
