ISIS supporters are euphoric over their successful terror attacks in Brusselsand have already started predicting where the group will find its next victims, Vocativ has discovered.
A poll published on al-Minbar, a main forum used by the groups supporters, asks: What will be the color of the Eiffel Tower in the next attacks? The question comes after the iconic French landmark was illuminated with the colors of the Belgian flag on Tuesday to pay tribute to the victims of the Brussels attacks, which killed more than 30 people and injured more than 100 others.

Twenty users replied to the poll, often casting multiple votes. Nine said the next target will be the United Kingdom, six voted for Russia, three predicted the U.S. will be targeted next and four others voted for Germany. ISIS loyalists who posted on the polls forum thread described the U.S., the U.K. and France as the heads of infidelity, followed by Germany.
A second poll asking ISIS supporters what country they think will be targeted next also appeared on Twitter, where an ISIS supporters asked: What will be the next attack by the Islamic State? The poll offered Italy, France, The Netherlands and Belgium as options, and had a total of 103 responses. The results were only available to voters.

the next time they kill a leader of Daesh they're going to illuminate the tower in the blue, white and red of the French flag while blaring the Marseillaise from loud-speakers.
We may be hawkish as a nation...but nobody knows how to say "Go fuck yourself!" like the French. (En Francais: Va te faire foutre!)
