I was watching CNN and I saw a breaking news report about ISIS releasing a video "threatening" NYC by showing suicide bombers "preparing for attacks".

The video starts off by showing terrorists making bombs, getting dressed, then a man going into the city with a grenade and pulling it and then the camera gets cut to black.

Words flash on the screen:  “And what’s coming next will be far worse and more bitter.”

The video of the threat by ISIS: http://nypost.com/2015/11/18/isis-threatens-nyc-in-new-propaganda-video/

Should We Be Worried?

Is it just me or does this seem too professional to be made by ISIS?

It's just you. Americans and other westerners that know how to use western computer equipment attempt to join ISIS all the time. Some of them succeed.

It doesn't take this video to worry me, ISIS has worried me for a while. French RAID forces and terrorists clash in Paris neighborhood, the gun fire and explosions compromised the safety of the structure, more than 5,000 rounds used: http://foxtrotalpha.jalopnik.com/beloved-french-police-dog-killed-five-officers-injured-1743306984

Maybe. They still can't tie it to anything credible according to the article. Some of the footage has also been used in previous videos, apparently. I don't make a habit of watching terrorist propaganda videos.

ISIS would threaten everyone and their grandmother if they had the time to spare after being vaporized by Russian bombs.

It would be truly idiotic for them to announce their next target. More than likely the US intelligence services have eyes on anyone who could pull something like this and releasing a video beforehand would attract a lot of unwanted attention. They are probably blowing smoke in our eyes and it's a distraction for their next real attack which I believe would take place in the EU or Russia. But let's hope they'll never get to put their plans into action. I didn't get to live the communist era but damn if I wouldn't sleep better knowing that the some neo-Securitate/NKVD/Stasi etc is always searching our drawers and everyone spies on everyone.

no on the contrary they want people to be terrified. it only make them more feared and more powerful.

There was an attack in Mali. It's was a different terrorist group, but still backed by Islamic values of martyrdom and killing westerners.

Show them that were getting worried and were getting scared just gives them power, Sure I was a little worried when sh**t hit the fan in Paris but just running to the internet (facebook twitter etc) will just give them more power. So dont go running to internet posting how worried you are. All it does is get them power.
