米国は、国際世論の潮目が変わったので対応を変えてきているように見える。
ISISが公表した残酷なビデオにしばしば登場した英国出身のテロリストMohammed Emwaziが、2015/11/12の米国によるドローンを用いた攻撃によって殺害された模様。攻撃目標となった集会には英語を話す他のテロリストもいた可能性。

The United States military has ramped up its offensives against the Daesh (ISIL) terrorist group in Syria, taking out scores of militant trucks during an aerial raid in the Arab country’s east, according to the New York Times.
The US daily said Monday that American warplanes for the first time attacked hundreds of ISIL trucks earlier in the day that the extremist group has been using to smuggle the crude oil it has been producing in Syria.
Citing US officials, the NYTimes said an initial assessment showed 116 trucks were destroyed in the attack, which took place near Deir al-Zour, an area controlled by Daesh militants close to Syria’s eastern border with Iraq.
The airstrikes were carried out by four A-10 attack planes and two AC-130 gunships based in Turkey, the paper added.
It said plans for the strike were developed well before the terrorist attacks in and around France’s capital city on Friday, and that the assault is part of a broader operation to disrupt ISIL’s ability to fund its terror offensives.
Daesh is said to generate as much as $40 million a month by producing and exporting oil it steals from the areas under its control.
The report said until Monday, the United States had refrained from striking the ISIL oil fleet, which is estimated to include more than 1,000 tanker trucks, because of concerns about causing civilian casualties.
It noted that the new campaign is called ‘Tidal Wave II,’ named after the World War II effort to counter Nazi Germany by striking Romania’s oil industry.
According to the New York Times, which cited an unnamed US military official, a number of tactics were used to reduce the risk of harming civilians. Two F-15s dropped leaflets about an hour before the attack warning drivers to abandon their vehicles.
The area where the trucks assembled in Syria has been closely monitored by US reconnaissance drones. As many as 1,000 trucks have been observed there, waiting to receive their cargo of illicit oil, the report said, adding that at the time of the attack, 295 trucks were in the area, and more than one-third of them were destroyed.

ISIS video threatens attack on Washington, warns countries taking part in Syria airstrikes
A new Islamic State video has warned that countries taking part in Syria airstrikes will suffer the same fate as France, which was hit with multiple attacks on Friday. It specifically threatens an attack on Washington.
A man in the video states that just as the center of France was hit by terror attacks on Friday, the US capital of Washington DC will suffer the same outcome at the hands of Islamic State.
It was not immediately possible to verify the authenticity of the video, Reuters reported.
