DAMASCUS, Nov. 20 (Xinhua) -- The world could face more terror attacks as it intensifies offensive against the Islamic State (IS) group, said a Syrian political analyst.

Osama Danura, a Syrian political researcher, told Xinhua in a recent interview that with the world striking it, the IS is expected to carry out more terror attacks worldwide to compensate for its losses, adding that it is this is how they are likely to try to survive for the next phase.

However, he said their so-called "state" will not hold for too long at all, adding that the IS is retreating from being a "state" into the old style of al-Qaida.

He also said that with many of the world's major powers scaling up their attacks against the IS, the extremist group could face a real challenge of continuity.

After last week's deadly attacks in Paris that claimed the lives of more than 120 people, the French air force intensified air strikes against the IS's de facto capital of Raqqa in northeast Syria, forcing large number of families of IS commanders and fighters to flee to the Iraqi city of Mosul, which is also under the control of IS.

Isn't it time to crush this aberration once and for all. Let the A10 pilots do their jobs right along side the SU24 pilots. Get rid of these parasites on the back of humanity.
