"The eight knights brought Paris down on its knees, after years of French conceit in the face of Islam. A nationwide state of emergency was declared as a result of the actions of eight men armed only with assault rifles and explosive belts."

Eight knights = 騎手の八人。Now if you look at 騎 it is 大 and 馬 and 可. 大 (馬可) 馬! Japanese is the last language you would expect to have the true identity of the ISIS master encoded in. That's the thing with psychopaths and secret operatives like the Scarlet Pimpernel. They have to leave their mark. They secretly want to be found out.

ONLY assault rifles and explosive belts?
ONLY?!
Last i checked assault rifles and explosive belts ARE pretty terrifying on the basis that they are deadly weapon on a scale of bullets that go through several people and fired at one or two a second for 20 seconds. Maybe trying to undersell the attacks so the attackers dont get off on the fact that the attacks worked - the french are in a state of terror and with good reason. Just a bit insulting to read 'only'.

Okay...this is fascinating to the max! Please explain.

I'm going to go with it's decadent language that harks back to the middle ages.
i.e. The knights of the holy crusade went into the middle east and conquered much Islamic land back in the middle ages. ISIS has also referred to Russia directly as crusaders when it threatens them.
I think ISIS are actually that dumb that they think they are still in the middle ages.
This nonsense about bringing Paris to it's knees is also a laughable lie. Their attack was clumsy and pointless, because it has only enraged the people of France and steeled their resolve against ISIS.
Fans defiantly sing national anthem after terror attaacks
