London : Islamic State bombers are in Britain and are ready to carry out lone-wolf attacks with World War II victory commemorations involving the Queen and the royal family being among the targets, according to a media report.   Fictional characters created online by Sky News were sent terror guidebooks by senior jihadists in Syria, including advice on raising funds and making weapons.     By posing on Twitter and in chatrooms as two individuals committed to jihad — one male, one female — the British television network gained a disturbing new insight into the extremists’ tactics.  From the undercover operation it emerged that the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) already has a number of potential bombers in the UK with some of whom trained in Syria and are ready to attack. Islamic State is now focused on urging British would-be recruits to carry out “lone wolf” attacks in the UK instead of travelling to fight in Syria, the report said.
