The poster, shared online, followed warnings of further terrorist atrocities just days before the rampage.
Al-Qaeda published a press release calling for 'jihad' or a 'holy war' over newspaper Charlie Hebdo's cartoons of the Propet Mohammed.
SITE director Rita Katz said it was "hard to recall social media celebration this massive for terrorism" with jihadists taking to Twitter after the latest murders.
Tensions have been high between France and various Muslim countries following the beheading of Samuel Paty after showing Prophet Mohammed cartoons in his classroom.
Katz said that jihadists were celebrating the attackers' "freedom of action" following the recent decapitations and stabbings across France.
A beheaded woman was among three killed by a Tunisian migrant in a bloody rampage in a church in Nice - as France was rocked by two 'terror' attacks in one day.
Police sources named the suspect in the Nice attack as Brahim Aoussaoui, a 21-year-old Tunisian who had arrived in Europe just weeks ago and has been pictured for the first time.
CHURCH SLAUGHTER
France's state prosecutor said tonight that the killer used a 12-inch knife to slaughter three church-goers and is in hospital with serious injuries after being shot by cops.
He landed in late September on the Italian island of Lampedusa, where he was placed in virus quarantine by authorities, before arriving in France this month.
The first victim in the Nice attack has since been named as Vincent Loquès, who is understood to have been the church warden.
Loquès, a dad-of-two, was the building's 54-year-old sacristan, an officer charged with taking care of the church.
Also, a security guard at the French Consulate in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, was stabbed as anti-France sentiment rages across many Muslim nations.
Macron denounced the Nice bloodbath as an "Islamic terror attack" and defiantly said the nation would not "give up on our values".
The president announced up to 7,000 soldiers will be deployed to the streets across France in the wake of the violence to protect landmarks, schools and places of worships.
Meanwhile, leaders in Muslim countries have shown their outrage with France and President Macron.
Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has accused Europe of treating Muslims like how the Nazis "lynched" Jews following the Mohammed cartoon row.
He has also called for a boycott of French goods, called European leaders "fascists," and said Muslims are "now subjected to a lynch campaign similar to that against Jews in Europe before World War II."
The attack comes after he verbally bashed French President Emmanuel Macron over his tough stance on Islamic extremism following the beheading of Samuel Paty.
