ISIS Threatens Nuke Attack of Israel

Iraq invaders threaten nuke attack on Israel

WASHINGTON – The well-organized army of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, claims it has access to nuclear weapons and a will to use them to “liberate” Palestine from Israel as part of its “Islamic Spring,” according to a WND source in the region.

...

ISIS has been working with a “new specialized” unit organized at the beginning of 2013 to focus “exclusively on destroying the Zionist regime occupying Palestine.” emphasis added

I believe I have mentioned this in another thread, the last "S" in ISIS can take on three different meanings, depending on context - either Syria, Damascus, or the Levant.

Since many ME reports prefer the latter context, it is assumable that that is the intended context by ISIS itself. And that fact is clearly showing itself here, since Israel is completely within the Levant. It seems for certain that ISIS wants to make the Levant - especially and including Israel, part of a Muslim Caliphate.

Not surprising, terrorists will use them anywhere, if they ever got their hands on them , like some said who or what country do you fight if it ever came to that.Its Like one Senator said in retaliation we just would have to bomb Mecca.No desent loving Muslim would want to see that happen, wish they could get their acts together over there.

I doubt you could find a Muslim anywhere in the world (who takes their religion seriously) who DOESN'T want to take Jerusalem. As to the nukes - God forbid they should be telling the truth. I think if that happened then the capitals of every M.E. country would become glass parking lots.

Would a muslim really attack the Dome of the Rock? Think about it .....

Thinking about it.....

I once spoke about all things ME with a friend, who had traveled to the ME at one time.

I said that I didn't think that "nuclear" was really a threat because anyone who ever did that would have to know that Israel would takes its entire arsenal and empty it out on every Muslim country around them. No one would do that, right?

She said to me that I do not realize just how crazy those religious extremists are over there, they would if they could.

Interesting.

Oh I have no doubt about the insanity of extremists .... however I think they are religious extremists and therefore would have a problem with destroying the place on earth where their prophet was said to have been raised up to heaven from. It would be a crime directly against the most sacred monument they have.

ISIS really needs a name change.

I cant see it without thinking of Archer

[Thelaw1]

For everyone that worries because the U.S. is not involving itself in Iraq, Israel will take care of this.

Israel has a right to exist, (and for that matter, before we get into a debate, I believe Palestine does as well) and has a right of self-defense.

With that being said, now that ISIS has made this claim, will Iran suddenly support them? I say that in jest but I'm curious, whose hate is stronger... Sunni vs Shi'ite or Sunni vs Israel or Shi'ite vs Israel.

[LucidElement]

What is taking Isreal so long then? They need to step up their game and infiltrate. But do you think if Israel goes in U.S will assist. That could be the start to a major war?

[Thorvir]

1) They're lying. At least for now. They wouldn't be so stupid as to announce things like this before hand (well, most are that stupid, but overall, there has to be someone a bit smarter calling the shots). They're playing to the camera as a circus show of strength.

2) They can threaten Israel all they want to. Once it is confirmed that they can carry out any of their threats, Israel will roll right over them with efficiency, brutality, and finality. It's always cute to see Israeli tanks plowing through the smoking wrecks that tried to do their country harm.

And that will be the end of the ISIS. And whoever is bankrolling them.

[A rather obscure Bassoon]

Extremist band standing,because they are walking over the ragtag Iraqi army they seem to think they are invincible.

[Thelaw1]

Hida is right I believe. If a group or a country was really going to nuke another, it wouldn't openly advertise that it was going to.

[Yamato]

Without dropping names (you know who you are), since policy is all it takes to determine who's anti-Semitic, pretty much the entire world is anti-Semitic, sans the US.

[Yamato]

Extremist band standing,because they are walking over the ragtag Iraqi army they seem to think they are invincible.

Of course their morale must be sky-high. Not to mention they were outnumbered some 20:1, or 50:1. The Iraqi army we've been arming and training for 10 years is getting walked over because they're "ragtag" as compared with ISIS?

Who forgot to take a big pile of taxpayer dough and buy loyalty with it?

[RoofGardener]

Meh.... I'm not going to lose any sleep.

This sounds like architypal Arab overblown rhetoric, with a dash of deranged Islamic mouthfoamings.

I can't give ANY credence to the idea of Pakistan giving ISIS access to an atomic bomb. The Pakistani's regard their nuclear weapons as strategic deterrents against India, and they are configured for use with long-range missiles. Putting one into portable form would not be an entirely trivial task, even if Pakistan where willing to 'dilute' its deterrence capability. (it only has a handful of nukes, so every one is precious).

As for destabalising Jordan, well... good luck with THAT one. King Abdullah has proven rather popular of late, and the Nation itself remarkably stable. Despite the best efforts of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Arab Spring uprisings left Jordan relatively unscathed. Whilst it IS a Sunni country, it is also relatively well-off, and with a strong national identity: hardly fertile soil for ISIS to plant the seeds of insurrection, as they did in Northern Iraq.

In addition, the Jordanian armed services are professional, highly trained, well equipped, and loyal ! They have an expanded Special Forces group specialising in desert warfare and counter-insurgency, backed by hundreds of tanks, self-propelled artillary, APC's. They've got a reasonably modern air force (F16's), good intelligence gathering/analysis.... the list goes on.

If ISIS tries to intervene in Jordan, I believe it will be entering a mincing machine.

[Lilly]

Honestly, if these ISIS guys were to 'nuke' anyone it would be their last act on this Earth.

[RoofGardener]

Actually, they may have just shot themselves ... or rather, the Palestinians .. in the foot.

When these nutters shout out their bloodthirsty, threatening mouthfoamings, they often don't seem to understand that the West actually LISTENS to their words (which is more than they do themselves), and react accordingly.

Hence, a threat of Nuclear weapons has been made against Israel. One method of using such a weapon would be to smuggle it into Israel. Hence Israel now has carte-blanche to tighten up border checks (including coastal interceptions) to include neutron scanners etc etc. The life of the Palestinians transiting the border each day just got harder, and all because some ISIS idiot couldn't RESIST shooting his mouth off.

Well done chaps !

[libstaK]

This story has been floating around for well over 12 hours now and yet ... not one single mainstream news outlet is running it. The folks that are running are the likes of:

TribulationNow

DailyStormer

godlikeproductions

endtimeheadlines

Nuff said?

This is hyperbole and has no credible source.

[RoofGardener]

Hmmm... this Franklin Lamb character appears to be the genuine article ?

I dunno... I find his quotes credible, albeit unsubstantiated.

[Sir Smoke aLot]

They don't have brains at all. I doubt that they have nuclear weapons but what i am afraid of is that possibly you can buy damn nuke if you have enough money and this group does have money ( robbed so many countries and Iraq banks too lately ). Can we say that no one who owns them nukes would sell them?

Anyway - no brains because nuclear strike at that area would contaminate extremely large territory.

[Thorvir]

The ISIS might have a tougher time when they more into more tightly-controlled Shia areas of Iraq. Part of their initial success stems from the fact that their opponents were Sunni and, aside from being poorly trained and commanded, sympathized with the ISIS. The Shia will be more motivated than the others, if not any better trained. Remember, ISIS don't have much training, either, they're relying on shock and the unwillingness of their victims to fight back. Of course, the Iranians will meddle as much as they can, as well. That's only going to serve to make this bloodier when the Shia parts of Iraq begin to fight back.

But, again, as for threatening Israel...that can only hurt them, not help them. A very unwise move on their part. Sometimes you don't always want the attention you think you need.

It won't contaminate that large of an area--depending on the bomb to be used; and they won't be getting their hands on anything truly big as they don't need to. Besides, if they are fanatical enough, they will not care. As long as their perceived enemies suffer, nothing else matters. If anything, Jerusalem won't be the target of a nuclear attack; Tel Aviv will be the primary target. These Islamists, like all of their ilk, want Jerusalem, it's the jewel and taking it they can claim some sort of religious victory. They don't want it destroyed.

Again, all depending on the mental stability of the bad guys involved. They haven't shown much strategic sense by announcing their intentions, real or not.

I also doubt Pakistan will sell nuclear weapons to any terrorist group, at least not at this time. Too much of a chance that it will be used against them instead of against Israel. Besides, if it can be proven Pakistan did provide the weapon, their little toy country is forfeit and they know it.

I guess your are right about it all and i just have to add that those guys from ISIS, with the money the own, could buy those nukes from anywhere in the world, only thing needed is corrupted idiot which is not so rare this days so if we rule Pakistan out of equation, we still have sources left. That is what i am afraid of and also, any kind of nuclear strike in that area will just be a strike against innocent civilians. Actually, anywhere in the world it would be just strike against civilians and its hard for me to believe that whole Mediterranean would feel it. Since WW2 those nukes have become much more powerful.

Yeah, I concur. Innocents are always going to be hurt when it comes to Islamic terror. And any sort of nuke, whether it is a small, tactical one, or a big city-stomping one, isn't a good thing for those kinds of monsters to have.

[+and-then]

Imagine this story in a few years when Iran decides it needs a nuke capability. Instead of just blowing it off as hyperbole it will have to be treated seriously - calling for steps that might actually create more unrest and violence. Nevermind that Iran would probably never give or sell one to any group because they'd KNOW it would be the end of their rule.

Yes it would be a crime against Allah.

So would committing genocide with a nuclear bomb.
