Maybe these guys are a little over their heads taking on both the West, and now Russia......


'This message is addressed to you, oh Putin':
ISIS now threatens Russia over its ties to Syria's Assad and promises to 'liberate Chechnya and all the Caucasus'
  • Vladimir Putin was threatened because of close ties to Bashar al-Assad
  • In video, ISIS rebel sits in cockpit of captured Russian-made fighter jet
  • Second fighter warns Putin that his 'throne is in danger and will collapse'
  • Added: 'With permission of Allah we will liberate Chechnya and Caucasus'
  • It puts Putin on same side as the West in holding back Muslim extremism
  • At same time, Krelim leader remains at loggerheads with U.S. and Europe
Vladimir Putin was today directly and personally threatened by the Islamic State because of his close ties to Syrian leader Bashar Hafez al-Assad.
The chilling warning, delivered by a member of the terror group, puts the Kremlim leader on the same side as the West in holding back Muslim extremism.
But at the same time, he remains at loggerheads with the U.S. and Europe in the worst crisis since the Cold War.

Russia, and the rest of the world, will survive this uprising of ISIS.

Talk to some of your older relatives (if you are still fortunate to have any) who were alive prior to WWII. Many people despaired at the military might of Germany, controlled by a madman who intended on taking over all of Europe, as well as reducing the Soviet Union to rubble. You also had a mighty military machine in Japan, threatening their part of the world.

Yet, finally, the rest of the world rose up and stamped out the Axis powers. No mean feat, considering how utterly ruthless and powerful Germany and Japan were.

Except that, so far as we know, the Kardashian's do not commit acts of genocide or cut off peoples heads.

I would suggest every Nation take ISIS very serious, they have recruits from all around the world among them and many of them can easily return to their Nation of origin and at that point all bets are off. Hopefully Nations around the world will monitor those that were once their own and if they return arrest and remove them as a threat in a permanent manner.

ISIS will provide great tactical target practice for the Russia military. Unlike mountainous Afghanistan, the great Mesopotamian plain is ideal for air and armor operations.

Yes, that is why they have done so well putting down the several uprisings/revolutions they currently have had going on for years now

They threatened the US, Russia and the UK.
They took over Iraq.

That's some formidable group there.

The MSM is doing an excellent job of making sure the peons in first world countries feel threatened and scared.
Then they will favor their government going to war.

And war is needed to keep the economies from crashing.

Well someone took the threat to Putin and Russia seriously.

Quote:
[Ramzan] Kadyrov, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, went on an Instagram rant after Islamic State posted a video threatening Putin over his support for Syria's Bashar al-Assad and vowing to liberate Chechnya. The Muslim strongman, who has fought Islamic militants in his backyard for years, seemed to take special umbrage at a threat aimed at his patron in Moscow.



"I state with full responsibility that the one who had the idea to express a threat to Russia and say the name of the president of the country Vladimir Putin, will be destroyed, where he did it," Kadyrov seethed. "I emphasize that they finish their days under the hot sun in Syria and Iraq, and in the first instant of death meet their eternal flames of Hell. Allahu Akbar!"

They are a threat.
No they didn't.
Dangerous yes, formidable, no I would not go that far.
Telling people about a danger is making the peons feel scared? Really?
Nope, but they are favoring doing something other than simply talking about the threat.

I'm not suggesting we don't take them seriously.... but rather, that they're eating up all the attention they're getting.
