Islamic State militants threaten Turkey with violence if Euphrates water supply not restored

[IR1907]

Islamic State militants have directly threatened Turkey with violence as they swore to “liberate” Istanbul in order to reopen a dam on the Euphrates River. Water flow to parts of Syria and Iraq is at a record low.

The apparent closure is especially unfavorable to the terrorist group, as its new ‘capital’ Raqqa, in northern Syria, is in that zone. This is creating a humanitarian catastrophe as water levels plummet in nearby Lake Assad.

In a new Vice documentary episode on the IS militia, one member warns that if the Turkish government doesn’t open the Euphrates Dam back up, the group will do it for them by “liberating” Istanbul.

"I pray to God that the apostate [Turkish] government reconsiders its decisions. Because if they do not reconsider it now, we will reconsider it for them by liberating İstanbul," Abu Mosa, the spokesman for the group, tells the camera during the filming of the five-episode documentary in Raqqa. He makes sure to identify this as “a clear threat.”

The quicker these rats pick a fight with Turkey, the better. I'm in favour of the IS isolating themselves by assaulting their more powerful neighbours. It's about time they were contained to the Fertile Crescent by Iran, Saudi and Turkey and torched to ashes.

 

[he-man]

Turkey will **** these jokers up in no time.
Fucking retards

What a joke, 7,000 to 10,000 men at most being allowed to do everything. They are engaging in war of attrition with several nations in the region which are anti-Israel.

Funny thing is Saudi Arabia and Jordan haven't gotten a single threat or actual action.

America is a war wary nation now. Drone strikes, Air Strikes, Covert Ops are acceptable to the public.

The public has figured out Military isn't the answer for everything.

two possible reasons in my mind ..
1 may be they dont want to interfere in Iraq because this time more american lives will lost ... and this time battle will be fought by their Own weapons which Irqi army gift them (ISIS)
2. or Maybe , they want to use ISIS as they use Al-qaeda as brand of terrorism and follows it every where , attack countries ..

A little too late esp when they cried that the world was under attack ONLY when 2 towers fell in America (1 county) however this status is not awarded to the "world" when numerous states are being butchered by the same like forces that crashed the twin towers! Just coz its not happening in America ...hence the world is not under "threat" ...as though other lives worth less than 1 American life?

I really beg them to do so...this is not sarcasm. We need to tore up Northern provinces of Syria and Iraq for the sake of our national security.

 

[faisal6309]

Attack Turkey and then get killed by them.

The Towers were in NYC, the Big City, to reference the Finance/ Politics/ Media dominance it has on the World. Ask anyone in the world to list cities in America; New York, D.C., L.A., Houston, Chicago.

There were plenty of atrocities that happened before America and plenty that are happening, that America didn't get involved with. It's not our job to police the world so blatantly. If your so concerned have Pakistan or Singapore start parachuting troops in Kurdistan to help the Peshmerga.

No it wasnt Bush's job to call it a war on the world and ask the leaders of Australia and UK to butt in! It also wasnt Bush's domain to go lie that UN had approved their shit in Iraq....

All I am saying is the way they talked...Big city ...doesnt equal to war on world as Bush said!
