“Get Ready”: US Defense Secretary Says ISIS Caliphate Is “Beyond Anything That We’ve Seen”

The Prophet Daniel himself intimated similar sentiments. And the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, is being forced to acknowledge that ISIS “is an organization that has an apocalyptic, end-of-days strategic vision and which will eventually have to be defeated.” And it will be …

Daniel 7:7, “… a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, exceedingly strong. It had huge iron teeth; it was devouring, breaking in pieces, and trampling the residue with its feet. It was different from all the beasts that were before it …”

FOX News – “Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel issued a dire warning Thursday about the threat posed by the Islamic State terrorist group, saying the organization is ‘beyond anything that we’ve seen.’

Hagel spoke at a press conference in which he addressed the execution of American journalist James Foley, at the hands of terrorists from the group, also known as ISIS or ISIL. The U.S. military continues to launch airstrikes against Islamic State targets in northern Iraq, in support of Iraqi and Kurdish forces, but Hagel suggested more action may be necessary.

‘ISIL is as sophisticated and well-funded as any group that we have seen,’ Hagel said. ‘They’re beyond just a terrorist group. They marry ideology, a sophistication of strategic and tactical military prowess. They are tremendously well-funded. Oh, this is beyond anything that we’ve seen. So we must prepare for everything.’

He said the only way to do that is take a ‘cold, steely hard look’ and ‘get ready.’

The U.S. has restricted its military action to Iraq, but concerns have increased as the Islamic militant group extends its reach from safe havens in Syria across the Iraqi border.

Speaking alongside Hagel at a Pentagon news conference, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey said that although the Islamic State group can be contained it cannot be defeated without attacking it in Syria.

Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said this would not necessarily require airstrikes by the U.S., although Hagel appeared to leave open that possibility by telling reporters, ‘We’re looking at all options.’

Dempsey, who served multiple tours in Iraq during the 2003-2011 war, was pointed in his comments about what it would take to ultimately defeat the Islamic State group.

‘They can be contained, not in perpetuity,’ Dempsey said. ‘This is an organization that has an apocalyptic, end-of-days strategic vision and which will eventually have to be defeated.'” Read more.

Hamas-Linked CAIR’s Nihad Awad: “Israel Is The Biggest Threat To World Peace And Security”

Sound familiar? When the Muslim nations surrounding Israel gather together against Jerusalem in excited anticipation of Islam’s “prophesied” destruction of the Jewish State of Israel, they will all be saying “Peace and Security.” And they’ll be right. There will be peace and security indeed, but it’ll be God’s version of peace and security, not theirs …

Joel 3:11-12, 14, “Hasten and come, all you surrounding nations, And gather yourselves there. Bring down, O LORD, Your mighty ones. Let the nations be aroused And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat, for there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations… Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near …”

1 Thessalonians 5:2-3, “For you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. When they say, ‘Peace and security,’ then sudden destruction comes on them, like labor pains come on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.”

Hadith, Sahih Muslim, 41:6985, “The Day of Judgement will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews, when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Muslims, O Abdullah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him …”

Nidal Awad Poses With The “Holy” Book Of Death

By Robert Spencer, Jihad Watch – “Bigger than the Islamic State. Bigger than Boko Haram. Bigger than al-Qaeda. Bigger than al-Shabaab. Bigger, of course, than Hamas and Hizballah and Islamic Jihad. Bigger than the genocidal anti-Semites of the Iranian mullahcracy. As far as the Islamic supremacist Nihad Awad of Hamas-linked CAIR is concerned, none of those jihadis are as big a threat to world peace and security than a nation of Jews who refuse to submit.

‘Hey, Nihad, Look up. Look Down.,’ IPT News, August 22, 2014:

Vladimir Putin’s Russian forces remain poised for a possible takeover of neighboring Ukraine. Nuclear-armed North Korea is ruled by an unstable, nihilistic dictator who constantly makes new threatsagainst American allies and the United States itself (along with some of its filmmakers). The Islamic State terrorist group slaughters as many people who cross its path and poses a credible threat of genocide against the ancient Yazidi people in Iraq.

But according to Nihad Awad, head of the supposedly mainstream Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), those threats to global peace pale in comparison with the real threat to world peace and security: Israel.

What’s especially bizarre is that Awad’s assessment on Twitter is bracketed by tweets critical of ISIS’ brutality, which were posted after ISIS released video showing the vicious killing of journalist James Wright Foley.

Awad writes that Israel “targets civilians.” This is demonstrably false, given the warning calls and leaflets Israel’s military drops before targeting terrorists who do target civilians with the rocket fire, or the leaders of terrorist groups like Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad who sanction those attacks.

This is no mis-statement by Awad or an aberration. In July, he called for

By Justin Davenport, London Evening Standard – “A man was charged today with plotting a terror attack on the streets of  London. Brustchom Ziamani, 19, appeared in court charged with engaging in conduct in preparation of terrorist acts.

He was arrested on the street in Camberwell on Tuesday with a bag containing a hammer and a knife, a court heard. Both were wrapped in an Islamic flag, prosecutor Mark Dawson told Westminster magistrates court.

Jobless Ziamani, who appeared in court wearing a Call of Duty T-shirt, stood throughout the hearing.

He was arrested by Scotland Yard counter-terror detectives.

The prosecutor said there was  material that showed the defendant’s belief in jihad and his desire to go  to Syria to fight, but he did not have the means to do so. Ziamani, of Camberwell, understood to be a Muslim convert of Congolese origin, was first arrested in June and bailed.

Police seized his computer and examined three discs of material.

Mr Dawson said he was then arrested on Tuesday at 4.30 pm.

He was remanded in custody by magistrate John Zani.

Ziamani will appear at the Old Bailey next month.” Source – London Evening Standard.

Spokesman For “Non-Violent” Islamist Group Calls Upon Muslims Worldwide To … Get Violent

Because Islam is blessed with faithful men and women who long for death. Lawlessness. Where would Islam be without it? …

Qur’an Sura 18:26, “[Allah] maketh none to share in his government.”

By Raheem Kassam, Breitbart – “A spokesperson for the supposedly ‘non-violent’ group Hizb ut-Tahrir (HT) has appeared on video calling for Muslims around the world to rise up against the governments of the countries in which they live, with special reference to ‘going abroad and visiting’ the Middle East.  Taji Mustafa – who is known for touring of British university campuses delivering lectures to young, impressionable students – gave a speech at a Friday mosque sermon last month in which he claimed:

‘Why is it that the [Muslim] armies have not moved? Is it that we don’t have armies? Is it that we are cowards? No, no, no. This Islamic nation has been blessed with men, with women, with faith, with people who long for martyrdom, with people who want to be the descendants of Saladin… Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan – we could drown this place. But what we have today is rulers who have abandoned the Quran.’

Mustafa’s words come as Britain finds itself mired in dealing with homegrown extremism which has led to over 500 jihadists absconding and moving to Iraq and Syria to fight alongside the brutal terrorist organisation ISIS.

While counter-extremism experts have been warning about Hizb ut-Tahrir and the likes of Mustafa for years, the British government has been unable to proscribe the group for fear of being slapped down by the European Court of Justice.

Meanwhile, HT speakers continue to tour UK universities and mosques with messages of jihad and war. Mustafa said in his sermon …” Read more.

US General: The United States Must Destroy The ISIS Caliphate Now

If the Prophet Micah is any indication, the United States could certainly be among those that will, sooner or later, be forced to rise up and fight against the forces of Antichrist. In the end, however, only the Lord Himself will ultimately destroy the Islamic Beast …

Daniel 7:21-22, “I was watching; and the same horn was making war against the saints, and prevailing against them, until the Ancient of Days came, and a judgment was made in favor of the saints of the Most High, and the time came for the saints to possess the kingdom.”

2 Thessalonians 2:8, “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming.”

Daniel 7:27, “Then the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people, the saints of the Most High. His kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey Him.’”

By Gen. John R. Allen, USMC (Ret), Defense One – “The brutal murder of the brave American journalist James Foley is meant to directly terrorize the world’s media, the international community, and the United States. If all the actions of the Islamic State, or IS, to date weren’t sufficiently reprehensible, this act and the potential for other similar acts will snap American attention with laser-like focus onto the real danger IS poses to the existence of Iraq, the order of the region and to the homelands of Europe and America.

Make no mistake, the abomination of IS is a clear and present danger to the U.S. The only question really is whether the U.S. and its allies and partners will act decisively now while they can still shape events to destroy IS, an act that seems increasingly self-obvious.

President Barack Obama, our commander-in-chief, was right to order airstrikes on IS elements in northern Iraq. He was also right to order humanitarian relief for the Yazidis and other desperate Iraqi minority elements fleeing the onslaught of IS elements, but until the grisly death of James Foley much of the American public was only beginning to awaken to what IS is and the enormity of the threat it represents.

The U.S. is now firmly in the game and remains the only nation on the planet capable of exerting the kind of strategic leadership, influence and strike capacity to deal with IS. It is also the only power capable of organizing a coalition’s reaction to this regional and international threat. As a general officer commanding at several levels in the region, I can say with certainty that what we’re facing in northern Iraq is only partly a crisis about Iraq. It is about the region and potentially the world as we know it.

Weeks ago I called for this group to be attacked in the manner only the U.S. can undertake – suddenly, swiftly, surgically – to deal it a setback and to begin the systematic dismantlement of this scourge. As we consider this threat there are some important points to consider that give urgency to the imperative to act:

The Islamic State is executing a well-thought-out campaign design intended to dismantle both Syria and Iraq and install in their place an Islamic Caliphate. Though we’re keyed into it now, we missed it initially.

IS is a well-organized entity, almost certainly supported by former Saddamist regime elements whose hand can be seen in the campaign design now unfolding. This group is not a flash in the pan that will go away of its own accord or if we don’t poke at it. It is not benign. IS is reinforced by Sunni tribal elements from Syria and Iraq, and most alarmingly, is aided by a witch’s brew of foreign fighters from Chechens to Uighurs to Pashtuns, but also including Europeans and Americans. The Caliphate’s Western recruits will be felt in the European and American homelands for years to come regardless of the fate IS and its cause.

IS is quite well heeled. It is flush with recently captured American and Iraqi ordnance and armored vehicles, and awash with dollars lifted from Iraqi banks along its route of advance. It is demonstrating an alarming ability to absorb heavier and more complex military capabilities and put them to work against their erstwhile opponents. IS is able to demonstrate substantial battlefield innovation and agility — two qualities none of us can afford as IS continues its forward movement and attempts to consolidate.

So how should we ‘see’ IS and what is this terrorist group up to?

Within its means, IS is waging total war on …” Read more.

By Mark Suppelsa, WGNtv – “There is another chilling Chicago connection in the battle between the US. and extreme Islamic militants isil (ISIS).

First there’s the beheading of the journalist who was the Northwestern graduate.

Now WGN Investigates has found an online war of words and disturbing images that includes an implied threat to a Chicago landmark building.

It’s a nasty, sometimes horrible back and forth coming on the heels of U.S. bombing of ISIS forces in Iraq involving Facebook and Twitter pages with titles like, #AMessageFromISIStoUS and vice versa.

Near the top of this tit for tat is the gruesome video and pictures of journalist James Foley’s beheading.

Some Americans posted on the site disgusting photoshopped images Islamic religious leaders having sex with animals and images of U.S. firepower.

They’re reacting to one of the tweets which shows the ISIS flag in front of the White House.

US Senator: “We’re In The Most Dangerous Position We’ve Ever Been In As A Nation” Because Of Islamic Terror

And the reason for much of this is due, in part, because of the actions and inactions of the Obama Administration. What common sense often suggested that this administration should have done, they have not done. And what they should not have done, they often have. They have been weakening the military in unprecedented ways and have removed Islam from counter-terrorism training while ignoring the growing threat of the very ideology they’ve been pandering for far too long. And now, to quote those famous words of the infamous Jeremiah “I-Made-It-Comfortable-For-Obama-To-Accept-Christianity-Without Having-To-Renounce-His-Islamic-Background” Wright, America’s chickens are coming home to roost …

By Bob Unruh, WND – “The ranking Republican on the Armed Services Committee in the U.S. Senate is warning that ISIS terrorists, those who this week beheaded an American journalist, are trying to develop the capability of blowing up an entire American city.

The comments from Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., came in an interview with the Fox affiliate in Oklahoma City.

He said the U.S. now is in ‘the most dangerous position we’ve ever been in.’

Responding to questions about terror and the threat facing Americans, he said: ‘They’re crazy out there. And they are rapidly developing a method of blowing up a major U.S. city. You just can’t believe that’s happening.’

He told the station the threat is significant, and he blamed it on the cuts in defense spending made by President Obama.

‘He’s going to have to come up with something we’re going to do because they’re holding another hostage … and the problem is the president, he says all these things and he never does them.’

ISIS members, he said, are ‘really bad terrorists.’

‘They’re so bad that al-Qaida’s afraid of them.’

The threat to the U.S. should not be underestimated, he said.

‘This idea they’re coming in, infiltrating the United States. Sure some are coming in that are associated with ISIS, but a majority of them are still over there and they are undoing a lot of the good that has been done,’ he said.

According to a report in The Hill, ISIS, also known as Islamic State, ‘has long threatened to carry out a catastrophic attack on American soil, with a spokesman recently boasting that the militant group would fly its flag over the White House.’

WND reported just a day earlier that ISIS is training jihadists to attack targets in the U.S. and Europe.” Read more.
