Also where will it end? Where will they define their imaginary borders?
By their logic I claim all of the ocean in the name of my forefathers - protozoa.
What an absolute bunch of Richard Craniums.

Actually, if you see their original plan it only goes up to Morocco. I am sorry, Spain will not tolerate this. Period. This is nonsense.
The first map they released had Spain in black too and it had the name they say it was originally called emblazoned across it.
I think it's nonsense too, the world wouldn't let this happen...

Spain they won't get. Now France on the other hand could be taken over by ISIS or any other reasonably "motivated" group in about 10 days I would think based on their past history in conflicts.
ISIS is enjoying much of their success in Syria and Iraq, two countries that are a "vacuum" as far as a strong government/military presence. I feel their success will be fairly short lived and generally isolated to where they are right now. The problem will be the "off shoot" groups that spin off the main group and influence jihadi groups around the globe. It will be bloody in many places if their influence grows unchecked over the next few months.
This far the Obama administration has made one bad decision after another in this region opening the door for Russia and Iran to expand their influence. With the Iraqi central government unable to agree on anything ISIS appears to be consolidating their current hold in Iraq. I don't see ISIS being able to expand much further so for me the question is will ISIS be able to hold the line and keep what they have?
Attacks and conquest are two very different things they may as well add the US to the list and plan a manned mission to Titan
