ISIS planning 'nuclear tsunami'
"The terrorists plan on killing several hundred million people. The west is drastically underestimating the power of ISIS. ISIS intends to get its hands on nuclear weapons,” says Todenhofer, calling the group a “nuclear tsunami preparing the largest religious cleansing in history.”
I keep wondering how far the world is going to let this go before someone steps up and DOES something.... Obama will not act because he sees any act as an example of American colonialism.
Now Putin will step up and be the "hero" of the day. However, with Putin, there is ALWAYS a hidden cost. Is the world willing to align itself with the Russian mafia?

Syria has captured two UK SAS within their borders so who really knows who ISIS really is.

isn't it funny how NATO invaded and raped whole countries just because their leaders wanted to get rid of the petrodollar...
... yet here we have an enemy that threatens to wipe out all that doesn't bow down to them and aims to get WMDs and the NATO does basically NOTHING!
doesn't take more than 1 neuron to see there's something wrong.

Yes someone already corrected me, see my remark page 4
Good, I responded as I saw it, not when I finished the thread - however, perhaps you'll check your sources better in future.

From your linked Daily Mail article
a visit by Foreign Office Minister Mike O'Brien.
Mike O'Brian is a Labour Party MP. The Labour Party haven't been in government since 2010. The Daily Mail article has to be at least 5 years old.
Lopez is well respected in the intelligence community and worked in the Reagan White House. After two decades in the field with the CIA, and as an instructor for special forces and intelligence students, Lopez is now with the Center for Security Policy managing the counter-jihad and Shariah programs.
Now, she is claiming Obama is why America has completely “switched sides” during the war on terrorism. America is now supporting the enemy, especially through the Muslim Brotherhood.
Lopez has been unwilling to speak in public, but has confined with a few members of the House of Representatives her serious concerns about Obama’s motivations about foreign policy decisions.
Lopez noted that the war on terrorism has always been about stopping the spread of Shariah Islamic law, until Obama started to make major changes which clearly supported the Muslim Brotherhood’s jihadist interests.

For a lot of groups like ISIS getting a nuke is like getting a three-way, its there ultimate fantasy, they will pursue it but much like a three-way actually getting one is very difficult and knowing what to do with when you actually get one is pretty difficult.
The best they can realistically get is a dirty bomb or there could be a very remote possibility they could get a low grade nuke but the odds of that are so low its almost negligible.
Then actually using it, how are they going to do that.
The worst they could do would be to set it off in the middle of Damascus or Baghdad, if they do that it would not trigger nuclear war it would only trigger the death of ISIS, the international community would pass a resolution in the UN calling for a huge military effort to obliterate ISIS.

I agree with what you are saying but I think getting a feasible 50Kt nuke is a bit different than taking over most of Syria in a short time frame.
