Islamic State 'planning to use Libya as gateway to Europe'

Islamic State militants are planning a takeover of Libya as a "gateway" to wage war across the whole of southern Europe, letters written by the group's supporters have revealed.

The jihadists hope to flood the north African state with militiamen from Syria and Iraq, who will then sail across the Mediterranean posing as migrants on people trafficking vessels, according to plans seen by Quilliam, the British anti-extremist group.

The fighters would then run amok in southern European cities and also try to attack maritime shipping.

I wondered why Quadaffi was thrown to the dogs back when it happened. This explains things.

We’re in serious trouble.

Unless the West gets on total war footing, and is willing to shed a lot of blood, then ISIS is going to run amok.

Billions of dollars on airport security isn’t going to accomplish anything other than push us further to bankruptcy.

My fear is we don’t have the courage to do so.

theyve already got what, 10 million into Europe/UK?

so what’s a couple million more?

Europe, like USA, has been sold out by its ruling elite

Agreed.

They won’t, as what will it mean ? Letting them sink & drown ? Public opinion wouldn’t stand for that, at least initially and there’s no “Nauru solution” either unless they use a Greek island or two !

Those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it.

White European Mean perfected killing and warfare as no others had or have conceived since.

ISIS doesn't have a clue what kind of retribution is coming their way if they start their silly, murderous sh!t on the Continent.

Never before has the KILLING CAPABILITY been so unbalanced between the West and Islam as it has for the last 60 years.

They'd do well not to trip that trigger.

Note to Muslims with delusions of Jihad in Europe:

Beware of Germans ordering more Zyklon B.

That misbegotten failure of US policy may have been the turning point in the destruction of the West.
The purported policy of soft invasion, kind of like what the Russians started doing in Ukraine, may actually work. The soldiers of the Caliphate will blend in with the less committed immigrants flooding Italy. But they will not enjoy the support of most of the surviving locals like in the Iraq theater.
Italy might be in line to get a lot of reality therapy.

And who opened that gate for them? Oh, yeah, that was our non-Islamic president Mr. Hussein 0bama.

I agree with what you said except at the end I really wish them no well at all. So I kinda hope they do this. Really I do.

So ISIS is about to conquer Rome.

Does Italy even have armed forces?

Look. I'm an art lover. Someone should start moving the art from the Vatican to preserve it for future generations.

Once ISIS is in charge they will trash it.

I'll take it. I got plenty of room in the barn. Heck, I could even hang some of the nicer pieces in the rumpus room for Superbowl Sunday.

Time for the US to stop rescuing the world.

I did think of how beneficial to everyone it would be if the Chinese wiped them out. Easily solvable problem.
