Nuclear annihilation across the globe. This is what a German reporter who successfully embedded with the Islamic State says the terror group is planning.
Jurgen Todenhofer released his findings in a book titled “Inside IS - Ten Days in the Islamic State,” reports the UK’s Daily Express.
“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.”

No one likes us
I don't know why,
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens
We give them money but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them
Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There’ll be no one left to blame us
We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin’ too
Boom goes London and boom Paree
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there’ll be Italian shoes for me
They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now
~ Randy Newman
I would add, that's not exactly comforting, given how Christians and Jews ARE being treated by ISIS...
One well-placed EMP device would make THOSE resulting economic convulsions look like child's play.
ABCNNBCBS- Disinformation and propaganda.
Good bumper sticker.
I always thought this meant that ISIS would detonate the side of a western facing mountain/volcano in the Canary Is triggering a US east coast tsunami.

La Palma is currently the most volcanically active island in the Canary Islands Archipelago. It is likely that several eruptions would be required before failure would occur on Cumbre Vieja.[20][21] However, the western half of the volcano has an approximate volume of 500 cubic kilometres (120 cu mi) and an estimated mass of 1.5 trillion metric tons (1.7×1012 short tons). If it were to catastrophically slide into the ocean, it could generate a wave with an initial height of about 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) at the island, and a likely height of around 50 metres (164 ft) at the Caribbean and the Eastern North American seaboard when it runs ashore eight or more hours later. Tens of millions of lives could be lost in the cities and/or towns of St. John’s, Boston, Halifax, New York, Baltimore, Washington, D.C., Miami, Havana and the rest of the Eastern Coasts of the United States and Canada, as well many other cities on the Atlantic coast in Europe, South America and Africa.[20][21] The likelihood of this happening is a matter of vigorous debate.[23]
Not under the current regime, or any RAT successor to it.
Sadly, I think you are correct.
“In America an attack on children would unite many factions to go out muzzie hunting with no bag limit”.
And it would be done with extreme prejudice.
Don’t forget that Hitler turned on his ally (USSR). I suspect that these islamo-fascists would do the same to both China and Russia in time
Smear BACON GREASE on the tips of our bullets?
What about a glob of country ham fat? We have plenty of
hog fat bacon drippings; but the solidified stuff is easier
to handle.
John’s shotgun is propped by the door. For now, he’s shooting squirrels - little and good practice.
I can’t hit the side of a barn; just the target on the barn door. Is that OK?
Go to Lake Lure in North Carolina and take a boat tour and the guide will show you an island in the lake with nice houses on it and no access except by boat. The guide tells a story of how the snakes were cleared off the island when the lake was first flooded. The legend is that huge numbers of snakes, some of them venomous, were trapped on the island and no one knew how to get them off until a farmer showed up and guaranteed to get rid of them within a few weeks for a certain price. This was agreed on and the farmer showed up with a flatboat loaded with pigs which he released on the island. A few weeks later he came back and reloaded his now much larger, well fed pigs and told the people they could go on the island without fear. Pigs do eat snakes and are not much affected by snake venom, I know this from growing up on the farm, the rest of the story I don’t know about. What I am getting to is that maybe we need to haul a few aircraft carrier loads of pigs to release in the middle East.
That reminds me...
I started (around 2002) to compile a comprehensive list of ALL muslim "holy sites," complete with geographic coordinates, that would "respond" to the first Western "target" that these subhumans attack. No second chances, no excuses, no explanations.
The shadows in the background, the enablers, funding and egging the actual animals who do the dirty deed will have their own special secondary list.
Unfortunately, seemingly "innocent" targets, who protect and enable the drivers of the terror (Geneva comes to mind) will be among this second list.
The collective terrorist agents of the subject of this thread have been kind enough to continue to enrich the very valuable "target rich environments." The giant skyscraper next to the heart of MECCA comes to mind.
Let's start with the top 20. But the list must include at least 200. These Mass Murdering killers are slow learners.
I will not even think about preparing for that first attack by the Muslim Mass Murderers. If I am not among the victims, I will participate in the response.
If I am among the victims, I will rest peacefully knowing that there are millions of others like me who will take care of business.
The terrorist network has validated the only rational response for the civilized man: No rules of engagement.
Here is a good critique of “One Second After”
I purchased this book because I have been flogging the Electromagnetic Pulse (EMP) attack scenario to friends and relatives since early 2008, when it became apparent to me that the U.S. had lost the will to halt nuclear proliferation among terror-sponsoring states. I reasoned that a stateless actor or an apocalyptic regime might calculate that an EMP attack would actually create more casualties and more economic damage than a direct strike on any one city. An EMP attack also has the advantage of being the equivalent of hitting the broad side of a barn. Just get the nuke up a couple hundred klicks and go “boom,” rather than trust your missile’s guidance to hit an urban center from offshore or (alternatively) risk detection of a smuggled warhead. Lastly, the straightforward atomic bomb designs a nascent nuclear state is likely to deploy don’t make as big a crater as a sophisticated “hydrogen” (fusion) bomb does, but they’re already very effective at creating EMP.
Given the above, one would imagine I’d be among the vanguard in extolling this novel. For reasons great and small though, I was ultimately disappointed. In my opinion the story’s biggest flaw is its implicit assumption that EMP would render irrevocably inoperable any integrated-circuit based device — i.e., anything more advanced than wires, coils, and vacuum tubes — and by extension anything that depended upon such devices (your modern automobile, for example). My readings so far of the findings of the ongoing EMP Commission (in particular April 2008, see empcommission.org) suggest that this is a gross exaggeration. True, while the near-certain collapse of the electrical grid would immediately harm the transportation infrastructure (imagine no subways, no commuter rail, no street or traffic lights), the vast majority of automobiles would still be mobile. Similarly, while the cellular phone and land-line telephone systems will be severely crippled (at onset) or entirely nonfunctional (after 72 hours) due to their ultimate dependence on the electrical grid and sophisticated switching technologies, there is little reason to believe that battery-operated two-way radios and (especially) simple AM and shortwave receivers would be harmed at all. The author’s belief that only antique autos would run and only tube radios will turn on following EMP is key to creating the conditions of immobilization and isolation on which the rest of his story arc depends. And when I couldn’t buy into the author’s core assumptions, the plot lost much of its punch.
From that point onward, the book’s other shortcomings became more grating. Some old-school editing, say from my bespectacled junior-year English teacher, would have helped a great deal. Mrs. K would certainly have caught the “horde” used mistakenly instead of “hoard”, the “striped” for stripped, the “breech” which was supposed to be a breach and the “than” / “that” typos which mangle a sentence. Adverbs in dialogue were recycled to the point of distraction. There’s only so many times a character can respond “sharply” to another in a single conversation before the reader wants to attack the book with a sharply instrument.
It would be a terrible shame if this book’s vision convinced readers that an actual EMP attack would be unavoidably catastrophic, and survivable only by a select few who empty their bank accounts and utterly abandon their former lifestyles in preparation. I sincerely believe that this is not the case, and that the most-likely EMP attack scenarios can be survived by nearly everyone who can plan for three months without the grocery store, ATM, and utility services. Yes it takes some forethought and a little planning, but think of it as a life insurance policy for your entire family that actually pays off when you wind up living instead of the other way around.
I would’ve loved an EMP disaster novel to be a smash hit that would later become the movie that would galvanize an irresistible push for robust missile defense and an uncompromising policy of nonproliferation. I desperately want a concerted government program to harden the protections on high-value electrical infrastructure and build increased EMP resistance into our evolving telecommunications system. Maybe these things will still happen, but I don’t see this book being the trigger for them.
It is from Amazon.com
If we had a real educational system, it would show documentaries like the one I was referring to. It is important to learn the lessons of history and the consequences of blinding following anyone or believing too much in the state. Power corrupts; that lesson cannot be taught enough.
People should learn to ALWAYS questions the motives and actions of those in power. Too often it is about serving themselves and not serving the people.
Ping
And the kicker is, that our tax dollars will have paid for this nuclear tsumani.
Good post, ExSoldier - thanks!
