ISIS named it's magazine Dabiq, because of it's prophetic significance to them. It will be fun when the Kurds raise their flag over the town (this Spring?), and we can watch those cocky jihadis choke on their bullcrap:
...”Turkey = ISIS”....
Take strong notice of Aleppo (”Dabiq”)..... where fierce fighting is happening now in Syria...Isis and Islamic fighters along with it’s leadership believe this area is where the greatest battle between the Muslims and the West (Crusaders) will take place.....According to Islamic Apocalyptic writings the great war against the Infidel is to take place in this location they are now fighting and why so many Syrians are leaving Syria.....this is why you will hear them mention....”Dabiq”. Which is very near Aleppo and why it’s strategic for them.....
They are fighting to the death there because their belief is this fighting is the only way their messianic figure will come.... they’re anticipating the arrival of their ‘Mahdi’ , an Apolocalyptic messianic figure, which they also believe is destined to lead all Muslims to victory before the end of the world..... thereafter to be heralded by the rebirth of the caliphate whose return was
prophesied......Turkey’s Erdogan believes he’s to be the Supreme over this revived Ottoman Empire.
As one Syrian rebel leader stated.....”Dabiq is
NOT important militarily and yet the Islamic
State fought ferociously to capture the village this summer because its members believe the great battle between infidels and Muslims will take place there as part of the final drama preceding the Day of Judgment.”
They also are quite content to wait for the Russian , Nato or American armies to arrive in this fighting and initiate their countdown to the apocalypse.
...here’s a quote from one of Isis’s founders.. ‘Abu al-Zarqawi’...and also Isis leader ...’Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’ as quoted similiar phrases...
“The spark has been lit here in Iraq, and its heat continues to intensify...by Allah’s permission until it burns the crusader armies “””””in Dabiq.””””
And another quote....
“If you think all these mujahidin came from across the world to fight Assad, you’re mistaken. They are all here as promised by the Prophet. This is the war he promised—it
is the Grand Battle.”

Excellent post and very good assessment of the situation ... I truly hope the Russians clean house over there , as we have been quite duplicitous in this situation ..
I think we want ISIS to do the dirty work of ousting Assad , so the Saudi/Turk/EU pipeline can be run through Syria .. the Sunni countries desperately want the Euro pipeline to help us undercut the Russian European energy dominance at the behest of the EU and NATO .. everyone will get a piece of the pie ..
We keep poking the Bear on many fronts , the Cold war is over and we should be making the Russians our allies ... instead we are trying to dominate them ...
