"An apparent Islamic State recruitment document found in Pakistan's lawless tribal lands reveals that the extremist group has grand ambitions of building a new terrorist army in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and triggering a war in India to provoke an Armageddon-like "end of the world."

The 32-page Urdu-language document obtained by American Media Institute (AMI) and reviewed by USA TODAY details a plot to attack U.S. soldiers as they withdraw from Afghanistan and target American diplomats and Pakistani officials.

AMI obtained the document from a Pakistani citizen with connections inside the Pakistani Taliban and had it independently translated from Urdu by Harvard researcher and translator Mustafa Samdani.

I thought that was their whole goal in the first place, bringing all the world under the rule of a single caliphate in order to initiate the end times, not exactly new info.

They're actually reasonably like the Mahdist state, if you ask me.

Tango, what is this 'Dabio' document, printed in English with a picture of Noah's Ark on the cover? The USA Today article you linked to does not reference it.

They would rather tolerate the recurring terrorist attacks that come from Pakistan. But if the Mujahidin succeed in engineering a provocation hideous enough to bring on a war between India and Pakistan, that war will go very badly for Pakistan, nukes or no.

I think it's called "Dabiq",Irv.

When you put it that way, Legion, the rest of us might as well toss in the towel now and get it over with… Unless you know something about Softy Viagra that we don't?…

Perhaps if you were to receive $150 USD billion, she'd agree to see you…….

Heck, with that much, you'd probably be hard pressed to keep her from moving in permanently.
