#1 As per the blog father: faster please.

I would love to see ISIS make a real move on 'bul or Mecca. Let's ramp up this green on green and I'll corner the pop-corn market.

#2 The ISIS/ISIL/Daesh to attack Istanbul, + repor is planning to attack Jordan.

Looks like things have gotten much more complicated for Darth Vlad + Russian Army + Black Sea Fleet.

Darth Vlad = Russia, of course, will now have to worry about ISIS/ISIL influence on the Crimean Tatars + South Caucasus militancy.

As for the KSA, IIRC circa 60%-plus of Saudi Arabian youth on average support the ISIS/ISIL = Radical Islamist ideology.

#4 I would love to see them go for Mecca. That would cause some real waves in the Islamic world.

I'm not a big fan of the Turks but I suspect they could stop cold any ISIL army heading to Istanbul. As long as their own army doesn't flip or something.
