Rome will be conquered next, says leader of Islamic State
The Telegraph ^ | 7/1/2014 | Damien McElroy

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed leader of the Islamic State stretching across Iraq and Syria, has vowed to lead the conquest of Rome as he called on Muslims to immigrate to his new land to fight under its banner around the globe.

Baghdadi, who holds a PhD in Islamic studies, said Muslims were being targetted and killed from China to Indonesia. Speaking as the first Caliph, or commander of the Islamic faithful since the dissolution of the Ottoman empire, he called on Muslims to rally to his pan-Islamic state.

"Those who can immigrate to the Islamic State should immigrate, as immigration to the house of Islam is a duty," he said in an audio recording released on a website used by the group formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham.

"Rush O Muslims to your state. It is your state. Syria is not for Syrians and Iraq is not for Iraqis. The land is for the Muslims, all Muslims.

"This is my advice to you. If you hold to it you will conquer Rome and own the world, if Allah wills."

Considering the sad state of affairs in Europe, he may well be right. I would be very wary at automatically claiming that a 21st Century Battle of Lepanto could occur with even remotely similar results.

Rome is not next. Rome isn’t even close to being next. Rome wasn’t even colored in on their “5-year plan” map.

Well the Chinese are quickly on their way to becoming the #1 consumer of raghead oil.

And lemme tell ya Abu-buddy, they ain’t gonna treat you like we do.

Their “media” doesn’t worry about wars for oil and they got 100x the number of trained killers you do.

Sounds like a bit of rhetorical excess to me, like the oceans receding.

Last Sunday at Mass the priest offered a prayer for “our mulsim brothers and sisters.” I almost puked. I pray that HIS muslim brothers and sisters stop slaughtering Christians and Jews. Maybe the muslims are pushing up thier schedule to conquer Rome because of the soft headedness inside the Roman Catholic church.

Fine. Let them all move somewhere that we know they are.

Makes targeting easier.
