If the entirety of Dabiq were routed, would that make a difference to ISIS/Daesh?
According to the article and the prophesies, yes. But to really make it stick, I’d make the place uninhabitable for a generation...
The destruction & radioactive poisoning of Dabiq could be accomplished very quickly, so, the rise in “recruitment” that the article’s author fears would likely be brief, I’d say. Granted, I don’t think the West will leave the place glowing for 20 years...
Still, one way to fight these people is to “wreck” the prophesies.
