Fears exist that the savage militant group ISIS may soon obtain a weapon of mass destruction from Pakistan, according to reports.
The latest publication of the propaganda magazine Dabiq claims that the group has threatened the modern world that it would intensify its brand of violence in less than 12 months, which in any case, has been growing at an alarming rate, the Daily Star has reported.
It is believed that the murderous group has billions of dollars in the bank and would use links to corrupt officials in the region of Pakistan to buy a nuclear device.
Although it admitted that the situation was "far-fetched," it warned that even if not a nuke, they could pop up about a few thousand tons of ammonium nitrate explosives.
The ISIS is looking to do something big that would make any past operation look like a squirrel shoot, and the more groups that pledge allegiance to it, the possibility of it pulling off something truly epic cannot be underestimated or ignored.
Recently, a shocking video has surfaced showing ISIS thugs using a Bazooka to execute a captured prisoner. Pictures have also emerged from inside Palmyra, Syria, of decapitated bodies lying strewn in the streets.
It is being feared that these Islamic extremists are intent on destroying the ancient ruins of Palmyra.
Syria's antiques chief Mamoun Adulkarim has warned that the situation is very bad.
