World events since the attacks of September 11, 2001 have not only been predicted, but also planned, orchestrated and - as their architects would like to believe - controlled. The current Central Asian war is not a response to terrorism, nor is it a reaction to Islamic fundamentalism. It is in fact, in the words of one of the most powerful men on the planet, the beginning of a final conflict before total world domination by the United States leads to the dissolution of all national governments. This, says Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) member and former Carter National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, will lead to nation states being incorporated into a new world order, controlled solely by economic interests as dictated by banks, corporations and ruling elites concerned with the maintenance (by manipulation and war) of their power. As a means of intimidation for the unenlightened reader who happens upon this frightening plan - the plan of the CFR - Brzezinski offers the alternative of a world in chaos unless the U.S. controls the planet by whatever means are necessary and likely to succeed.

you don't have to guess anything, .
I'm not GUESSING. My degree is psychology and I"m saying that the Egyptian monuments are classic Freudian. Doesn't matter what they are based on ... the size of them and the shape of the structure coupled with the power of the Pharoah all speak to the man in power strutting his manhood. It's a psychology thing ... something you aren't educated in.

Saudia Arabia has already destroyed most of the ancient historical architectural treasures in the name of Islam. This could very well happen in Egypt as well.
At least Isis is consistent in recognizing that the black rock is an idol that is worshipped by most Muslims.
ISIS reportedly is planning to take over the city of Arar in Saudi Arabia, which is very close to the Iraq border. It is a fifteen-hour drive away from Mecca, the site of the Hajj pilgrimage which all observant Muslims are expected to do at least once.

While the term may have been coined by the US, the tactic has been around a LOT longer than we have. It has been used by armies since war began. Better to go big and by surprise when you are hitting armies that are stronger on paper.

For once stop trolling and actually discuss the issue.
Here's a clue to what it is ... .

Honestly, IMHO, they seem more intent on 'fixing' Islam and Muslims who 'aren't Muslim enough' then on wiping out the Jews .... so far. I'd be more concerned about those traveling to Mecca. If they get a foothold in that city they said they want ... that's not too far away and it would be easy to use that as a launching point during the Haj.

I have a feeling they already have plenty of supporters even closer to Mecca.

very tiny percent of Muslims would agree with anything ISIS preaches.
even the extremists have distanced themselves from the International Super Intelligence Services.
who does greater harm than he who prevents his name to be remembered in the mosques of allah and strives to destroy them? those, they will not enter them except in fear. and for them shame in this world and a great punishment in the next. (2:114)
Many questions have been raised by the recent spate of Al-Qaeda attacks on Saudi Arabia, not least the attack on the Wadia Border Post with Yemen in the southern province of Sharura, and the subsequent attack on the provincial security headquarters. Why now? And furthermore, how is it that all of these attacks are taking place on Saudi Arabia’s southern border when everyone feared an attack from the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) via the country’s northern borders with Iraq?
Early information reveals a number of issues, most dangerously that the terrorists are now competing for publicity. We can see this in Twitter comments that preceded the attack and which sought to incite against the Sharura province security apparatus, claiming that they threatened women and wrongly accused certain parties of being jihadists. These accusations were patently false. This raises questions about Twitter’s toleration of such threats, as well as who it was that issued these threats in the first place.
As for the objective of the Al-Qaeda attack on Saudi Arabia’s southern border, the most likely reading of this is that the terrorist group is trying to compete with ISIS propaganda in Iraq. Al-Qaeda is trying to pre-empt ISIS claims that it is able to infiltrate Saudi territory, God forbid. This is an obvious propaganda ploy, particularly when taking into account the ongoing rivalry between Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

ISIS is an enigma, bearing the face of Islamic Extremism yet displaying all the traits of our friends from the alphabet agencies.
Weird.

It is just odd the black stone meteorite goddess worship and ISIS.
That earliest temples contained a sacred stone, probably a meteorite, some say it was stolen.
Seriously though, what does this look like to you?
