‘Islamic Emirate’ Being Planned as ISIS Threatens Iraqi Water Supply
(World Tribune / Worthy News)– The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) has formed a corridor from Syria to Iraq.
Opposition sources said ISIS, deemed the most powerful Al Qaida franchise in the Middle East, has captured a swathe of territory from the northern city of Aleppo to the Iraqi border. They said the corridor would enable a flow of fighters and weapons from Syria to Iraq.
“We plan to establish an Islamic emirate in the Levant,” ISIS commander Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi said.

Yesterday, ISIS seized the Iraqi City of Mosul.
The water supply in Iraq is now being threatened by ISIS.
Extremists fighters from the al Qaeda offshoot the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) are now able to control, or at least seriously damage, Iraq’s water supply.
Earlier today, fighters from ISIS, which was actually expelled from Al Qaeda’s global network in February, captured Mosul, the capital of northern Iraq and the country’s second largest city. The entirety of the city is reported to be in ISIS’s hands since government troops and police officers abandoned their posts before the offensive.
ISIS’s control of Mosul places it in a prime position to launch an attack against the Mosul Dam, the largest in the country. The dam impedes the Tigris River, which, along with the Euphrates River, is the main source of water for the vast majority of Iraq’s 32 million citizens.
