Interesting “outside expert” overview, and feels very real. Comment section includes people in the region saying so.
BTW: ISIS — formerly “ISI,” (until Syria (the “S”) was added) — hmmm . . . so perhaps the cabal did not name it for an old goddess and try to invert her meaning? Or is this a case of layered realities (illusions) . . .
Arresting, the notion of ISIS “forces” likened to something “between a liquid and a gas,” flowing up and down the Euphrates from Iraq to Syria, wherever a vacuum opens.
“All ISIS had to do was tilt to the east, along the axis of the Euphrates River. This river defines the territory of the Sunni insurgency. It starts in Syria, passes through ar-Raqqah, ISIS’s HQ in Syria, and crosses into Iraq, passing through ISIS strongholds like Ramadi and Fallujah before veering south toward the Gulf. The Euphrates defines the insurgency, not because ISIS fighters actually need it to travel but because, before the 20th century, settlement was only possible along its banks, so the Sunni Arabs built their towns along the river.”
The article, which is long on fractious and confusing local politics, does not address just how these scruffy ISIS folks managed to garner all those gleaming white pickups. Just who is funding and supplying them? Or does it even matter in a world increasingly weary of war.
Via ranprieur.

Ann, I am going out on a bit of a limb with the following observation but feel instinctively that it
may have a place in the overall ‘Iraq Issue’.
Many fundamental (and often very influential) Christians adhere to literal biblical translation and are fervent in their belief of ‘End-time and Final Judgment’. The location at which point the Tigris River meets the Euphrates River (see map above) plays a crucial role in fulfillment of the prophecy.
Are sincere believers (who bring clout and wealth to the table) being used to further a hidden and possibly misguided agenda?…would not be the first instance in the history of mankind.
Aaaah . . . yes, VERY interesting, Rose. Thanks for the observation.
I do feel that the whole ISIS “code cracking” in the alternative media has been a red herring with intent to distract from the Mother Goddess energies that could help heal and nurture our planet. (That’s why I had said “if” it’s true that the elites were purposely referencing Isis.) What’s interesting in terms of the Runic-linguistic aspects, though, is that the embedded double “IS” Rune works whether or not you have the second S. Runic code goes both ways. It’s multidimensional, so “ISI” still contains the subconscious marker and potential/programming for a double intention of calming and healing … or a double intention of freezing through fear and stopping the awakening … depending on one’s intention and frequency.
