To Fulfill Prophecy? Now ISIS Advances Toward Ancient Town That Is Associated With Biblical Countdown To Armageddon
Islamic State Twitter accounts report a major victory in Syria, bringing the jihadist group closer to the Turkish border - and an ancient town associated with the countdown to Armageddon. Accounts verified as official Islamic State accounts, those belonging to Islamic State fighters and pro-Islamic State accounts tweeted that the towns of Akhtarin, Al-Masoudiya and Turkmen Barah had been taken overnight. Militant fighters are reported to have beaten fighters from the extremist Islamic Front and more moderate Free Syrian Army to take the towns. The significance is how far west into Syria this puts Islamic State fighters, and how close they now are to the Turkish border. Advancing across the west will enable Islamic State to "choke off" supplies reaching rebels across the Turkish borders. There is also speculation that foreign fighters heading to the Syrian civil war through the Turkish border will be drawn into the Islamic State's ranks.
