“The secret of all victory lies in the organization of the non-obvious.” -Marcus Aurelius
With the help of a great number of experts, we made a video to answer this when the world’s national leaders were busy spouting non-substantiateable claims insisting it was not.
Now, an apostate has made it clear that it is with painstaking detail.

This may be a major story. It was sent to me by Fausta’s blog, who is the premiere blog tracking Islamification and leftist totalitarianism in English of the Spanish speaking world.
I believe she is doing a proper translation of it but for now, here is the original link and the best corrections I can do from a google translate. We will publish a proper translation as soon as we get it.
New operation against jihadist supply structures. National Police agents have seized about 20,000 military uniforms that were to be sent to Islamic State and Al-Nusra Front-the mark of Al Qaeda, in Syria, on Thursday, which were already stored in three containers of goods. They were going out to the Middle East from the ports of Valencia (two containers) and Algeciras (a container).
The containers contained uniforms and were declared as “second-hand clothes”, to avoid suspicion and to pass the different customs inspections without any difficulty, using a declaration dedicated to the export and import used clothing.
The uniforms were in large bundles camouflaged among others containing other clothing.
More information is expected to be released in minutes from now.
UPDATE:
Proper translation of first paragraph and explanation from Fausta:
New operation against jihadist supply networks. On Thursday, National Police agents seized 20,000 military uniforms that were being sent to the Islamic State and the Al Nusra front – Syria’s al-Qaeda branch – which were being stored in three shipping containers about to depart from the ports of Valencia (two containers) and Algeciras (one container).
Thank you Oz-Rita for this original translation
TERRORISM – The Portuguese authorities believe they have identified the author of the threats made in French in the Video of the Islamic State. He is reported to be of Portuguese origin and to hold the Luxembourg nationality; he left for Syria in 2014.
This is the French voice that has recently threatened opponents of IS with attacks of greater magnitude than those of 11 September and 13 November.
Steve Duarte, 27, has been identified by the Portuguese authorities. This Luxembourger of Portuguese origin is the blond haired jihadist who makes the threats against Western countries in the latest Daech [Islamic State] video.
“Steve Duarte, 27, has been in Syria since the end of 2014. The Portuguese authorities have strong suspicions that he is the executioner in the latest video of IS, put online last week, according to the Weekly “Expresso” .
The Jihadist “…has also the Portuguese nationality and came home frequently to Figueira da Foz (central Portugal), where he still has family.”
In short, Steve Duarte is said to be among the rare Portuguese who left to do jihad in Syria and he is (only) the sixth Luxembourger to have taken the plunge according to the “Luxembourger Wort”. In an article published in November 2014, that newspaper described him as “a young man from Meispelt”, now going under the name of “Abu Al Muhadjir Andalousi”.
Steve Duarte, a jihadist “with a truly free mind”
Duarte is reported to have gone to Syria to work on the propaganda for Daech, especially via social networks. Cyber-activist for Daech from the first hour, the Luxembourger denied having been indoctrinated by the terrorist group on his Facebook page, deleted today. “Journalists talk about what they do not know (about me) and the comments by Luxembourgers and others are made without knowledge.
Brainwashing, mental weakness, recruitment etc. None of this is true. Saying this would be the same thing as saying that IS executes innocent people.
We do not kill innocent people, these people are indeed guilty of crimes against innocents” he had declared, asserting to have gone to wage jihad with a truly free mind. Steve Duarte confirmed that “the decision was made by (him) self, no guru, no brainwashing and zero indoctrination”.
2014 video on same man from Portuguese news site:
*** We cannot substantiate this story nor cant the originating site which is linked here.***
Frankly, this is one of those stories which seems about equally irresponsible to present or hide either way. But as a 2011 documentary on A.Q. Khan made clear and showed with video footage, Osama Bin Laden did in fact seek, and was granted a fatwa saying that the us of nuclear weapons in jihad on the unbeliever was halal, (permitted) and even desirable. This was a 2006 release I believe called, ‘Nuclear Jihad’ and was made before the CVE kicked in and all links to jihad and, well’ jihad’ was blocked from the MSM.
It does however make one wonder if the story presented here is linked in any way to this Daily Mail item presented today here.
Initially there was an article in German and a video with the article read out loud in German.
Nash Montana translated and timed the article to work with the video. Below is the subtitled video and the timed transcription we made from the initial letter.
Really, I don’t know what to make of it other than if its a hoax its well done. Perhaps experts can comment on the types of nuclear weapons they name in the video and the likelihood of this being factual.
On the negative side, one imagines if the Islamic State/AlQuada/The Muslim Brotherhood had a nuke they would have used it an hour later in order to not risk being discovered and their expensive and difficult plans ruined and the discovery of a plan and a weapon like that would probably lead to a ‘backlash’ that even the worm-tongued Obama could prevent with all the CVE in his pen and phone.
Below the fold is the complete transcription of the video (contents of the letter) and below that the embed for the 2006 documentary on Nuclear Jihad
Zhudi is spot on here if you make a couple of minor changes. If he replaces the word, ‘radical’ with the word ‘Kinetic’ and exchanges the word ‘extremist’ with, ‘orthodox’ or ‘religious’ then he is actually great on this video linked here.
The main thing is, they distorted the timeline here. The Muslim Brotherhood is the parent organization of the other two. There is no merger, just a public admission that all these groups are identical but one was a beard for the other.
Video here duration 2:35
As the season 5 opener of the series, Homeland explained better than pretty much any news program or Western documentary on islam and the Islamic State detailed in the bunker scene, the whole point of the reformation of the Caliphate was an end of the world battle with the unbeliever for the world. This is why their magazine is called, ‘Dabiq’ after the city in which it is anticipated.
In the video that the Islamic State made, there is a lot of tanks. Tanks-a-lot would have been a better name for the video actually. But there is an informative bit where they show the flags of the countries they are at war with. Yes, most of these countries do not know it or worse, refuse to know that they are at war with them, but that typically does not end well. But we who live in these nations with these flags should consider ourselves as having been put on notice. We are being waged war upon.
Time to put the F16s back Justin?

1. India: Newspaper offices attacked by enraged Muslims for anti-Isis cartoon
A vernacular newspaper’s offices have come under attack after the daily published a cartoon mocking the Islamic State (Isis) which has angered Muslims in the western Indian state of Maharashtra. The Marathi daily, Lokmat, has been forced to apologise for the piggy bank cartoon.
Lokmat, a leading regional daily, published an article entitled Isis “cha paisa” (Isis’s money) accompanied by a cartoon. The caricature showed an illustration of various currency symbols falling into a piggy bank.
(This begs the all-important question: If the Islamic State is not truly islamic, why do muslims get enraged to violence when an Indian newspaper mocks it?)

There is much to say about this.
Below is the Russian language video we had translated and subtitled this morning along with a series of links to other videos and articles which seem to point to a Turkish and NATO and US connection to the Islamic State, its actions, its weapons and funding.
This is a very upsetting set of data points if one accepts the most likely conclusion from them
. Thank you Gates of Vienna and D@rLin|{ for helping get this done so quickly, and to Xanthippa that worked on this project as well.

Syrian Turkmen commander who ‘killed’ Russian pilot turns out to be Turkish ultranationalist
Today, Russia published this article which I put through google translate and screen captured below.
Add this to the news items from the Turkish press on arms shipments to the Islamic State and it starts to look pretty airtight. The real mystery is the NATO-US connection to Turkey and the Islamic State. There is simply no way Russia, and the Turkish media could know these things and the Obama administration would not.
1. Turkey feels that Russia should appologize for having its jet and rescue copter shot down and its pilots killed by Turkey and Turkish agents
2. I am not at liberty to say where I got the following bit of information at the moment but it is a source I know and I hope to have an interview with the source soon.
Meanwhile, the text below is verbatim from my email:
a message to me:
Xxxxxxxx, Turkish MIT & CIA have been working together for a few years. There is an entire warehouse full of weapons in Adana that belongs to the U.S. Consulate.
I’ll try to arrange an interview with someone that worked there.
3. In the article that was written in the spring, and which the Turkish government took down and only today, arrested the journalists who wrote it, (who may face life in prison now) the basic story ran that Erdogan was using the Turkish secret service to run large amounts of weapons and ordnance to the Islamic State fighters known as Turkmen.
Here is an article on who they are as related to the downing of the Russian jet and rescue heli
Syria’s Turkmen: who they are, and what they have to do with Russia’s downed plane
After Turkish forces shot down a Russian Su-24 warplane on the Turkey-Syria border on Tuesday morning, disturbing reports emerged that members of a Syrian rebel group claimed to have killed the Russian pilots as they descended with parachutes after ejecting from their destroyed plane.
“Both of the pilots were retrieved dead. Our comrades opened fire into the air and they died in the air,” Alpaslan Celik, a rebel commander, told Reuters.
To understand why Celik’s rebels would even claim to do this, you need to know a little bit about who they are. These rebels aren’t part of Syria’s Arab majority: They’re Turkmen, an ethnically Turkish minority in Syria that plays a unique role in the Syrian conflict — one that may have had something to do with the downing of Russia’s aircraft in the first place.
4. BBC link to the story about the Turkish journalists arrested in Turkey
5. Turkey makes the bizarre claim that it didn’t know the jet was Russian
(This begs a lot of questions even if true, which Ezra dealt with well in his video of yesterday)
6. Putin recommends tourism to Turkey ends from Russia
7. Turkey accuses Russia of slander as Moscow has 39 businessmen arrested in wake of downed plane
Vladimir Putin and Recep Tayyip Erdogan exchanged accusations of treachery and slander on Thursday, as the diplomatic fall out of Turkey shooting down a Russian warplane continued to mount.
The public recriminations came as Russia prepared to impose a swathe of punishing economic sanctions against Turkey, including abandoning a flagship pipeline project and a $20 billion nuclear power deal.
A Turkish fighter jet shot down a Russian SU-24 bomber as it carried out a mission against rebel fighters near the Syrian-Turkish border on Tuesday morning. Turkey claims the Russian aircraft violated its airspace, while Russian officials say the shooting down happened over Syrian territory.
Thank you Shabnam, CB Sashenka, M., Yucki, Wrath of Khan, and more.
Readers of Vlad may remember that some months ago on May 29, 2015, a very important story broke in Turkish news, and we at VladTepeBlog were the first English speaking publication I am aware of, that translated and republished the story. Thanks to Shabnam, an expat Iranian human rights activist and others she knew in Turkey, we were able to get that story out I think the same day including the video at that site and more.
This update is to let readers know that as of 1 hour ago, approximately 14:30 EST, the author of the story in Hurriyenet Daily news was arrested by the Turkish government for that exact story.
Here is the video from that story. The Turkish original story has been removed but for those who want it, I backed up the entire page and might restore it.
Again, here is the link to our translation
This is on Dispatches Channel 4 which Buck posted the link to this morning but needs a VPN to watch outside of the UK and even that is iffy. But thanks to Liberty Dk, here is a link to the whole documentary on Youtube
In March 2014, Oz-Rita and our team translated and subtitled this video about a man who turned out to be the planner, (who the mass media pins the adjective of ‘mastermind’) of the Paris attacks of Nov. 15 – 2015 He describes the coming formation of the Caliphate and more. He was well known and broadcast across Europe more than a year and a half before this attack. This is a newly uploaded copy of that video we did in March 2014 as the channel we had posted it on, has been taken down. Thank you again Oz-Rita for doing this translation, and reminding me we did it. Turns out that it is of some significance.
A couple of things that should be known to give context to this video.
The chopped Santa hat seen in this video can only be worn by a person who is a graduate of the most prestigious institute of Islamic learning in the world by literally an order of magnitude. To paraphrase Stephen Coughlin on this, where Al_Azhar is #1, there is no number 2 and so on down to about 12 where the next one is. Al-Azhar is essentially Oxford, Yale, Harvard and the Vatican rolled into one.
So when you see a Santa-parae like this one protesting in front of the Russian embassy, presumably about the bombing of the Islamic State, it becomes rather more difficult to claim that the Islamic State is not truly Islamic. Now I do not speak Arabic so its possible that in fact they are protesting the treatment of lab animals or GMO foods in Russia, but I would wager that when Rita Malek gets back to me on this, they are protesting Russian expeditions against IS targets.
It is also possible that judging by the signage they are spinning it as Russia supporting Assad and that is killing muslims or whatnot. But that is onion paper at best as many islamic groups have already sent out instructions for muslims to start attacking targets in Russia as a response to bombing IS targets.
This is all pretty straightforward. The first person they interview basically explains all anyone should need to know. I believe him that the IS is planning major attacks soon in Europe and North America.
