Video - The Islamic State threatens to "liberate" Istanbul,

Here is the second part in which Dairieh meets an ISIL member from Belgium who works to indoctrinate some of the youngest members of the group.

The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), who now refer to themselves as the Islamic State (IS), has threatened to "liberate" Istanbul, while accusing Turkey of cutting off the flow of the Euphrates River, drying up northern Syria, including Raqqa, "the capital of the Islamic State."

"I pray to God that the apostate [Turkish] government reconsiders its decisions because if they don't reconsider it now, we'll reconsider it for them by liberating Istanbul," ISIL's "press officer" Abu Mosa told Vice News in Raqqa.

When reporter Medyan Dairieh asked if this is a threat, Abu Mosa answered: "Yes, it is a clear threat. If they don't open [the Atatürk dam in Turkey that diverts the water], we'll unblock it from Istanbul."Read the full story here.
