Fears exist that the savage militant group ISIS may soon obtain a weapon of mass destruction from Pakistan and smuggle it into the US, according to reports.

The latest publication of the propaganda magazine Dabiq claims that the group has threatened the modern world that it would intensify its brand of violence in less than 12 months, which in any case, has been growing at an alarming rate, the Daily Star reported.

In an article entitled 'The Perfect Storm', it is claimed ISIS has billions of dollars in the bank and describes a 'hypothetical operation' which involves it buying a nuclear bomb 'through weapons dealers with links to corrupt officials' in Pakistan, reported Daily Mail.

The article describes how the device could be smuggled into North America overland and by boat.

Although it admitted that the situation was "far-fetched," it warned that even if not a nuke, they could pop up about a few thousand tons of ammonium nitrate explosives.

Recently, a shocking video has surfaced showing ISIS thugs using a Bazooka to execute a captured prisoner. Pictures have also emerged from inside Palmyra, Syria, of decapitated bodies lying strewn in the streets.

A day ago, Islamic State seized full control of the historic city of Palmyra in central Syria, just days after it captured a provincial capital in neighbouring Iraq, suggesting momentum is building for the ultra-hardline group.

Recentrly, ISIS also issued an audio recording that it said was by its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, calling on supporters around the world to join the fight in Syria and Iraq or to take up arms wherever they live.

In the recording, issued by the group's al-Furqan media outlet and posted on several websites, a voice sounding like Baghdadi's says: "There is no excuse for any Muslim not to migrate to the Islamic State.

"Joining (its fight) is a duty on every Muslim. We are calling on you either join or carry weapons (to fight) wherever you are," the message said.
