An alleged policy plan of the Islamic State outlines some chilling, if unrealistic, plots of the would-be terrorist state, including bribing Russia with access to oilfields in exchange for nuclear technology, and digging a canal across the UAE.The documentreportedby Britains Sunday Times is believed to have been written by Abdullah Ahmed Meshedani, a member of the highly secretive six-man war cabinet of the terrorist group, which wants to build an Islamist state, or caliphate, in parts of Iraq and Syria.
It was captured by Iraqi special forces during a March raid on the home of a senior Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS) member and confirmed as authentic by Western security officials.
The 70-point plan provides an insight into the grandiose, if somewhat far-fetched, strategy aimed at undermining Shiites in the Arab world and Iran as that branch of Islams powerhouse nation.
One of the goals listed in the documents is to offer Russia access to oilfields in Iraqs Anbar province in exchange for Moscow severing ties with Tehran and sharing secret nuclear technology known to Iran with the IS.
The bribe is also meant to convince the Russian government to stop supporting Syrian President Bashar Assad and ally with Sunni states of the Arab Gulf in their confrontation with Iran and Syria.

Weve known and feared for some time that they want to obtain chemical and nuclear weapons So when you place their future aspirations against their current achievements, this document which purports to be the groups manifesto does stop and make you think.
Another bizarre plan to undermine Irans powerbase involves building a canal across the United Arab Emirates like the Panama Canal in Americas hands, which would allow oil tankers travel to and from the Persian Gulf, bypassing the Iran-controlled Strait of Hormuz, the newspaper reports.
In addition to the Iranian nuclear program, the document suggests hitting its caviar industrybecause it is a national treasure,and urges to flood the carpet market with products of Afghan carpet makers to cripple their Iranian competitors.
The IS also envisions itself as a regional naval power, with bases built on islands bought from Yemen and the Comoros.
Domestically, the self-proclaimed state has a program of ethnic cleansing, eugenic programs, assassinations of defectors including IS officials and other brutal policies that would ensure a population united in purpose, according to the document.

In the long run, the IS wants Sunnis from Pakistan and Syria to migrate to lands with mixed Sunni-Shiite populations,marry early and have many children,who would become the core of a future extermination campaign to wipe out Shiites in the Gulf.
The ISare not focused on merely supporting themselves with ransom activities and oil theft, they know that in order to survive they have to generate income in legitimate ways,Veryan Khan, director of Terrorism Research & Analysis Consortium, a US-based terrorism monitoring group, told the Sunday Times.
I am convinced this was passed out among senior personnel of Islamic State,she added.To fully explain a 100-year plan is completely unique they are proving that they are visionaries to the rest of the senior staff.
