If they did kill him.

That is no loss to the human race.

U.S. can't confirm reports Islamic State leader killed

The U.S.-led coalition fighting the Islamic State said Tuesday it could not confirm reports that Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been killed in a U.S. airstrike.

Army Col. Chris Garver, the top spokesman for the coalition in Iraq, told USA TODAY he was aware of the reports from the Islamic news agency AlhlulBayt and other sources. Garver said that, if true, al-Baghdadi's death would be welcome news but would not signal the end of the fight against the terrorist group.

AlhlulBayt reported the militant leader was killed Sunday in an airstrike in the Raqqa, Syria, the Islamic State's de facto capital.



I wonder if they would rather keep a lid on it, at least for a little while, given the Orlando incident and the 1000+ active terror investigations currently being handled by the FBI?

If random boy stole a car in LA, and the cops knew where he was...how often do they get away?

So, isn't a target like Baghdadi basically available for disposal anytime?

What a tongue-twister of a name!

The new leader of Islamic State has been revealed as Iraqi Amir Mohammed Abdul Rahman al-Mawli al-Salbi.

Two intelligence services said al-Salbi took over from Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi after the terrorist blew himself up in October.

Al-Salbi, who helped found ISIS, brought in brutal Sharia Law in Iraq and Syria, led the enslavement of the Yazidi and has operated across the world.
