IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi dead: reports

Self-proclaimed caliph of IS, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has died, according to Radio Iran.

The reports follow news that the leader was severely wounded in US-led strikes at the al-Baaj district of Ninevehin in March. It was then reported by the Guardian that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was not in day-to-day management of IS, and that he was slowly recovering.

This news is only just being reported, and the Times of India picked it up saying its source is Radio Iran. So please take this with a grain of salt.

Too bad it didn't take a year or two and die of flesh eating virus!

So ISIS is no longer necessary, then?

What new enemy will we fabricate next?

Lets have a contest. It has to be catchy sounding.

Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war.

I think the leader is not dead but one of his many look alikes is.

Lets see if he gets OBLs "burial at sea"
I somehow doubt this guy was ever at the helm of the group known as IS. Kinda like OBL no body no death.

Fingers crossed!

No Caliph no Caliphate.
If this is true they will be announcing a new Caliph soon or they will fall apart.
Maybe the West should give the title back to the Turks so these other fringe groups cannot lay claim to it again.

Doesn't make a difference. If he is dead, it will make him into a martyr and a new guy will step up.

What? Another Islamatard with delusions of grandeur is dead? Say it ain't so? Happy dance if so...

The head of the Islamic State is reportedly injured so badly he can barely move, Kareem Shaheen at The Guardian reports. "Sources tell us Baghdadi is still alive, but still unable to move due to spinal injury sustained in the March air strike," Shaheen tweeted.

Hopefully it's true, and karma will make that criminal suffer before he leaves to get judged by the his creator.

Ummm, is there any proof? Isn't this the same dude who was wearing an expensive watch at his declaration of becoming the fundamentalist "Caliph"? This sounds more like a "job well done, now move on to your next assignment".

A few months ago I was joking with my friends that there will be a new "big bad evil" before the 2016 elections. It will either be something like a super deadly "Egyptian Frog Flu" (I made that up); a new group "OSIRIS" which will be like isis on steroids; or some new leader Umboogoo Khan, a "prophesized" descendant of Genghis Khan. I made all of those up because of the ridiculous 2012 Mayan & Rapture rumors, and the 2014 Ebola debacle. But people are so gullible, they'll believe anything if it's foreign & sounds dangerous.

But now I'm going to have to take this seriously. I'll be curious to see what new black ops group or BS scare tactic they use over the next 12 months, now that they've deactivated their latest puppet.

Wonder if they droned his funeral.

A few months back he was supposed to have been seriously wounded in a strike,and the IS head honchos were apparently getting ready to install a new caliph.
If he has died for real,then we will probably hear reports that "whoever" is the newly proclaimed caliph.

Sadly this cancer won't just go away because their first leader died(if he is in fact dead).

I wonder if they will choose someone else who was previously MK ultra'd-cough I mean-incarcerated by the USA,like Al bahgdadi was(IMO).

Well I wouldn't be unhappy at news of his death.But I'll need a better source before cracking the bubbly.

Hopefully this is true...
Couldn't happen to a nicer person.

Hell has a new addition for the Angel Malik to torture.

Ahhh my favorite kind of terrorist, a dead one...... Enjoy hell! I hear its beginning to cook this time of year!

Why am I thinking the calf guy is supposed to be born not appointed?? kinda loses it's power just to appoint another sucker to die!

ISIS Appoints A Former Physics Teacher As The New Caliph

Abu Alaa Afri is the new stand-in leader. “After Baghdadi’s wounding, he [Afri] has begun to head up Daesh [arabic term for ISIS] with the help of officials responsible for other portfolios,” He will be the leader of Daesh if Baghdadi dies.” said Hashimi.
