ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead claims Radio Iran
India Today ^ | 04/27/2015

ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has according to Radio Iran died after suffering serious injuries in an air strike in western Iraq.

Media reports on April 21 said Baghdadi suffered life-threatening injuries during the attack by the US-led coalition in March.

Baghdadi's injuries led to urgent meetings of Islamic State leaders, who initially believed he would die and made plans to name a new leader, said media reports.

In October 2011, the US State Department had listed Baghdadi as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist, and announced a reward of up to USD 10 million for information leading to his capture or death.

Baghdadi, who is known to his supporters as Amir al-Mu'minin or Caliph Ibrahim, lead the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) an Islamic extremist group in western Iraq, Libya, northeast Nigeria and Syria self-styled as the 'Islamic State'.

The strange thing is this — no western news agency reports this.

Almost all reports of Al Baghdadi’s demise comes from the middle east or India.

Right. We’ve heard this before...what is this one, the 5th time? When these foreign “media” produce definitive pics like our guys did of Saddam Hussein and his nutjob sons, then they might be more believable.

He’ll at least send some Christians and planeloads of arms and ammo.

Happy dead terrorists day!

Now Obama will kill 17 more seals or release some more terrorist leaders.

Sad, all he ever wanted was a good job to support his lovely wives & not be persecuted for his religious beliefs.

Well, he has been killed twice now. One more time and he will probably stay dead.

If Marie Harfism confirms this in her press conference today then believe the opposite.

Possible. If he’s really dead John McCain will be very saddened.
