ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is at death’s door after being poisoned by a mystery assassin in Iraq, it has been reported.
Three other senior jihadis were also afflicted by the toxin in Al-Ba’aj, southwest of Mosul – Islamic State’s biggest city in Iraq. The four have reportedly been rushed for treatment at a secret location.
FARS, an Iranian news agency, say that ISIS is now arresting several suspects to find out who has struck a blow at the terror group’s self-proclaimed ‘Caliph’.
The evil Iraqi cleric is known to have been personally responsible for the rape and torture of US aid worker Kayla Mueller.
Mueller was killed during a Jordanian airstrike on ISIS in February last year.
Baghdadi was previously held by US forces in the city of Fallujah in 2004 during their invasion of the country.
Baghdadi was released within six months and would go on to be declared the leader of ISIS – then known as al-Qaeda in Iraq – in 2010.
If the reports are true, it would not the first time al-Baghdadi has been injured. In 2015 he was severely hurt in a US airstrike in Syria.
In June of this year, rumours surfaced that he was killed by a US airstrike in ISIS 'capital' Raqqa, but they were later found to be false.

Hope they used ricin or another with no known antidote.
Hope he dies a slow and painful death.
Quick Mart gas station sushi will do that.
Islam is like Black lies matter, they will protest by killing each other after burning down their own town.
I wonder what the poison was. Given that he’s allegedly still alive, I’m hoping for something like the Deathcap Mushroom. Even the classic “food taster” wouldn’t do any good because the symptoms are delayed so long.

The symptoms are slow to show themselves and often do not appear until 10-16 hours (or even longer) after eating.
The timing given above is approximate, for much depends on the general health of the individual and how much they’ve eaten. For example, if you’ve eaten a large meal of Deathcaps the symptoms could start as early as 6 hours after the meal.
The first symptoms are stomach pains, vomiting and diarrhoea. These may continue for a day or two, after which there is typically an easing of symptoms and apparent recovery. The “recovery” period may last for 2 or 3 days. Then the terminal phase of 3-5 days starts with the re-occurrence of stomach pains, vomiting and diarrhoea - accompanied by jaundice. Without effective, early medical intervention, coma and death occur between one and two weeks after eating the mushroom. Death is caused by liver failure, often accompanied by kidney failure.
bummer.
