A German rapper who converted to Islam and joined jihadist rebels fighting to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad has been injured in an air strike, a jihadist group said on Monday.

The jihadist, formerly known as Deso Dogg, was hiding at an anti-regime fighter's house that "was hit by an air strike and helicopter shelling", said a statement posted on Facebook by a group that identified itself as the People of Abraham.

As a result of the strikes, Deso Dogg or "Abu Talha al-Almani and several other brothers were injured, while several Muslim children were killed", the statement said.

He was turning his life around. Had his music career and everything,

Oh wait. Rap isn’t music.

A German or a Muslim immigrant who might have been born in Germany?

“Jihadist rebels” in Syria? But I thought they were “freedom fighters”.....

Deso Dogg, was hiding at an anti-regime fighter's house that "was hit by an air strike and helicopter shelling",

Don't know what this does for his street cred. How many times "getting shot" does receiving an air strike and helicopter shelling count for?

I’ve always wanted to learn Austrian. Is there a Rosetta-Stone-app for that?
