Islamic state media outlet confirms "Jihadi John" is dead

DUBAI, Jan 19 (Reuters) - A media outlet associated with Islamic State on Tuesday released a eulogy for "Jihadi John," a member of the militant group who gained notoriety for his filmed execution of hostages, the monitoring organization SITE reported.

The militant was identified as Mohammed Emwazi, a British citizen of Arab origin. The U.S. military said in November it was "reasonably certain" it had killed him in a drone strike.

Emwazi was described in Islamic State's Dabiq magazine by his nickname "Abu Muharib al-Muhajir."

"On Thursday, the 29th of Muharram, 1437 (Nov. 12, 2015), Ab Muhrib finally achieved shahdah (martyrdom) for the cause of Allah, which he had sought for so long, as the car he was in was targeted in a strike by an unmanned drone in the city of Raqqah, destroying the car and killing him instantly," Dabiq said.

Hand over a finger and a foot and let the West do DNA testing.

Well, instead of struggling to “finally achieve shahdad) they could all just stand together in a stadium at one time. That would make it easier.

Only now do I believe J.J. is dead. I have very little faith in the O-Gang reporting the true story, when it may cast the president in a less than complimentary light.

Guess he’s chatting with Allah saying like “Was I wrong to do that?”

No man is an island,
Entire of itself,
Every man is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manor of thy friend's
Or of thine own were:
Any man's death diminishes me,1
Because I am involved in mankind,
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls;
It tolls for thee.

John Donne
