“he (Baghdadi) is probably safe in Turkey in Erdogans palace sipping coffee...”
It sure looks like much of the leadership of ISIS has relocated to Turkey (e.g. all five of those recently captured).
The article points out that their ideology requires the leader to stay with his flag, controlling territory, to maintain their legal status as a Caliphate, and Baghdadi as Caliph. So he might go down with the ship, or wait to slip into Turkey at the last minute (which is about now).
