ISIS leader dubbed ‘Jabba the Jihadi’ captured in Iraq

He put the fat in fatwa.

A morbidly obese ISIS fanatic dubbed “Jabba the Jihadi” has been captured by Iraqi forces — who loaded him onto a flatbed truck because he couldn’t fit in a police car.

The 560-pound mufti Abu Abdul Bari, also known as Shifa al-Nima, was nabbed Thursday by an elite SWAT team of the Nineveh regiment in the city of Mosul, according to Stars and Stripes.

The jumbo jihadist was known for “provocative speeches against the security forces” and is considered one of the top leaders of “ISIS gangs,” Iraqi security officials said in a statement.

Bari issued religious decrees — or fatwas — ordering the execution of scholars and clerics who refused to pledge allegiance to ISIS when the terror group occupied the city, the statement said.

During the heyday of the group’s self-styled caliphate in 2014, he also ordered the destruction of a mosque built at the site believed to be the burial place of the biblical prophet Jonah, who once had a famous encounter with a whale.

Maajid Nawaz, founder of the London-based anti-extremism think Quilliam, also shared images of the heavyweight’s arrest.

There are moments where Twitter can be the most entertaining thing in the world....

This was one of those. I laughed more than I had in months reviewing the twitter threads on Jabba the Jihadi made me laugh so hard my wife and kids thought I had lost it.

Sounds like a real dud-muffin.

Think if how much food will suddenly become available to the average Iraqi once justice is served.

You don’t get to that point overnight

I was actually kind of struck by this- in as much as if you’re a terrorist and have US MARINES bearing down on you.

you’re going to have to be able to skedaddle ! rather quickly sometimes I would think. Right ?

At least he’s not going out and doing stuff. Then again their “higher ups” never put themselves directly in danger.

“Is there some reason you’re posting week old articles that have already been posted on this forum twice???”

I was wondering the same thing.
