Alleged ISIL leader appears in video footage
[WARNING: GRAPHIC PHOTOS] The world's most evil man has reportedly been wiped out in the Syrian city of Al-Raqqah — courtesy of a U.S. air strike! The death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi reportedly happened on Sunday, just as the world was still mourning the murders of
49 innocent Americans by ISIS operative
Omar Mateen. Initial reports by Arabic news services said that Baghdadi had only been wounded in the aftermath of the attack by coalition forces on one of the outfit’s command headquarters.

Alleged ISIL leader appears in video footage
Baghdadi leads a depraved band of maniacs who claim to be descended from the Prophet Muhammad. He had once taught at Tikrit University, and is said to have a PhD in Islamic Studies. The educated madman joined the insurgencies that rose after America invaded Iraq in 2003, but rejected any alliance to al-Qaeda. That notorious group wanted Baghdadi to leave Syria to other terrorist organizations.

TURKEY-SYRIA-CONFLICT-EXPLOSION
Instead, Baghdadi oversaw the rise of ISIS — originally rejected as a threat by President Obama, who used a basketball metaphor to mock them as a "junior varsity team" compared to the pros of al-Qaeda. Baghdadi soon humiliated the President with a reign of terror in recent years that has shocked even their fellow jihadists.

SYRIA-CONFLICT
ISIS once executed 13 teenage boys for the crime of watching a soccer game on television. The group also routinely executes their own soldiers who are appalled by Baghdadi's blood lust — and have also shocked Muslims by sending suicide bombers into mosques to kill Shiites, who they consider to be of a lesser faith.

YEMEN-CONFLICT-ATTACK
It has become a common sight for the extremist Islamics to throw gay men off the roof of buildings — in the kind of savage act that inspired Mateen to spray a Florida gay nightclub
with deadly gunfire. ISIS has also taken over many territories where the women were either forced to marry the group's soldiers, or be sold into sexual slavery.

SYRIA-CONFLICT
ISIS has also horrified Mulsims by destroying priceless artifacts while looting conquered cities, and stealing away children as young as six years old to use as human shields, spies, and even as a source for blood transfusions when their forces are wounded!

Execution of Steven Sotloff.
The world was shocked in Janury 2015 when Baghdadi's forces put a captured pilot from Jordan in a cage before setting him afire. ISIS proudly videotaped the events as part of Baghdadi's desire to show the world his merciless leadership.

IRAQ-DEMO
Coalition authorities insisted that there was “nothing to confirm this at this time.” They also noted that Baghdadi's death had been reported before. The madman — seen here having his occupancies protested by Iranians — had supposedly suffered serious spinal injuries after an airstrike on March 18, 2015. At the time, it was hoped that his injuries would require him to give up control of the hated militant group.
