ISIS Leader "Critically Wounded" In US Airstrikes, Al Arabiya Reports

While US authorities noted the airstrikes on a 10-vehicle convoy near Mosul, they could not confirm the identity of those killed.

  • *U.S. SAYS IT DESTROYED CONVOY OF 10 ISIS ARMED TRUCKS

  • *U.S. CAN'T CONFIRM IF ISIS LEADER ABU BAKR AL-BAGHDADI THERE
  • *U.S. SAYS IT HAS NO MORE INFORMATION RIGHT NOW ON AIRSTRIKES

 

As Reuters reports,

U.S. air strikes destroyed a moving, 10-vehicle Islamic State convoy near the Iraqi city of Mosul but U.S. officials said on Saturday it was unclear whether the group's top commander Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was present at the time.

 

Colonel Patrick Ryder, a spokesman at the U.S. military's Central Command, said the U.S. military had reason to believe that the convoy was the product of a gathering of Islamic State leaders. The convoy consisted of 10 Islamic State armed trucks.

But now, Al Arabiya reports

As Al-Arabiya reports,

The leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was “critically wounded” when a U.S.-led air strike targeted the western Iraqi border town of al-Qaim, tribal sources told Al Arabiya News Channel on Saturday.

 

U.S. Central Command confirmed in a statement that U.S.-led air strikes targeted ISIS leaders near their northern Iraqi hub of Mosul late Friday, without confirming whether Baghdadi was killed, AFP reported.

 

“This strike demonstrates the pressure we continue to place on the ISIL [ISIS] terrorist network and the group's increasingly limited freedom to maneuver, communicate and command," US Central Command said.

 

Anbar province MP Mohammad al-Karbuli told Al Arabiya News Channel that coalition aircraft had targeted a gathering of ISIS leaders in al-Qaim that led to the killing of tens of people and wounded.

 

Karbuli said chaos ensued the air raid with ISIS members scrambling to transport their wounded to al-Qaim hospital which was overwhelmed with the number of patients.

 

...

U.S. officials would not confirm or deny whether Baghdadi, the group's overall leader, had been targeted, the agency said.

Isn't it clear by now that this is all theater, and that the show  must never close? Our policies keep regenerating enemies because that is exactly what we want. No more "enemies" and no more Military-Industrial Complex and gun camera video.

We have found pretexts for killing large numbers of foreigners, directly and by proxy, regularly ever since WWII. We are addicted to it. The public craves it. The profiteers need it. The politicians give it to them. We won't stop until some powerful adversary makes us stop.

I love Arab terrorists. These stupid fucks still drive around in convoys. Join up a big line of cars and trucks and race down the roads thinking, "boy are we safe in this convoy". With zero intelligence, zero radar warning systems, and zero brains, these fucking chumps provide the NATO Air Forces a clear sign saying, "here we are, in our convoy." Even NATO high command can figure out to bomb these convoys! Like, if you are a top commander, did you ever think of a single car of no special importance mixed in with regular traffic might work better? Too fucking stupid.

When any North American Army ever came to Texas,

Southern or Northern or Mexican.

They were shocked by the Warriorarity of

The Texas Rangers.

And their demeanor.

And their fucking bad ass style.

And they listed the number of bullet and arrow wounds in the old newspaper when they died.

The Texas Brigade was indeed a force to be reckoned with.

Personally, I am partial to Hill's observation that with Confederate infantry and Federal artillery, he could bid defiance to the world.

So it has proved to be and so may it ever continue to be.

Incidentally, the first American flag to fly from the top of Mt. Suribachi on Iwo Jima was the Stars and Bars-- a flag carried in the knapsack of one of the first Marines to reach the top. Deo Vindice to you, Texas.

Wow. Suribachi story is new to me.

Texas boys were from my family from here and from TN.

My 19 year old cuz went down with Davy C.

Died at the end, from the barricaded artillery positions in the sleeping quarters.

They blasted the doors open with our own TX/TN cannons.

We crawled back up from the blast and died like Anglos.

One last thrust.

Mr Hill and maybe most of the Texas Patriots were from this side of the river. And from my side of the river.

All of you disinterested parties should at least check out Thomas Jefferson Green's bio.

Fairly typical. For local gents.

I always wonder where you Mom’s Basement Dwellers (or the figurative emotional equivalent) get all your information.  It is a constant source of amusement that those of you so adamantly opposed to, and skeptical of, anything that comes from what you call the Lame Stream Media would be so open and accepting of anything that comes from the Streaming Lame Media.  That you call it “research” is just too funny.

This internet thing is quite something.  First, it has demonstrated just how many addled brains are out there in the public.  In the past, we all had seen poor souls, constantly fighting internal demons, walking down the street barking at the moon.  We never knew the extent of that affliction, since many suffering from it never dared, or were not allowed, to go outside.  With the ease and ubiquitous-ness of internet connectivity, the shut-ins now have a forum, and in what should probably be called a public service, virtual Day Care Centers, such as the comments section of blogs and websites, have risen up to offer a sense of community and comfort to the forlorn.  Some entrepreneurial types have even found a way to monetize the Wingnut Demographic in the same way Mark Zuckerberg found a way to monetize the New Narcissism.  Capitalism is both grand and resourceful.  HBS should do a case study.

A generous soul might cut some slack and say that some internet-generated opinions are simply the result of naivete and lack of access.  Those susceptible to this have had their information filter adulterated by Hollywood B-fare and pulp fiction.  A subset of this group is the ones suffering from a kind of Downing Effect with regard to “awareness” and what they call “awake”.  This group is drawn toward the negative like a moth to flame.  Negative, to them, is prima facie evidence of truth.  They have their own jargon, the utterance of which seems almost prayer-like.  Every event anywhere in the world is categorized.  Sometimes it is a “false flag”.  Other times it is a “limited hangout”.   For others it is “psy-op” or “black-op”, the latter orchestrated by some combination of alphabet agencies, who apparently exist solely to further the aims of a tiny elite and rattle the cages of the addled demographic.  The key to understanding this group is to appreciate that in their world nothing falls out of one of these categories, and that no citizen anywhere---save for the addled brain demographic---has anything approaching free will.  The seven billion are tabula rasas, just waiting to be told what to think and how to act by what must be an uber-evolved minority of malevolent superhumans, most of whom bear some relation to the Rothschilds.  An outsider has to wonder what paradise the Earth must have been before the arrival of the alphabets, or at least before the “Red Shield”.  All of those history books which question this previous earthly Eden must be psy-ops.

The internet has also given us a new set of laws and rules regarding information and data.  Some anthropologist will eventually collate and put a name to these rules.  The first one---and this is for now just an empirical observation---is this:  A thrice-linked lie becomes fact.  (Some Internet Gurus have made a good living pulling stuff straight from where the sun don't shine.)  This differs ever so slightly from the second empirical observation, which is this:  A twice-linked mined and spun quote becomes fact.  This website, incidentally, has a master of this trick amongst its Guest Contributors.  The third is that a Dead Link is no cause for concern, because just the fact that it was linked means it has served its purpose, even if the link never existed.  Want proof?  Check this out:  www.deadlinksdonotmatter.com.

Also amusing is the vetting process to which “sources” are subject.  There are a few prime examples.  Julian Assange and Edward Snowden began as heroes, but quickly fell into the category of “limited hangouts”, because they did not produce “proof” of events believed by the Wingnut Demographic to be factual.  It never occurs to this demographic that such “proof” may not exist because the events never happened.  Wingnut Logic is often based on a false set of assumptions.  Sadly, the public good achieved by folks like Assange and Snowden goes unappreciated.

On this site, the most curious development has been the emergence of the Putiporn Generation.  Even the casual reader of the site notices it, and also notices how the site has re-invented itself in order to cater to it.  Though site hits have fallen faster that CNBC viewership, it seems the targeted ad revenue pays a premium, so net-net it must be a gain.   This generation has an anthem, by the way, though it has yet to be embraced by all.  The song was originally released by a one shot wonder that went by the name of Right Said Fred.  The song can be found here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39YUXIKrOFk

I expect that at the next Olympics, should any of the beatified ruler’s citizens win a medal, this will be played as the victor takes the Award Platform.  Should the winner be the saint’s new ribbon-twirling strumpet, the celebration would be nearly orgasmic.  Hopefully use of the anthem will generate some royalty payments for that one shot wonder group.  Again, capitalism is grand.

Chindit, you know I like your dissection and flowery brio so I will engage. The Putin love has gone hockey stick, but I think that's due to a general loathing of our own leaders and the skulduggery they foment. I agree that not everything is a false flag and is what is at face value, but there have been a lot of conspiracy theories that have proven worth a second look. Too many to list, but a critical mind must be employed. Look at the recent "Tanks roll into Ukraine"....they plaster that headline, yet buried below in the script is an "official" saying something like "should this be confirmed"...why is it published then? This does two things. It gives credence to the conspiratorial beliefs of your verbosely descriptive "basement dweller" and also minimizes the legitimacy of the media group. I think you're half right. My fear is that ZH will become an echo chamber and the critical minds that enticed me here years ago will be overwhelmed. BTW, "ubiquity" was the word you were looking for...it would have rolled off onto connectivity wonderfully. The paucity of opprobrious posters here is growing.

The NWO agenda is going off the rails when they drag FullO'Chindit out of the bar at Raffles, give him a talking points sheet and tell him to put on his `intellectual role' and go speak down to the participants in the various anti-NWO agenda web sites. Quite pathetic what one must do when they are hard up for cash I guess. Perhaps your pension from the FT is at risk.

Oh, and tell us all "basement dwellers" another tale of when your daddy was ambassador to Kuziamfulloshitostan. Those are always most humerous chum.

It could be true.

 

On the other hand, it would be greatly to the advantage of ISIS were their enemy to believe that certain people were dead.

 

Whether ISIS is a real Jihadist movement, or a functional arm of the CIA/Mossad ... it would benefit from having operatives "killed" and thus freed to move about with less scrutiny.

 

I treat every report of a "dead Jihadist" with a pinch of salt. I fully expect that some of these guys will re-surface with different identities.

This rewminds me of a few years ago when every 3 weeks the press announced America had killed Al-Qaeda's Number two man.
He was pretty tough. He got killed about 23 times.

The leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was “critically wounded” when a U.S.-led air strike targeted the western Iraqi border town of al-Qaim,

 

Abu Bakr we hardly knew ye.  

And now we are told you have joined Lieutenant Kije and Mr Bunbury in ficticous heaven.

 

Did you accomplish everything your creators set out for you?

 

Allah speed, Abu Bakr.  Enjoy all your virgins in your imaginary paradise.
