ISIL chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi killed in Syria, confirms Trump
The US president says al-Baghdadi killed himself by exploding a suicide 'vest' during the US operation in Syria's Idlib.
US President Donald Trump has confirmed the death of ISIL leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in a military operation in Syria's northwest Idlib province, saying the US had "brought the world's number one terrorist leader to justice".
Trump said on Sunday the leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) died after running into a dead-end tunnel in the village of Barisha and ignited an explosive vest during the raid, killing himself along with three of his children. A large number of his companions were also killed in the raid, Trump said during the address at the White House.
Al-Baghdadi's 11 other children were "uninjured", Trump said, and were left under the care of an unnamed third party.
Speaking from the White House's Diplomatic Room, the president said that al-Baghdadi spent his last moments in utter fear and claims that he was "whimpering" and died as "a coward, running and crying".
According to him, the US received immediate and positive identification on the body after an on site DNA test, and that the world is now a much safer place.
"His body was mutilated by the blast. The tunnel had caved in on it in addition. But test results gave certain immediate and totally positive identification. It was him," Trump told reporters.
"The thug who tried so hard to intimidate others spent his last moments in utter fear, in total panic and dread, terrified of the American forces bearing down on him," Trump continued.
No US troops were injured in the operation, the US president said, adding that sensitive information was taken from the compound by US Special Forces.
Trump also warned that al-Baghdadi's successors are now in US "sights".

US withdrawal from Syria Late on Saturday, Trump had teased a major announcement, posting on Twitter that "Something very big has just happened!" By the morning, he was thanking Russia, Turkey, Syria and Iraq, as well as Kurdish fighters in Syria for their support.
The death of al-Baghdadi marks a significant foreign policy success for Trump, coming at one of the lowest points in his presidency as he is mired in impeachment proceedings.
Commenting on Trump's choice of words, Marwan Bishara, Al Jazeera's senior political analyst, said it was important for the US president to "make clear" to those who follow or might support ISIL that al-Baghdadi is a coward.
"It's a way not only to kill al-Baghdadi physically, but also in terms of whatever memory there is of him … to kill his character," he said.
"Clearly he's going to be selling this point, about how he assassinated and ended the Islamic State and revived the American economy," Bishara noted, referring to the upcoming US elections.
ISIL, which at one point controlled swathes of Syria and Iraq, committed atrocities against religious minorities and were behind attacks in several countries.
Al-Baghdadi became arguably the world's most wanted man, and had a $25m US bounty on his head.
He kept a low public profile in recent years, releasing only sporadic audio recordings. In a recording just last month, he called on members of the group to do all they could to free ISIL prisoners and women held in jails and camps.
That purported audio was his first public statement since last April, when he appeared in a video for the first time in five years. The video included images of the ISIL leader sitting in a white room with three others as he praised Easter Day bombings that killed more than 250 people in Sri Lanka.
Trump's latest announcement comes as the US leader has been on the receiving end of bipartisan criticism in Washington following the recent pullback of US troops from northeastern Syria.
Critics fear that the decision will allow ISIL to regain strength after it had lost vast stretches of territory it had once controlled. But Trump reiterated his position and said his administration was not considering US withdrawal from Syria.
The Turkish Defence ministry said in a statement that Turkey and the US had exchanged information on a US-led raid in Syria's Idlib.
Out of ten football players that took the penalty kicks, only your “son” lost his kick.
So the coach should select him for the World Cup for him to affect the team with his misfortune again abi?
There are serious lobbying and bribery for selection into the teams representing us, but this man’s case is another case of substituting misfortune for money.

"Hi sweetheart, I am not your father, but I have been getting all your messages for the past 4 years," replied Brad, a man who lost his daughter in 2014.
23-year-old Chastity Patterson of Newport, Arkansas, lost her father four years ago. She'd been keeping his memory alive through texting his number each night, updating him on the ins and outs of her day, hoping he was listening.
On Thursday, October 25, the day before the fourth anniversary of her father's death, she recounted her year.
"Hey Dad it's ME," Chastity said."Tomorrow is going to be a tough day again."
She talked about how she beat cancer and how she hadn't gotten sick since her father's passing."I promised you I would take better care of myself!"She recapped how she graduated college with honors, fell in love and got her heartbroken, but she made it through a stronger woman.
This year, she got a reply.
"Hi sweetheart, I am not your father, but I have been getting all your messages for the past 4 years,"the message read.
He introduced himself as Brad and told Chastity how he lost his daughter in a car wreck in 2014."Your messages have kept me alive."
"I'm sorry you lost someone so close to you, but I have listened to you over the years," Brad continued.
"You are an extraordinary woman and I wish my daughter would have become the woman you are." Chastity posted the conversation to Facebook, her caption saying she can now let her father rest.
RealLordZeus: It is now obvious you are not mature enough to engage in a discussion 1. You purposely choose to ignore my last question if to consider the Bible a sham because it is written about 2000 years ago 2. You quote an Hadith out of context but you termed a full report as false because it is written by historians 3. Your source of alleged masturbations instructions, you failed to provide 4. Your evidence for the six days wars was historical archived materials which I agree with but you don't want to accept another historical archived materials because it contradict your purpose.
Like I said earlier, I don't have control over your heart but stop making a fool of yourself in public, no matter how clear the truth is, you won't be able to understand. You are no more longer worthy of my time as it's very clear you are incapable of sensible opinions! Your view and experience of life is very limited.
In conclusion, I will leave you with the whole references about the Wikipedia article on the Khaybar battle. If you can like, you can discredit all those authors, call them dimwits, they include Muslims, Christian and Atheists. Last word of advice, Try to live a Christ-like life and see how your life will be.
You were right about the error in date, that was a slip, my mind was on the bible dating. Thanks for the correction
Regards
References as promised, I apologize to other readers for bringing such unnecessary texts here but I will like him to discredit all this authors, calling them dim wits as usual

RealLordZeus: Your own source about The Six days war of 1967 was a blog compiled in the 2000s, A 2017 article written by a journalist was right on a war that happened 50 years ago but you rejected the works of known historians including a properly referenced Wikipedia article. Your case is somehow. You ask me to provide a written article by the Companions about the war of Khaybar that happens around 2000 years ago, but you can't provide a first hand documentary of The Six days war that happened 52 years ago instead relied on blogs and articles.
From your own point of view, Your blogs and articles are correct source while a properly referenced Wikipedia with the work of many historians are not correct! Where did that epiphany come from! Does it sound sensible?
The work you wrongly quoted on masturbations, did you know when it was compiled.
Stop wanking in ignorance
Now let's agree that you are right! Consider the below about your New testament
The earliest text of the New Testament was compiled 200 years after the death of Jesus Christ! Even those were still not of acceptable standard and still went through numerous revision which is still ongoing to the present times. Since you state that articles that are written or compiled by historians are false, can we conclude that your Bible is a sham (Apologies to reasonable Christians following the thread, I'm simply follow his irrational deduction) If you can agree to that, then we can discard the articles!
I will gladly wait for your answer to this, but please in a manner that Jesus Christ would have, you are a Christian and will like to behave like Christ right? . The Christ I know will not use derogatory manner of speech, so henceforth start behaving like him and learn how to speak with people properly
RealLordZeus: I will forgive your limited knowledge, the Hadith is not an history book of a sort. However historians captured the event of that war and I've provided the proof In order to uphold the truth, I will repost the link to the article Link = https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Khaybar Further text: Haykal, Muhammad Husayn. Ch. "The Campaign of Khaybar and Missions to Kings". The Life of Muhammad. Shorouk International, 1983.
The Muslims set out for Khaybar in May 628, Muharram 7 AH.[32] According to different sources, the strength of the Muslim army varied from 1,400 to 1,800 men and between 100 and 200 horses. Some Muslim women (including Umm Salama) also joined the army, in order to take care of the wounded.[33] Compared to the Khaybarian fighting strength of 10,000, the Muslim contingent was small, but this provided an advantage, allowing them to swiftly and quietly march to Khaybar (in only three days[34]), catching the city by surprise. It also made Khaybar overconfident.[35] As a result, the Jews failed to mount a centrally organized defense, leaving each family to defend its own fortified redoubt.[10][28] This underestimation of the Muslims allowed Muhammad to conquer each fortress one by one with relative ease, claiming food, weapons, and land as he went.[36] One Muslim reported:"We met the workers of Khaybar coming out in the morning with their spades and baskets. When they saw the apostle and the army they cried, 'Muhammad with his force,' and turned tail and fled. The apostle said, 'Allah Akbar! Khaybar is destroyed. When we arrive in a people's square it is a bad morning for those who have been warned.'"[37]
The Jews, after a rather bloody skirmish in front of one of the fortresses, avoided combat in the open country. Most of the fighting consisted of shooting arrows at a great distance. On at least one occasion the Muslims were able to storm the fortresses. The besieged Jews managed to organize, under the cover of darkness, the transfer of people and treasures from one fortress to another as needed to make their resistance more effective.[10]
Neither the Jews nor the Muslims were prepared for an extended siege, and both suffered from a lack of provisions. The Jews, initially overconfident in their strength, failed to prepare even enough water supplies for a short siege.[38] Early in the campaign, the Muslims' hunger caused them to slaughter and cook several asses which they had taken during their conquest. Yet no one in the Muslim army had eaten that meat as Muhammad didn't see the men were at the point of starve to allow it. Muhammad, who had determined that the eating of horse, mule, and ass meat was forbidden, made the exception that one can eat forbidden foods so long as scarcity leaves no other option.[31]
// If you decided that proof is not enough and will insist on an Hadith, then you should quote me with the biblical verses for The Six day war of 1967
For you to know how lame your post sounds! 1. I requested for your copy of your purported article on masturbations, you are yet to provide it since morning. 2. You labelled the Muslims as violent people, I showed you a mass murder instigating verse in the Bible. You did not refute it but reply that it's God way of fulfilling promises to his people. Now I will like you to answer this questions i. Are you indirectly accepting that your own God is the author of those mass murders ii. If Yes! Are you not violent in your own way too
3. Regarding the Khaybar battle, I've provided evidence that it's not a massacre of peaceful folks as you described, but a battle between a lesser number of Muslims and larger amount of Jews, but you remain adamant choosing what you want to believe, I don't have control over that. Even Jesus Christ was reported in Mark 4:12 KJV: That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand.
RealLordZeus: That particular conflict was the battle of Khaybar! I have provided an extract and a link to in that regard! Read it up and stop living in delusion. You keep going circles, you have to pick a stand, The Muslims, are they violent or not? In your earlier post, you said there were violent, I provided some biblical verses about the true meaning of violence. You change your stance and said they were cowards and six Muslim nations were defeated by the Jews Now you are rambling that they are coward. Pick a premise! I suspect you might be a kid as your argument are incoherent, so do not be surprise if I decide to ignore you. But if can come up with logical issues, I will definitely give you a reply
RealLordZeus: Its either you are a lover of falsehood or you are confused. 1. You pull out a non existent article about the Prophet encouragement on masturbations, I proved you wrong, asking for a counterclaim 2. Your colleague argued about the Prophet conduct of the battle of Khaybar, I also prove him wrong by showing it is not a massacre but a battle in which the Jews outnumbered the Muslims, yet you adamantly stated that it's killing of peaceful people. 3. Mass murder in the Bible was Promise Fulfilment but the battle of Khaybar where the Jew outnumbered the Muslims was an act of Terrorism! Does this sound sensible 4. You are gloating over a war that cost thousands of Palestinians lives and still affecting them, yet Muslim are the violent ones. Please have a rethink
Israel was simply fulfilling Divine Providence by occupying the land promised to their ancestors and protecting themselves from annihilation, unlike one randy goat fake "prophet" who only knew how to terrorise poor, defenceless villagers on their way to their farms.
RealLordZeus: Hmmm! Seems you enjoy manipulating things to suit your own purpose quoting article out of context to confuse ppl!.
Even with what you quote, you unconsciously extolled the virtues of the Holy Prophet, He is not someone that will murder ppl during the night. The context of that Hadith is the battle of Khaybar and not a murderous attack as you described above.
Now let's look at the below verses in your Bible 1.(Joshua 6:17, 21; Joshua 6:17-21 New International Version (NIV)
17 The city and all that is in it are to be devoted[a] to the Lord. Only Rahab the prostitute and all who are with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies we sent. 18 But keep away from the devoted things, so that you will not bring about your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of Israel liable to destruction and bring trouble on it. 19 All the silver and gold and the articles of bronze and iron are sacred to the Lord and must go into his treasury.”
20 When the trumpets sounded, the army shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when the men gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed; so everyone charged straight in, and they took the city. 21 They devoted the city to the Lord and destroyed with the sword every living thing in it—men and women, young and old, cattle, sheep and donkeys
2. Deuteronomy 20:16-17 Deuteronomy 20:16-17 New International Version (NIV)
16 However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes. 17 Completely destroy[a] them—the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—as the Lord your God has commanded
Later texts even criticise the Israelites for their failure to obey the command (Psalm 106:34-42). Psalm 106:34-42 King James Version (KJV)
34 They did not destroy the nations, concerning whom the Lord commanded them:
35 But were mingled among the heathen, and learned their works.
36 And they served their idols: which were a snare unto them.
37 Yea, they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils,
38 And shed innocent blood, even the blood of their sons and of their daughters, whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan: and the land was polluted with blood.
39 Thus were they defiled with their own works, and went a whoring with their own inventions.
40 Therefore was the wrath of the Lord kindled against his people, insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance.
41 And he gave them into the hand of the heathen; and they that hated them ruled over them.
42 Their enemies also oppressed them, and they were brought into subjection under their hand
Queen Elizabeth honours Nigerian-born entrepreneur, Abulokwe
Nigerian-born digital governance and tech entrepreneur, Dr Nneka Abulokwe, has been awarded the distinction of Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, for her services to business.
The award, which is part of the 2019 Queens Birthday Honours List, was formalised on Tuesday at an investiture ceremony at Buckingham Palace, according to a statement.
Prince William, the Duke of Cambridge, presented medals to Abulokwe and other honourees on behalf of the Queen.
According to the statement, Abulokwe, who is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of MicroMax Consulting, has introduced an innovative form of governance for the digital world.
She was said to have, in the last 25 years, driven innovative technology and business transformation initiatives for some of the largest multinational digital transformation organisations.
“Put people first and the governance follows,” she was quoted as saying, adding governance should invariably be about winning the hearts and minds of employees, and about fostering a culture of accountability.
A British/Nigerian national, Abulokwe was born in London to parents from Nigeria and Jamaica, and grew up in Nigeria’s south-eastern city of Port Harcourt, where she earned her bachelor’s degree in history from the University of Port Harcourt in 1991, the statement said.
It said, “She returned to her country of birth that same year to pursue her master’s degree at the University of London and later a doctorate in business administration from Cranfield University School of Management.
“Abulokwe is one of the first black female professionals to sit on the board of a multi-national tech company in the UK. She has received many distinguished awards. Highly regarded in the field of tech enablement and governance, she was recently ranked number 4 of the Financial Times Top 100 Black, Asian, Minority, Ethnic Tech Leaders for 2018.
RealLordZeus: Actually what he posted was not true @ TheExecutioner, the Christ I believed in is not a liar, definitely you are not his true follower. Here is the exact page of the text
I don't need to ask Muslims why they behave the way they do. The type of life that was lived by the founder of islam is the prototype for all Muslims to follow So in the same way that the founder of islam was noted for attacking helpless civilian populations and killing their men to capture the women as sex slaves, today's Muslims are doing the same just like their spiritual founder attacked the poor Jews early in the morning on their way to their farms.
Secondly, unless you're trying to play word games, you'll know that pornographic addiction cannot exist without masturbation and the fact that islamic scholars are divided over an issue doesn't invalidate such a divisive issue. It is only unanimity that counts when it comes to condemnation of a practice as haram.
Newnas: You should ask them. I'm not their member so I don't know their justification for what they're doing.
I've told you what is in the Qur'an.
Firstly, that report is unverified.
Secondly, it doesn't include porn. You're the one who's including it. And I've explained to you that they're different. If you choose to be adamant then I have no power to twist your heart.
If there aren't any female sex slaves anymore, then what is happening with the Chibok girls, the hundreds of young Hausa Christian Girls being abducted from their schools all over the North, the thousands ISIS sex slaves, the Muslim rape gangs in Europe who deliberately target non Muslim females etc etc?
Secondly, the fact that Muhamad allowed his Companions to practice masturbation is of itself an encouragement for any Muslim who is addicted to porn and masturbation to continue with his ways.
Newnas: Oga, firstly, masturbation is one thing and watching porn is another.
All porn watchers masturbate but not everyone who masturbates watches porn. You can Google more to learn more.
Secondly, True, the scholars of Islam are divided on the ruling of masturbation. In fact, a great Islamic scholar wrote a whole book explaining that one can masturbate if he can't get married so as to avoid fornication. He argued at length in his book and his arguments are interesting. Not because he's supporting masturbation but because of his mastery of Islamic texts and style of debate.
However, what matters most in the end is proof not opinions or debate. If an opinion is in line with the Quran and the Sunnah, we accept it. If it isn't inline with the Quran and the Sunnah, we reject it irrespective of the Calibre of the person who gave that verdict.
As Imam Malik said:
That is because Allaah said:
Suratun Najm: 3-4
Now back to the issue of masturbation.
Allaah praised the believers thus:
Since there isn't war captives anymore, every form of sexual gratification outside wedlock is blameworthy and a form of transgression. And that obviously includes masturbation.
This is the opinion of Imam Shaafi'ee and majority of Islamic scholars, past and present.
What does Jesus have to do with this? And kindly produce the Bible verse where Jesus appointed body guards for himself.
DjAduba: Well ! It is not new... The POP has security all super G.O's has securities in and out even ur Jesus has securities around him... Falz is right when he says everyone is a murder falling hypocrite..
