Nope, I'm not offended CL21.  Still more ISIS trash to be taken out - even in North America, Europe, and Australia since the article states Al-Adnani as stating, " He said ISIS supporters in the West had a religious duty to launch lone-wolf attacks. Analysts have said that was a game changer and may have inspired attacks in North America, Europe and Australia.  He was the mouthpiece of ISIS. He said things like, 'If you can't shoot them, then stab them, and if you can't stab them, then crush their heads with rocks. If you can't do that then drive your cars, your vehicles, to kill them," " Robertson said.

Senior ISIS leader, spokesman Adnani killed, reports say

Published August 30, 2016 

A top ISIS leader and spokesman thought to have a heavy hand in planning and ordering the group's international terror operations died in Syria, according to Amaq, ISIS' news agency.

"Shaykh Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, the spokesman of the Islamic State, was martyred while surveying the operations to repel the military campaigns in Aleppo," Amaq wrote, citing a military source, in a Tuesday news release sent to Telegram channels monitored by ISIS followers.

ISIS also declared revenge for the killing, saying that a generation raised in ISIS-held territory will take action, and that it is a generation where "the blood of the sheikhs will only make it more firm on the path of jihad and determination to take revenge and assault."

Adnani's death could not be immediately confirmed by U.S. officials.

“With regards to the reports about the death of ISIL leader Al-Adnani, I can confirm on background that earlier this morning (EDT) -- PM same day in Syria -- coalition forces conducted an airstrike in al Bab, Syria, targeting an ISIL senior leader," a senior defense official told Fox News. "We are still assessing the results of the operation at this time.”

The 39-year-old Adnani, born in Binnish in northern Syria, is described as having hand-selected the gruesome execution videos ISIS routinely puts out, according to The New York Times.

He was the subject of a $5 million State Department reward. In December, a senior intelligence source told NBC that Adnani was the member of ISIS -- not the group's leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi -- that the U.S. wanted dead the most.

"He is at the top of the list," the official said.

As the leader of the group's propaganda arm, Adnani was also the most vocal ISIS leader in calling for so-called "lone wolf" attacks against Western targets.

In a September 2014 speech Adnani encouraged Islamists to kill Europeans by any means necessary.

"Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car," Adnani said.

In his most recent speech, in May, Adnani said attacks against civilians in Western countries were "dearer and better" for ISIS than success on the battlefield, according to SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors and analyzes the threat from jihadists.

Top ISIS fighters recruited into a secret elite fighting unit met directly with Adnani -- while blindfolded, so few knew what he looked like, The Times reported.

Whatever the party that succeeded in killing Aladnana either Washington or Moscow, where Atnazaaan responsibility for the killing, spokesman for the Islamic state, the event highlights the organization's leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who narrowed down around the killing of senior leaders close to him.

It is believed that al-Baghdadi, who was told repeatedly that he was wounded or killed, because it is subsequently found that he was still alive, which is valuable fishing Taatrajat Russia or the United States.

The deaths Aladnana one of the most important architects of jihadi attacks in the West, the organization has received a new blow in the loss added to the field several failures suffered in Syria.

And it shows the killing Aladnana new success in penetrating the structure of the organization, especially after the announcement of Washington targeted in the province of Aleppo, without confirming his death.

A fatal blow to the organization

He said an expert on jihadist movements in Syria and Iraq, Hisham al-Hashimi's security adviser for combating the organization of the Islamic state of the Iraqi government, said that "the killing of Aladnana is a fatal blow for the organization Daesh", shows that the organization "is unable to protect the most important leaders."

According to Hashemi, it seems "It is clear that the organization is breaking Daesh at the level of the second row of the leadership, as most of these leaders and movements and her organization became known by the intelligence services."

He guessed that "the United States has become very close to al-Baghdadi assassinated in the coming period."

In addition to being one of the most prominent leaders of the organization, the symbolism of Adnana especially among jihadists is being announced in June 2014 the establishment of "Islamic caliphate" in Syria and Iraq, before highlighting his name after repeating his call for attacks in Western countries.

Aladnana and longer (39 years), the third high-level leadership within the organization to lose only five months, what draws more attention to the organization's leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who has become more and more isolated.

Hashemi, who was announced on August 17 / August Aladnana be injured by an air strike near the international coalition sponsor a town in the countryside north of Aleppo, where there are clashes between members of the organization on the one hand and the Syrian-backed opposition factions Turkish forces on the other.

And Aladnana He was born in 1977 in the town of Punch Syrian Idlib province, it was considered one of the most prominent leaders of the terrorist organization in Syria and closest to the leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

In August / August 2015 media picked up reports which said that Aladnana is in charge of a special unit within the competent organization of the implementation of punitive operations outside the territory under the control of the Islamic state.

On May 5 / May 2015 State Department announced determine the financial reward is estimated at $ 5 million given to those who provide information will contribute to the arrest of Aladnana.

Washington has dismissed Tuesday that "Aladnana remove from the battlefield would be a major blow for the Islamic state in Iraq and the Levant."

The expert in the affairs of jihadist Ayman al-Tamimi The loss Aladnana "symbolically important but they also reflect the largest decline for the organization of the Islamic state."

"If the raid was targeted by the international coalition, that shows the extent of penetration of the international coalition intelligence services, it would not have been able to kill many of the senior leaders."

Noose is tightening the circle of al-Baghdadi

In July, the organization of the Islamic state announced the killing of one of the most important military Kiedier Abu Omar Chechen in Iraq. In March and Washington announced the killing of Abdul Rahman, in turn, aka Alqadola Bhadji imam and was regarded as the second man in the organization.

On the ground, my organization suffered big losses during the last period in Syria, especially in the province of Aleppo.

According to Hashemi, the Aladnana "often was traveling between the cities of Abu Kamal, Deir ez-Zor (east) but it seems that the battle for Aleppo and its importance needed to personally oversee them."

And lost to organize the Islamic state since the beginning of August his main strongholds in the province of Aleppo two Manbej city controlled by Syrian forces of democracy following the fighting that lasted more than two months and the city Jarablos which it withdrew from in front of a Turkish military operation in support of the Syrian opposition factions.

He added that the international coalition aircraft targeted a spokesman Daesh (label blockbuster regulated) air raid on the door in the city of Aleppo province, but he could not confirm Aladnana killed by the strike, adding that the Pentagon still continue to study the results of the raid.

The disputed Washington and Moscow is apparently responsible for the deaths of Aladnana especially as both mount raids on extremist organization in Syria within the scene is further complicated with the entry of Turkey in the crisis Btoglha in Syrian territory and its expansion under the name of the war on extremist Kurdish organization.

US officials said Wednesday that Russia's claims to have killed Aladnana "joke" and that the raid that killed carried out by a US drone.

A US military spokesman, who asked not to be named, when asked about Moscow's announcement that they are killed Aladnana "This joke would have been funny nor the nature of the campaign that Russia waged in Syria," while another US official said the raid was carried out by a US drone aircraft fired a Hellfire missile the car is believed to Aladnana was there.
