Iraq says its jets killed top Anbar mufti
2015-05-15
[RUDAW.NET] The top ISIS mufti in Iraq's Anbar province has been killed in an air raid by Iraqi jets, the Baghdad Operations Command said in a statement on Thursday.

"Iraqi fighter jets in the areas of Qaim and Karabla in Anbar managed to kill the official ISIS mufti, Mullah Hamid Al-Jofaifi, who has ordered the killings of civilians," said the statement.

It added that several other Death Eaters also had been hit by the Iraqi air raids.

Earlier this week, Iraq's Defense Ministry claimed that Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
's second top leader, Abu Al-Afari, had been killed northwest of djinn-infested Mosul
... the home of a particularly ferocious and hairy djinn...
in Arclight airstrikes by the US-led coalition.

It said he had been second in command to the group's leader His Supreme Immensity, Caliph of the Faithful and Galactic Overlord, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
...formerly merely the head of ISIL and a veteran of the Bagram jailhouse. Looks like a new messiah to bajillions of Moslems, like just another dead-eyed mass murder to the rest of us...
, and was killed while meeting with several other leaders and Death Eaters at a mosque.

#3  When rebels are getting their loot on,
And potentates peons are chewed on,
That's when balalaika
Is likely to strike ya,
'Cause Ivan is putting his chute on.

Okay, probably not anymore, nor in Iraq... I'll owe you one, MIAF.

#2  When you play paying gigs in the sun,
Picking hot as the jitterbugs run,
And you're mooning the dudes
Down there tuning their ouds,
Balalaika is barrels of fun!

#1  Were those the Sukhoi jets flown by the Iranians or the F-16s flown by the Israelis that got him?

Or was it the old MIG-21 flown by the Iraqi?
