[ALMASDARNEWS] The high-ranking 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....
of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS) commander, Abu Bakr al-Raqqawi, was found dead at the village of Wadi 'Aata in the 'Arsal Barrens of Leb on Sunday.

According to a Lebanese Army communique, Abu Bakr al-Raqqawi's body was discovered on Sunday near the border-town of 'Arsal; his cause of death is still unknown.

Abu Bakr al-Raqqawi was a Syrian bad boy from the al-Raqqa Governorate that was leading the Lebanese faction of the Islamic State before his corpse was discovered on Sunday.

Al-Raqqawi was responsible for the murder of Zaher Ezzeddine, a Lebanese soldier, in eastern Leb last year.
