Terror Networks

Kurdish general reveals details about who sold Baghdadi out to US

2019-11-01

[ALMASDARNEWS] An unnamed personal "security official" of ISIS

...embracing their inner Islamic Brute...
leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi passed information about the terrorist number one’s movements and safe houses to Kurdish militia, NBC News reported, citing Syrian Democratic Forces General Mazloum Abdi. According to Abdi, the spy in al-Baghdadi’s inner circle was responsible for "securing the places" where the ISIS* leader was hiding.

"Al-Baghdadi took his security precautions to the highest level. He never used high-tech communications at all. Any place he was in, was in a communications blackout, with exception of those who were directly responsible for his security", the general said.

Abdi revealed that the "official" who betrayed al-Baghdadi did so out of a desire for Dire Revenge against both ISIS* and its leader after allegedly losing hope in the group’s "future". The Kurdish general further said that the spy was present at the terrorist’s hideout when it was assaulted by US forces, and was subsequently evacuated from it.

TOUGH ROAD TO THE OPERATION
Mazloum Abdi stated that the spy was regularly providing the Kurdish militia with information that was later transmitted to the US. The person didn’t know the exact location of the safe house, but managed to make observations and notice landmarks that allegedly helped US intelligence pinpoint his location to a facility in Syria’s Idlib province.

"The idea that al-Baghdadi was in Idlib was completely unexpected. It was a surprise to everyone", Abdi said, referring to the presence of terrorist groups in the province that had been rivals of ISIS* in the past.

US intelligence services were not especially keen on working based on the spy’s information, fearing that it could be a trap, the Kurdish general said. But the attitude changed after the spy reportedly managed to smuggle al-Baghdadi’s blood samples and underwear for a DNA test that confirmed his identity. Abdi didn’t clarify how their asset in ISIS* managed to pull this feat off.

The operation to take out al-Baghdadi was also on the verge of failure, as it was delayed by US President Donald Trump

’s decision to pull US forces out from northern Syria. At the same time, the ISIS* leader was preparing to change his hideout to a new, unknown one, according to Abdi. He estimated that al-Baghdadi would move to a new location within 48 hours if the operation was not carried out.

#17 Do they have a grand vizier/wazir ? I think daesh caliphate is more on the lines of the rashidun, who kept six expendable advisors and no wazir.

#16 Isn't it usually the Grand Vizier who does in the Caliph?

#15 Had to look up SouthPark. Maybe I should write a funny book when I'm not doing anything. It'll keep me in good spirits too. Aaah... Rantburg's enough.

the "official" who betrayed al-Baghdadi did so out of a desire for revenge against both ISIS* and its leader after allegedly losing hope in the group’s "future".

Leads me to believe more and more that the Hazimite faction had something to do with it.
