LNA Kills ISIS 'Emir' in Southern Libya
2020-09-25
[LIBYAREVIEW] On Monday, the Spokesman for the Libyan National Army (LNA), Major General Ahmed al-Mismari announced the killing of an ’emir’ of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really 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 western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS) in southern Libya.He said that the IS leader was killed during an ambush operation, by LNA forces in the Abd al-Kafi neighbourhood of Sebha, on 14 September. al-Mismari had previously announced that the man was believed to be the leader of IS in Libya, known as Abu Abdullah al-Libi.

After the investigation was completed, and another IS operative was arrested in the Ghadwa area, al-Mismari confirmed the killed assailant was Abu Moaz al-Iraqi, also known as Abu Abdullah al-Iraqi. He is thought to be the leader of IS in North Africa,
Whoa — impressive!
the LNA front man said. al-Mismari pointed out that al-Iraqi entered Libya on 12 September 2014, alongside Abdulaziz Al-Anbari, with forged Libyan passports through The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund...
At the time, al-Anbari was an emir of IS in Libya. Abu Abdullah was assigned as an assistant to him by ISIS leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. al-Iraqi became the leader of the terrorist organization, after the LNA killed al-Anbari in the eastern city of Derna in 2015. The investigation revealed his identity as Abdullah al-Rabai, an Iraqi Kurd. al-Mismari explained that the Emir of IS in Libya, was killed in a 7-hour battle with LNA forces.

#2  Quite a deal, ambush with 7 hours + to work.

I'd spread the rumor that Erdogon held them out to dry as a negotiating tactic.
