This would be some great news.
Multiple news agencies are reporting that ISIS leader and self-proclaimed Caliph Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been killed by a coalition airstrike, yet the Pentagon has not yet confirmed the reports.
One states that:
“Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been killed by coalition airstrikes on Raqqa on the fifth day of Ramadan,”

You know, they’re schemers: Schemers trying to control their worlds. I’m not a schemer. I try to show the schemers how pathetic their attempts to control things really are…You know what, you know what I noticed? Nobody panics when things go according to plan: Even if the plan is horrifying. If tomorrow I tell the press that like a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it’s all part of the plan.
