Terrorists & Topical Terrorist Targets

Recommended Posts

 



This is what happens when terrorists have poor coördination. A carbomb on it's way to a target get's blown up by an IED and explodes mid-air!

DARWIN AWARD!!

Commander of ISIS, Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi was seriously hurt in an air-strike last month and has not been in day-to-day control since then:

 

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/apr/21/isis-leader-abu-bakr-al-baghdadi-wounded-air-strike

Radio Iran claims he's dead. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/isis-leader-abu-bakr-al-baghdadi-reported-dead-by-radio-iran-1498603

 

I'm not sure this source is reliable, could be a hoax. On the other hand he'd be good deathlist material if he still survives.

 

EDIT: Now I'm 99% sure it's just a hoax.

 

Baghdadi died in an Israeli hospital in the occupied Golan Heights where he had been hospitalized for treatment after sustaining severe injuries during a joint attack of the Iraqi army and popular forces.

Israeli hospital? Yeah, right! They tended Bin Laden as well, didn't they?

Could there be something to this? Is Baghdadi an Israeli agent? Didn't know if I should post this here or under Conspiracy Theories. http://www.gulf-daily-news.com/NewsDetails.aspx?storyid=381153

Karim Wasfi, former conductor of the Iraqi National Symphony Orchestra, may end up as too tempting a target for the Islamic State, should he persist in defiantly bringing his cello along to the immediate aftermath of their terrorist atrocities, in order to play mournful dirges.

Maybe it's a new trend to post selfies (with cellos?) at terrorist strike sites?

Erm..... terrorists threatened to bomb a cycle race in Frankfurt. And even though the culprit was arrested before he could attack they still cancelled the race anyway.

 

It'll be "back next year" apparently. (I think that statement is more about trying to kid themselves their country will still be recognisable by this time next year than anything else. I mean if you have a policy of cancelling everything and staying indoors every time some fucking medieval mong makes a half-arsed plot.)

 

And these are supposed to be the "most logical" people and Europe, and it's supposedly the "strongest" country in Europe.......

Here's a conspiracy theory: In Germany, the impact of the Edward Snowden revelations never stopped. Last week, it was revealed that our german secret service, the BND, supported the American NSA in their spying on other european politicians and especially France. It is possible that the BND even helped the NSA with spying on Germany's own companies. The background of this is that, since World War II, modern Germany has been a construct of American "nation building" and Germany (like many other countries) has been a bit of a vasall of the USA since then. Now, there are lots of angry voices demanding reforms of our secret service, and an end of support to American secret services in their endless fight against terror (which might be a disguise for spying on german companies). It could be that this timely revelation of a prevented terror attack is just a charade to remind people how important the secret service and the fight against terror is. Maybe they are going to claim that American help was very helpful here.

That's the problem with these stories. They say: look, our secret police did their job, they prevented an attack. They're worth every tax Euro you pay. You have to believe us, 'cause we say so. We won't show evidence, 'cause that would expose our methods.

 

It may be true. Unfortunately, they'd say the same when they'd been using their agents to spy on their citizens, or been playing Minesweeper all the time.

The poor country... there's also a civil war going on there with one side being backed by Saudi Arabia. I don't even know whether Saudi Arabia and the USA are on the same side there.

One of the other two, Assad Uzzaman, 25, is still fighting in Syria, while the other one is in jail in the UK.

Fine DDP material, then. That Uzzaman, I mean. From the report you linked to I glean a horrible attrition rate.

 

regards,

Hein

 

Indeed! He'll probably get an obituary as well, if nr.4 gets one here as well...

 

Assad Uzzaman's death appears to have been confirmed. Sadly, not much in the way of detail here, for example we don't know if he died in 2015, so might not get the DDP points, but I'll leave it to TMIB. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/syria/11763428/Last-of-the-Portsmouth-jihadists-killed-in-Syria.html
