"The Iraqi air force carried out a heroic operation targeting the convoy of the criminal terrorist Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi," Iraq's security forces said in a statement, without clarifying when the alleged air strike took place.

4. Hope they killed him

I know this may be going out on a limb, but I say he is a bad man. Not only that, I think that in this case violence is justified even without trying to talk to him. No Nobel peace prize for me.
