Just in: President Trump announces assassination of ISIS leader Al-Baghdaddi

The President of the United States of America, Donald Trump has announced the death of ISIS terrorist leader and founder, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, in an overnight raid in northern Syria.

“Last night the United States brought the world’s No. 1 terrorist to justice,” Trump said in a press conference on Sunday morning. “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead. He was the founder and leader of ISIS.”

He said that his death was among the top priorities of his administration, adding that “I got to watch much of it.”

Al-Baghdadi died after “running into a dead-end tunnel” and was “whimpering” and “crying all the way,” Trump remarked.

In the incident, Trump said that three of his young children were brought with him into the tunnel before he detonated a suicide vest, killing himself and the three children.

“It was him,” he said, confirming the terror leader’s death. “He spent his last moments in utter fear, in total panic in dread,” Trump said.

The US leader also noted that the death of of Al-Baghdadi would serve as a deterrent to others including the death of Osama Bin Alden’s son which was also carried out by the United States. 

Trump then noted all of the innocent people ISIS killed, including Christians, journalists, and members of other religions, during its brutal reign of terror in the region.

“So many beheadings,” Trump said, “openly displayed for the world to see.”

“This is what he wanted, this is what he was proud of. He was a sick and depraved man and now he’s gone,” he said, referring to al-Baghdadi. “He died like a dog,” Trump later remarked.
