ISIS’s chief of global operations, the second in command for the terrorist group, was killed on Thursday in an American airstrike, U.S. Central Command said.
 

CENTCOM said late on Friday that it killed Abdallah Makki Muslih al-Rifai, also known as “Abu Khadijah,” in an attack on March 13 in the Anbar Province in western Iraq. He was killed while inside a car traveling through the Iraqi countryside
 
The U.S. described al-Rifai as “the Emir of ISIS’ most senior decision-making body” and said that he “maintained responsibility for operations, logistics, and planning conducted by ISIS globally, and directs a significant portion of finance for the group’s global organization.”

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

How bigoted of the AF to kill a Muslim enemy during the holy Ramadan period while Muslims are allowed to skip physical training in the US Air Force. :whistle:
