أبو بكر البغدادي - بطاقة تعريف

July 8, 2014 - Before appearing in a video delivering a sermon in Mosul on July 5, there were only two authenticated photos of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the newly named so called "Islamic State" (Daesh), formerly ISIS -- the insurrection sweeping through Syria and Iraq. Al-Baghdadi has now declared himself leader of a new caliphate representing the world’s 1.6 billion Muslims.
