#2 Which organizations gets the credit?

Did the SAS and the Norwegians get together and pull off a gig on him from a mile and a quarter with a Barrett

Or did he choke his chicken one too many times and died of a herniated prostate?

#5 Obama didn't spike the ball. Baghdadi may still be alive.

If dead, good riddance.

#8 So he's either dead, or in alternate seriously or permanently crippled.

Presuming that he is still alive but indeed very seriously injured, + depending on what level of medical assistance he receives as per full-or-partial recovery, iff he's still the same as I remember ala many years ago I suspect he will work or dedicate himself towards some form of physical recovery AMAP ASAP.
