Top ISIS leader who was once Saddam general, killed in Fallujah
2015-04-06
[RUDAW.NET] A local militia in Fallujah said its forces had killed a top ISIS leader who was once a general in Saddam Hussein's army.

The Fallujah Liberation Committee said that Abu-Jihad Abdullah Dlemi, who was killed by its gunnies, was a top ISIS leader responsible for the group's suicide kabooms.

"Abu-Jihad was a former General in Saddam Hussein's regime," Abdullah Wasiq, a member of the committee, told news hounds. "He was killed near Fallujah's Grand Mosque by the security forces of the Fallujah Liberation Committee."

#4  Killed, as in the heat of battle, or killed, as in captured and murdered?

#3  Somehow, I read the headline that a dead general had come back to life as an ISIS leader.

A couple of commas would've helped me!

When I read the headline, I was hoping for Al-Dhuri...
