She’ll either be utterly domestic in the Kinder, Küche, Kirche way, or she be one of those domineering, organizing women who strides through the streets at the head of the women’s branch of the Morals Police, baton firmly in hand for whipping women whose ankles show — taking full advantage of her rank as Mrs. Number 2.

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not

’s (ISIS) second-in-command was captured in the same operation that killed her husband, the United States military said on Saturday.
"U.S. Central Command commends Iraqi Intelligence and Security forces on the successful operation leading to the capture and arrest of Chechen ISIS terrorist Umm Hussein, the wife of ISIS leader Abu Khadija, who was killed in a strike on March 13," read a statement from CENTCOM, the US military command in the Middle East.
Abu Khadija, whose full name is Abdullah Makki Muslih al-Rafiei, was killed in an operation in Anbar province carried out by Iraqi and American forces with Kurdish assistance.
CENTCOM said that two other ISIS members were captured in the operation and called it a testament to Iraq’s commitment to dismantling ISIS networks.
"CENTCOM, with our partners and allies, remain steadfast in our efforts to eliminate ISIS and prevent its resurgence," the statement said.
Rafiei was killed "after several years of investigation and relying on information from the Kurdistan Region Security Council, in coordination with the coalition and later with Iraqi federal forces," the Kurdistan Region Security Council said on Friday.
The United States in 2023 named Rafiei a Specially Designated Global Terrorist as an ISIS leader.

in Anbar province. He was chief of global operations and emir of a top ISIS committee.
"As the Emir of ISIS’ most senior decision-making body, Abu Khadijah 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 US military’s Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement.
Rafiei was a target for more than two years "and in the past six months, the noose has tightened around this terrorist," the Iraqi military’s Joint Operations Command said in a statement.
Intelligence about him was gathered during operations in the Anbar desert, raids of ISIS hideouts across the country, and from a person close to Rafiei who was captured by the Kurdistan Region Security Council and handed over to Iraqi forces.
His location was determined and he was killed at 6:30 Friday evening in a "successful airstrike in the Anbar desert," the Joint Operations Command said.
Video released by CENTCOM shows the moment of the airstrike on a moving vehicle.
Iraqi and American forces moved into the site of the airstrike and found the bodies of Rafiei and a second ISIS member, both wearing unwent
kaboom!boom jackets and in possession of weapons, according to CENTCOM.
Iraqi forces said they also arrested seven ISIS suspects, including two women, accused of providing Rafiei with supplies. Based on intelligence gathered at the scene, five other wanted individuals were arrested in Erbil.
Rafiei was identified by matching his DNA with a sample collected from an earlier raid when he had escaped, CENTCOM said.
