Week 23 update

Another week, another lack of updates on yon Boko Haram lad. Nothing confirmed yet. Even outside of the UK press there doesn't seem to be anything confirmed, it's all claimed, alleged, reported. I think I'll be kicking this can down the road for another week.

Fair dos.

Seems it was confirmed by Islamic State on Friday, with quite a few African pages reporting it over the last 24 hrs:  https://www.google.com/search?q=Shekau+iswap+confirms&rlz=1C1CHBF_en-gbGB917GB917&biw=1680&bih=932&tbs=sbd%3A1&tbm=nws&ei=18S8YPrfFquMjLsPt6CTyAc&oq=Shekau+iswap+confirms&gs_l=psy-ab.3...27064.31027.0.32714.3.3.0.0.0.0.63.180.3.3.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..0.0.0....0.21JPoVulDIw#spf=1622983929145

For an extremely tenuous UK Obit some site called "UK Time News" are carrying it: https://www.uktimenews.com/breaking-isis-ordered-us-to-kill-boko-haram-leader-iswap-confirms-shekaus-death-uktn/

He said the acting head of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) ordered them to take action against Shekau for deflecting and killing “believers”.

I like the "acting head" part. You have to follow HR policy even in a jihad. Don't just pick the latest blood thirsty zealot. Follow a process, see who's out there. Get some new ancient ideas.

I assume these appointments are made on a strictly non-discriminatory basis.

To be the leader of Boko Harum? It's a bit of a change of direction at his age, but good luck to him. I like to see Scots going abroad and getting success.

"The Islamic State West African Province (ISWAP)"

ISWAP? All I wanted was to offload some Panini doubles of Ryan Porteous and I ended up leading an Islamic terrorist group...
