<p>ISIS&#8217; No. 2 man in command and spokesman, Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, has been killed and his death comes just six months after two other top leaders, Haji Iman and Omar al-Shishani, were killed. He was at the top of the U.S. hit list with a $5 million bounty on his head, but it is not yet known whether or not the United States is responsible for his killing.</p>
<p>NBC terrorism analyst, Evan Kohlmann, explained to NBC that al-Adnani was a prominent figure in ISIS and had his hand in executing terrorist attacks abroad. &#8220;There is a large amount of evidence suggesting that he was tremendously influential in terms of pushing individuals in Western countries to carry out homegrown terrorist attacks,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>Back in September 2014, al-Adnani ordered the killings of Westerners, especially Americans, in a proclamation which stated:</p>
<p>&#8220;If you can kill a disbelieving American or European — especially the spiteful and filthy French — or an Australian, or a Canadian, or any other disbeliever from the disbelievers waging war, including the citizens of the countries that entered into a coalition against the Islamic State, then rely upon Allah, and kill him in any manner or way however it may be.</p>
<p>Smash his head with a rock, or slaughter him with a knife, or run him over with your car, or throw him down from a high place, or choke him, or poison him.&#8221;<br />
The leader&#8217;s death is not expected to necessarily weaken ISIS, however, Laith Alkhouri, co-founder of Flashpoint, believes that it could kill the spirit of the fighters who idolized him. Nevertheless, al-Adnani&#8217;s death may provide some peace, if only for a little while!<br />
