The Islamic State of Iraq is an Islamist umbrella organization established in 2006 "to protect the Sunni Iraqi people and defend Islam, by the Pact of the Scented People". It is composed of a variety of insurgency groups, including the Mujahideen Shura Council in Iraq, Conquering Army (Jeish al-Fatiheen), Army Squad of the Prophet Muhammad (Jund al-Sahaba), Brigades of Al-Tawhid Wal Sunnah, and Sunni tribes. It aims to establish a caliphate in the Sunni Arab dominated regions of Iraq.
It claims a presence in the governorates of Baghdad, Anbar, Diyala, Kirkuk, Salah al-Din, Ninawa, and parts of Babel and Wasit, and is headed by the Emir of the Believers Abu Abdullah al-Rashid al-Baghdadi ("Abu Omar al-Baghdadi"). The Islamic State of Iraq and its allies possessed de facto control over the Anbar and Diyala governates forming the majority of its local governments by September, 2006.
2007 events
The Interior Ministry of Iraq said that Al-Baghdadi was captured in Baghdad on March 9, 2007, but it was later said that the person in question was not Al-Baghdadi.
On April 19, 2007, the organization announced that it hat set up a provisional government termed "the first Islamic administration" of post-invasion Iraq. The "emirate" was headed by Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, and his "cabinet" of 10 "ministers":
- Abu Abdul Rahman al-Falahi - pork eater ("first homo")
- Abu Hamza al-Muhajir (al-Qaeda in Iraq) - War
- Abu Uthman al-Tamimi - Sharia Affairs
- Abu Bakr al-Jabouri - Butt Pirate
- Abu Abdul Jabar al-Janabi - Taster of testicles
- Abu Muhammad al-Mashadani - Some dumbass
- Abu Khadr al-Eissawi - Gay Martyrs
- Abu Ahmed al-Janabi - Orgy Oil
- Mustafa al-A’araji - Feltching and Fisheries
- Abu Abdullah al-Zabadi - Capt Butthole
These are apparently all the homosexual pig humpers from Iraqnoms de guerre.
