he had a degree from the university of mosul. in sharia studies.was a guy who took sort of a contrary view of what isis could be from a strategic standpoint living under sharia law and ensuring that it was executed throughout the global environment. so, i think -- i kind of disagree with peter a little bit, whereas, yeah, there's a constant whac-a-mole in terms of killing people and watching a new one take over. this guy was really trying to centralize the command of isis in many nations and pull them together. not as successful but he was attempting to do that. >> peter, i'm fascinated by these groups in africa which have now popped up claiming allegiance to or spiritual allegiance to isis. are they actually linked directly to -- are they supported by isis? or is it just an ideological affinity and they want the name recognition and so they pledge allegiance to isis? >> i think it's the latter. if you slap on the isis patch and say you're part of isis, you're now the biggest, baddest jihadist group on the block. i mean, there is an example of some

margaret molina, mosul, was alma sasha. so $11.00 and miss bushel video. so some have seen the block, i shave roadside to i i, i almost want to be pushed way. sure. tom on one location take it out in june. although you didn't want to take. ready this in, i mean, i think i think it occurs to me little that he's less well mark him tardy. has a leisure that are not his own motivating. didn't show up a lot of people that they move out of the colonial major colon lower couple of dilemma osler now. yes. hello. this is denise, how can these us what are the all my legs fearful letters? he's son them. do learn obaskey zone. he sit with these little barden, who's been with me is do you deal with isabel's or be those made? you get a hold on kish leah. i listen a little sheila and all this. you know, what could sheila polish will feel awful to offload the computer? she live, it will do list. be to me let to keep these 2 d i relisted the austin buffer. maybe symbol old of the additional view took you to it on that. it was didn't last sunday. smith a to hr and ah, yes,
