Two weeks after a United States military mission brought a cowardly end to the life of Islamic State leader and founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, Turkey is reporting they have captured his sister, her husband, and her step-children. The irony in the story is she was located in A’zaz, a city that was not part of the area controlled by American allies in the Syrian Democratic Forces. It was controlled by Turkey’s allies and was the headquarters of the Syrian Interim Government.
While Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has pointed to the capture of Rasmiya Awad, 65, as proof that they will be harder on the Islamic State than the Kurds or the Americans, that narrative seems to be upended when we look at the location of her capture. Turkey has enjoyed free reins to carry out operations in A’zaz even before they invaded northeastern Syria following the United States withdrawal from the land near the border. Does this show they’re the answer to completely decimate the Islamic State or have they been harboring their new captive, intentionally or not?
The dynamics of the situation in the Middle East are always muddled and ever-changing, but the narrative they’re pushing doesn’t seem to jibe with the facts.
Turkey captures ISIS leader Baghdadi’s sister in Syria
Rasmiya Awad, 65, was detained in a raid near Azaz, the official said, referring to a Turkish-controlled Syrian town near the border. When captured, she was also accompanied by five children.
“We hope to gather a trove of intelligence from Baghdadi’s sister on the inner workings of ISIS,” the official said.
Before we shower Turkey with kudos, we should be asking why they either had not located Awad until now or have been harboring her the whole time. This is a victory against terrorism, but are the victors secretly part of the problem?

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
