Yesterday when asked what the name of the leader of Islamic state was Prime minister John Key replied “Look I’ll get it wrong if I actually name his name – it’s Al Jabeersies something – but whatever I mean, but yeah,”  the leader of Islamic state correct name is Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was radicalised in the notorious Abu Ghraib prison where US troops humiliated fellow inmates. On release from Abu Ghraib prison Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi turned around to the guards and said ‘I’ll see you guys in New York:’

Yesterday 100 personnel from the New Zealand defence force were deployed to Iraq to assist training the Iraqi Army as part of Taskforce Taji.

The Prime minister is sending New Zealanders to a warzone and it would be helpful if he could pronounce the name of this enemy leader instead of “yeah nah”. It shows our troops who he is putting in harm’s way he cares.
