And political commentator adam raphael. Welcome to you all and thank you forjoining us. How much does one death disrupt a Terror Movement . In 2014, abu bakr al baghdadi, the leader of thejihadi Group Islamic state, declared a caliphate in iraq and syria. By the time of his death last weekend the territory had been lost, his caliphate had crumbled. But is has already declared a new leader and vowed revenge. So, barry, you start us off. Tell us what we know about this new leader. The new leader is Abu Ibrahim Al hashimi alqurayshi, he is actually an ex Saddam Hussein man. He could be more brutal than abu bakr al baghdadi. He is very influential. His name is giving a lot of meanings. When he says alqurayshi, it means that he comes from mecca, and when he says al hashimi, it means he is of the prophet.

They would like to say that they have more islamic legitimacy in particular. Isis is not alqaeda. It is not a one man show like a counter. There summer by night and was everything like alqaeda. Osama bin laden was everything. Isis is about the ideology and very strong ideology and they managed to create a precedent on the middle east and the islamic world to create first a state with a population of more than 7 million. The size of the state is bigger than britain. It used to have about 1 million income from the oil and gas of celia, so they still have branches in afghanistan and north africa the oil and gas of assyria. Isis is still there. The corruption, the lack of Good Governance and the sectarianism. The anarchy. If you see that there is uprising in iraq and lebanon.
