Qassem Soleimani: Why His Killing is Good News for IS Jihadists

Jeremy Bowen in the BBC:

“In an editorial of the weekly IS newspaper al-Naba, the group said that Soleimani and al-Muhandis died at the hands of their ‘allies'” – a reference to the US.

It said the enemies of IS were busy fighting each other, which would drain their energy and resources and ultimately benefit jihadists.”
