    From this morning's WSJ:

    Islamic State Leader Targeted in U.S. Military Raid

    The U.S. military targeted the head of Islamic State, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, in a raid in northwestern Syria that U.S. officials said resulted in the death of an individual.

    No worries some other idiot will take up the cause. Then we can play wack-a-mole all over again.
