Iranian officials and state-friendly media responded cautiously Sunday to President Trump’s announcement of the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, but reactions did include the airing of the regime’s conspiracy theory that the United States created the Sunni terrorist group in the first place.
“Not a big deal! You just killed your creature,” tweeted the regime’s communications minister, Mohammad Javad Azari-Jahromi, in a post directed at Trump.
Press TV made a similar insinuation: “US President Donald Trump says American forces killed Daesh leader Abubakr al Baghdadi,” it tweeted. “But who created the ISIS?”
