Abu Omar al Baghdadi, the fictitious leader of al Qaeda’s Islamic State of Iraq, released an audiotape calling for former Sunni insurgents now part of the police, Army, Awakening Councils, and the Sons of Iraq movements to rejoin the fight against the government and the US. Baghdadi is played by an actor named Abu Abdullah al Naima and is the creation of Abu Ayyub al Masri, al Qaeda’s leader in Iraq.
