This process was further consolidated after Zarqawi's death on June 7, 2006. On October 15, a statement titled 'Announcing the Establishment of the Islamic State of Iraq' was released by Muharib al-Juburi, ISI's new information minister. And on November 10, AQI's replacement for Zarqawi, Abu Hamza al-Muhajir, pledged <i>baya</i> to the newly appointed leader of ISI, Abu Omar al Baghdadi. While Muhajir had called bin Ladin emir in his first audio release on June 13, 2006, he never actually officially pledged baya. ... Therefore, Zarqawi's death invalidated MSM's implied pledge to bin Ladin. This means that, in effect, the group and its subsequent incarnations have not technically been subordinate to al-Qaeda in eight years.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=report&rft.btitle=The+War+between+ISIS+and+al-Qaeda+for+Supremacy+of+the+Global+Jihadist+Movement&rft.pub=The+Washington+Institute+for+Near+East+Policy&rft.date=2014-06&rft.aulast=Zelin&rft.aufirst=Aaron+Y.&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.washingtoninstitute.org%2Fuploads%2FDocuments%2Fpubs%2FResearchNote_20_Zelin.pdf&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIslamic+State" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-163"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-163">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFBirke2017" class="citation magazine cs1">Birke, Sarah (5 February 2017). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.nybooks.com/articles/2015/02/05/how-isis-rules/">"How ISIS Rules"</a>. <i>The New York Review of Books</i>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=The+New+York+Review+of+Books&rft.atitle=How+ISIS+Rules&rft.date=2017-02-05&rft.aulast=Birke&rft.aufirst=Sarah&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nybooks.com%2Farticles%2F2015%2F02%2F05%2Fhow-isis-rules%2F&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIslamic+State" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-164"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-164">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFGerges2016" class="citation book cs1">Gerges, Fawaz A.

Where Wahhabi scholars preach obedience to earthly rulers, Mr. Baghdadi adopted the call to political action against foreign domination of the Arab world that has animated the Muslim Brotherhood, Al Qaeda and other 20th-century Islamist movements.Mr. Baghdadi also borrowed the idea of a restored caliphate. Where Wahhabism first flourished alongside the Ottoman Caliphate, the Muslim Brotherhood was founded shortly after that caliphate's dissolution, in 1924 — an event seen across the world as a marker of Western ascent and Eastern decline.
