Abu Azrael, as he is known, is purported to be a legendary commander of the Imam Ali Brigade, an Iranian proxy group fighting in Iraq. He has become a cult figure with Iraqi social media users creating tribute Facebook pages to him and circulating images of Abu Azrael holding axes, waving swords, and abusing the corpses of ISIS fighters.

Do you think this "Angel of Death" is Iranian propaganda, or something more? Please share your thoughts!

Every Country needs their Legendary Ubber Warrior. That Prays to their "Right" God and is built like Arnold and this Character looks like he fits the Bill. Don't think I would want to play "Tag" with him.

It is all the above. It is proof of the culture we are dealing with in the Middle East. This is the kind of behavior that people get behind and support. They won’t think he is so awesome when Iran has him doing the same to Iraqi’s when Iraq asks them to leave when all is said and done. If ever that is a possibility.
