Osama bin Laden's dream is declared a reality, as the Islamic caliphate is announced by the militants of Isis today, who also demand all other jihadi groups pledge allegiance.
Islamist militants in Iraq have declared the completion of their Islamic state, with a new caliphate under their leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Discarding their previous title of Isis for the simpler IS, they claim that the new state stretches "from Aleppo to Diyala" on the outskirts of Baghdad.
