Does not meet notability guidelines

The article has only one valid source in terms of WP:SIGCOV (a book, the other source is primary evidence at a US senate hearing). I can find no hits on google that aren't wiki-mirrors, nothing on google scholar. --Boynamedsue (talk) 19:39, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete - I don't the subject passes WP:GNG. Searching for his name in English returns nothing while searching for his name in Arabic only returns hits on the Syrian actor Samer al-Masry. Sgubaldo (talk) 01:48, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Yes, it is almost certainly not even his name. It follows the pattern for takfiri terrorist noms-de-guerre, [name]-el-[demonym], in this case "Salem the Egyptian".Boynamedsue (talk) 21:04, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
