When I first read this story, I didn't read it properly. I was too busy jumping with ecstatic joy and happiness over this fantastic news:-

"He was a sick and depraved man and now he’s gone,” 

It went on to say,

"The thug who tried so hard to intimidate others spent his last moments in utter fear, in total panic and dread, terrified of the American forces bearing down upon him," he said.

"He was a sick and depraved man, and now he's gone,"

Mr Trump died like a dog, he died like a coward."

 

And then I re-read it and felt depressed because I mis-read it.

Mr. Trump SAID, He died like....

I could have cried.

I do appreciate your "sick" sense of humour for a Monday morning. Thank you.

Large numbers of ISIS members who have, as a direct result of Trump’s withdrawal from Syria, escaped or been released from prisons disagree with you.

Anyway, good job. ????

A few ways to do it now days. If you know your target they can make a test 'chip', or the British have invented a pocket sized analyser that pugs into a notebook, not so good for research but fine for this.  I guess they wanted to make sure after previous false claims.

I hope I am wrong but my guess is that there will be a reprisal attack on US soil sometime in the next month or two.

 

Should this happen, Trumps gloating will be, to some degree, responsible in part for such an attack.

I seem to recall that when Saddam Hussein was caught, "W" suggested not to gloat. And I don't recall Obama gloating after the bin Laden raid.

But a peacock is a peacock !

There will be reprisals in many places. Also Christmas is coming and it is a special time for muslims to murder Christians. So we can expect a lot of bloodshed especially in Europe.

Good on everyone involved in taking out these 2. From the guys on the ground up to Trump. That said draft dodgers have no right calling others coward.

Sorry but mainstream media calling the vile Al Baghdadi an "austere religious scholar" and writing a lengthy glowing tribute to him is encouragement. The outpouring of hatred and abuse against President Trump who has done more for peace and prosperity in the Middle East than the last dozen presidents combined, yes, that is encouraging the remnants of ISIS too. People ought to be ashamed of their behavior following this incredible result by Trump. Full credit is due to him, anything else is encouraging terrorists.

Brilliant, and may I add to all of those who are sympathizing with the fanatical ISIS leader, may you and your families cry and suffer the same as the one's you viciously beheaded and burned.

I think the military is one step ahead of these thugs and is already prepared to thwart their evil response

Clearly apocryphal reasoning.  The cowardice of a given person does not depend on who comments on his cowardice.

The blabber mouth just couldn't help himself to give away sensitive military operations that could hinder future raids and plans. 

 

Yet another example of Donald's grandstanding at the cost of others (especially the US Military or US Intelligence officials). Typical.

 

How Trump gabbed too much about the ISIS raid

President Donald Trump’s announcement of the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi revealed a slew of sensitive details about the secret military operation that could imperil future raids, special operations and intelligence, veterans fear.

True, Trump's cowardice is self evident.

Two good things came out about Trump during his press conference.

 

1. He oversaw the operation to take out the most evil man in the Middle East.

 

2. His honesty. Had no compunctions about admitting that it's all about the oil. He isn't withdrawing all troups from Syrtia, he's leaving a contingent to guard the Syrian oilfields as he now claims that they belong to the US and that the US will make many billions from the oil. Went on at length to justify that claim.

 

It formed a major part of the press conference, Trump continually returned to it, yet not mentioned in the OP or anywhere in this thread.

 

At last an American president has admitted that the US involvement in the Middle East and the deaths of thousands of US troups are all about the oil.

Ironic that this president is bragging about this operation and describing the deceased as depraved and cowardly. The same coward who was too frightened to go to Vietnam and got daddy to get a doctors note to excuse him.

What a pathetic, disgusting hypocritical piece of dog5hit this man ( I use the term loosely ) trump is.

Hypocrisy comes naturally to him.

The same man ( to keep good with the god squad ) denying right to choose for women but for whom it is common knowledge he is a big supporter of private abortions.

If nothing else, this thread exposes the pathological anti Trump bias 

where these jokers can't even bring themselves to admit that he

helmed the action to finish off one of the most evil mfkrs on the planet.

 

Good job anti Trumpers, we'll never believe a word you and MSM say from now on.

Glad the guy is dead. The rest of your post, well, I think we'll notice all too soon ISIS is far from dead.

ISIS, like many other terrorist groups can be likened to the Lernaean Hydra or Hydra.

 

Every time a head is chopped off, 2 more grew in its place. For every terrorist leader killed like this guy Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi and Osama Bin Laden were killed someone else took their place and the terrorism doesn.t stop.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lernaean_Hydra

 

 Lernaean Hydra or Hydra of Lerna (Greek: Λερναῖα Ὕδρα, Lernaîa Hýdra), more often known simply as the Hydra, is a serpentine water monster in Greek and Roman mythology. Its lair was the lake of Lerna in the Argolid, which was also the site of the myth of the Danaïdes. Lerna was reputed to be an entrance to the Underworld,[1] and archaeology has established it as a sacred site older than Mycenaean Argos. In the canonical Hydra myth, the monster is killed by Heracles (Hercules) as the second of his Twelve Labors.[2]

According to Hesiod, the Hydra was the offspring of Typhon and Echidna.[3] It had poisonous breath and blood so virulent that even its scent was deadly.[4] The Hydra possessed many heads, the exact number of which varies according to the source. Later versions of the Hydra story add a regeneration feature to the monster: for every head chopped off, the Hydra would regrow two heads.[5] Heracles required the assistance of his nephew Iolaus to cut off all of the monster's heads and burn the neck using sword and fire.[6]

 

 

It's a relief to have a potus with gonads and goes after the bad guys instead of sending them billions of $$$ like obama did.

“He was a sick and depraved man and now he’s gone,” said Trump, adding that capturing or killing Baghdadi had been his administration’s top national security priority.

Said Trump: It was a big beautiful raid. The biggest raid ever. And all done by our great and beautiful patriotic army men directed by my unmatched wisdom.

Good job, The Kurds Spotted Baghdadi. The U.S. Abandoned Them Anyway. 

"Back in March, America’s closest allies in Syria were telling the world where Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was. If Team Trump found the information valuable, they didn’t show it."

The damage that will result from the collapse of the detention centers in the Kurdish areas might well greatly outweigh the benefit of Baghdadi’s killing.

 

fact or fiction 

trump said he told the Putin /Putin said he knew nothing about it 

said he was chased into deadened cave/the pictures show the place on flat land 

pictures show night time bombing and gunfire

final pictures next morning show a completely bombed out building flattened to the ground 

no one could have survived that bombing /and all people there would have been blown to pieces 

next they might tell us the suicide  vest did the destruction

Absolutely. There's a big difference between invading another country and protecting your own territories.

I heard some people said Trump is a liar and we have to wait for confirmation from Islamic State themselves whether their leader really died.
