US raid against Islamic State

[JohnR]

There are always those that call out a R prez that the language is too harsh and will just foster more violence.

Then some of those same gloss over that austere religious scholar.

Reason # 136 you have Trump

A dog insult in their culture is a low blow and they will use Trumps description of his death to recruit the next generation. In typical Trump fashion, he claimed Isis uses the internet better than anyone except him of course, because he always has to be the best.

This is a very bad take, Bob.

Iraqis are rioting in the streets in vast numbers its an incubator for extremists..

And Trumps granstanding and name calling .(yes he deserved to die a horrible death) and ive heard it before he's says it like it is,or hes not a politician or some just like the tough guy act.. for me it only diminishes the office of The Potus ...

And all my years in the service and correction ..

Those who have done the most been or been in the worst battles .. alway Say the least .. but the message was alway clear..

I don't think standard of living is enough (nor will happen). Their religion, at least among the mainstream needs a reformation and their culture makes many of them incapable of pulling themselves forward.

Religion or culture, mox nix, doesn't matter.

Being in IT John and knowing these nuts use the internet almost exclusively for communication and recruitment, I’m surprised you wouldn’t see his comments as damaging. It feeds their hatred hearing their leaders death described that way and provides a great recruiting video for future use. No issue taking a victory lap with commendation for intelligence, military and allies, the comments about how he died are most likely fabricated and completely unnecessary. You of course are entitled to you opinion, I stand by mine.

And I would never squash your opinion ; )

I don't like half of Trumps speeches, sentences, bad theories, and insults.

I think the bad take (also heard when Bush was Pres) was about feeding into their Promotional / Social Media mastery. Being "nice" to these people (the bad ones) is not going to work and has not worked.

I have difficulty taking seriously the wisdom, reporting, and opinions of the like that call Baghdadi an austere religious scholar (WaPo - not you, Bob).

I read the headline of the obit, it was despicable. Baghdadi was arguably the worst human since Bin Laden, WaPo tried to Ansel Adams his Obit.

If they used "austere religious scholar" with the Dalai-Lama they might be technically correct but the commentariat would be near revolution.

That wasn’t the headline of the obit I read on WaPo.
