The Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) declared the city fully liberated on Friday, saying they were “starting a new history after closing the book of darkness”.

After we created ISIS and kept funding it, now comes this heart-shattering Potemkin Village scene of Muslim women rending their burkas.

As we used to say in Newark, gimme a break.

“Why did you take so long?” sobbed one woman

You know, I can at least intellectually understand what she's saying. But good Lord, what have her fellow muzzles been doing to help her ... Nothing.

Is it even in their vocabulary to say "thank you" without complaining?
