How many times have I read news about Al Baghdadi’s “death”, “critical injury” (note the quotes), etc.?

I’ve read about this for nearly 2 years and here we are with another “news”. This man has more lives than a cat.

Either:

1) We have many terrorists with the same name

2) He’s alive and people are impersonating him.

3) These are fake news.

Trump was not kidding when he said he will blow ISIS into bits and pieces. Trump’s new SOD General Mattis wasted no time and destroyed 31 ISIS targets his first day. Mattis is the perfect man to eliminate ISIS. Daily Caller reported: Newly minted Secretary of Defense James Mattis celebrated his first full day at the Pentagon by overseeing 31 strikes against the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. Mattis entered the Pentagon Saturday with a smile for his first full day of work, and for good reason, considering the significant bombardment ISIS forces received. A variety of fighters, bombers and remotely piloted aircraft engaged in the bombing run, which saw 25 strikes in Syria and six in Iraq. In Syria, two strikes destroyed ISIS units and artillery near the town of Bab. ISIS forces in Raqqa, the terrorist group’s de facto capital, took a heavy beating, as 22 strikes destroyed 12 tactical units, nine fighting positions, two underground improvised explosive bomb factories and an ISIS headquarters. The final strike targeted two ISIS oil wells in Deir ez Zour.

My good friend gone!

Obama was heard to say sadly "If I had a son he would look like Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi."

I suspect that Obama and his crypto- muslim CIA chief had good idea where al-Baghdadi has been hiding all along.

Remember - the Saudis, Gulf States and probably even Clinton/Obama simply see ISIS as a temporary, useful tool to achieve the overthrow of Assad, Sunni control of Syria, and provide a strategic defeat to Russia.

I clicked through and read the article. unless I missed it, it wasn’t clear which strike injured him. Whether it was the last strike on Obama’s watch or Trump’s first strike wasn’t made clear.

There have been numerous reports in the past of al-Baghdadi being wounded in airstrikes. Wait and see.

So far, all rumors of Al-Bagdadi croaking have been proven greatly exaggerated.

Remember Saddam Hussein was killed at least 3 times before we captured him. -Tom

From past reports, hasn’t he been killed about a dozen times already?

More beginner’s luck, that and Obama set President Trump up for success. Everything that goes well over the next eight years will because of Obama’s brilliance, just like everything that went wrong over the past eight years was because of Bush’s failures.

He’s been killed many times.

Best way to verify is to monitor Lindsey Graham’s choice of clothing.

This time Bag Daddy had to be killed for real because he might start talking about his good buddies and financial supporters in DC.
