Speaking recently with Deputy Assistant to the President Sebastian Gorka, I learned there is room to entertain the possibility that al-Badri, if located, may well fall into the hands of the US and its allies in the region, such as the Kurdish forces known as the YPG.
“Do we want al-Badri alive?” I asked.
“Unlike the Obama administration, we’re not going to second guess the theater commanders,” Gorka explained. “We’re not going to have the eight thousand mile screwdriver that literally was the last eight years. We will leave those decisions to how you effectively neutralize an HVT, a high value target, to the people who are there on the front line.”
Gorka then posited out loud about al-Badri in captivity, using the analogy of the nine-year pursuit and US-sanctioned killing of the surrounded Al Qaeda chieftain Osama Bin Laden in 2011.
“If I had my druthers, I’ve always said, in the last 16 years, it would have been superlative to have had Osama Bin Laden in an orange jumpsuit in the dock in a federal court. Not just from the treasure trove of intelligence that could have been gleaned from him from interrogations, but simply the psychological warfare aspect. The great leader of the global jihad is standing in a dock shackled to his waist by a chain. So that’s just my druthers.”
I agree with this measure and have corresponded with several of my colleagues, such as the Johns Hopkins historian Michael Vlahos, about the historical models for how an empire can manage a condemned outlaw and his followers.
The Spartacus rebellion in the Gladiator War was answered by Rome with the spectacular ruthlessness of crucifying six thousand of the defeated slave army long the Appian Way. Spartacus himself was never found.

Bury it at sea. 8>P
Kill em all
And the press asks as if this is a bad thing?
Keep him under wraps for 4 months. Then a public showing of him nude with female genitalia. Then put him in a men’s prison to see if anyone wants it.
Why doesn’t he just make his way to California, Sanctuary, and live in West Hollywood??
Hopefully we wouldn’t hear a thing about it until the rest of them were quickly wiped out. I think the fight is underway to remove ISIS in a serious way, without announcing to the world what’s going on.
I think Trump would slip the evil leader into Gitmo and hopefully look for a way to waterboard him.....or worse.
A new tenant for Gitmo....
“Give him to Kurdish fighters for safekeeping.”
You win best solution of the day!
I suspect the US will never “catch” him. The Kurds might, though.
First - waterboard it.
Second - shoot it.
Send him to Gitmo and give him a show trial for the nation to watch—a month long and at the end hang him like Saddam Heisean.

Not before we get how much aid Obama and McCain gave ISIS. Then we try those bastards with him.
Give him to President Assad
Maybe let Putin “catch” him so he can get what he deserves. I certainly hope Sessions won’t try him in NY
Have a news conference with champagne?
Drug him and make commercials of him pushing Jimmy Dean's pork sausage....
