It's AP, so small excerpt.

Raqqa is "capital" of supposed ISIS caliphate, and it may be close to falling. Team Trump is crushing ISIS!! There will still be online recruiting and propaganda, but the era in which ISIS can control large geographic territory and resources is coming to an end!!

Thank you, President Trump and our great military forces and allies!!

ISIS fighter surrender should immediately lead to his/her feet being slow roasted over and open pit followed by his/her eyes poked out with a hot table fork followed by an inch per minute slow feed feet first into a wood chipper.

Bagged and sold as fertilizer in Israel.

It is a systemic collapse.

The ISIS can no longer pay them or feed them.

In Iraq over 1,000 surrendered.

That information is being filtered in media. I witnessed it on Twitter. The search function said it could not respond to my search about it.

Twitter search>
“1000 ISIS surrender”
Search results> “Sorry, we couldn’t complete your request.”

Here is a similar article to the one I searched for.

ISIS Fighters, Having Pledged to Fight or Die, Surrender en Masse

Guilty until proven innocent, while denying defense, justice, mercy or any appeal. No pardon, ever.

Execution, decapitation, and mount the heads on a row of posts along all the roads leading into Raqqa.

That’s THEIR rules of engagement.

some estimates say ISIS could be finished in Raqqa as soon as tomorrow!

Islamic State faces imminent Raqqa defeat, Syrian YPG says

AIN ISSA, Syria/BEIRUT (Reuters) - Islamic State is on the verge of defeat in Raqqa, once its de facto Syrian capital, and the city may finally be cleared of the jihadists on Saturday or Sunday, the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia told Reuters.

So... you want them to keep fighting and costing innocent lives, right up to the last?

Surrender has to give them something, even if it is only a couple of days of decent meals before they are executed.

There has to be a way of simply executing these dudes after they ‘surrender’, otherwise they’ll simply be back again, once conditions change (such as after we elect another Democrat).

When the British were wiping out Thugee in India, they required cooperation and information as the price of life. Otherwise, they executed them.

Those that cooperated were branded on the forehead and exiled.

It is possible.

Just read this: (did not like the statement, doubt CentCom does either)

http://sdf-press.com/en/2017/10/statement-to-public-opinion-5/

Statement to public opinion

We are the elders of the tribes of Raqqa declare that we are in order to end the bloodshed and to put an end to the tragedy of our people who are stranded inside the city and after they were stopped by the terrorists and the hypocrites and there was only a few trapped in one or more points within the city, they have nothing but surrender or option the death. We appealed to Syrian Democratic Forces to settle the remaining situation inside the city from the local fighters and ensure their exit into areas outside the city with our assurances, and the Syrian Democratic Forces agreed on the content of this appeal.

We are now organizing a mechanism to remove these deceived and deceptive people in order to preserve the lives of civilians who have taken them as human shields and to protect the rest of the city from destruction and destruction.

Therefore, we declare to the public that we, as elders of the Al-Raqqa clans, will ensure the lives of those who will be removed .

We hope that we will move to other areas with steps to ensure security and peace in our country and to be cleansed of the abomination of terrorism and injustice and to live like others in our heroic city, who fought terrorism on behalf of the world.

We reiterate our thanks to the Syrian Democratic Forces who reacted positively to our call, understanding the nature of our tribal society and demonstrating their keenness on the lives of defenseless civilians.

Syria has lived a free and pluralistic democracy

Death to terrorism and victory for our peoples

Where did you get that...

Trudeau Junior gave a terrorist released from Gitmo 8 million for his inconvenience of being locked up there.
Liberals repeat mistakes and bad judgment as policy.

The Saudi subsidies have stopped and they can no longer sell stolen oil in Turkey. ISIS does not have the money to pay its soldiers. No pay, no fight.
