The Islamic State group once drew recruits from near and far with promises of paradise but now bodies of jihadists lie in mass graves or at the mercy of wild dogs as its "caliphate" collapses.

Flies buzz around human remains poking through the dusty earth in the Iraqi town of Dhuluiyah, 90 kilometres (55 miles) north of Baghdad, at a hastily-dug pit containing the bodies of dozens of IS fighters killed in 2015.

It seemed that almost every day we were reading about unspeakable atrocities by these monsters. GOD BLESS YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP AND YOU BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN DESTROYING THIS EVIL.

Trump did’t have much to do with their demise.

They were toast when he came into office, now they’re burnt toast.

At least Trump isn't buttering their toast, like the previous White House resident.

I think ISIS should be given a special category of Darwin Awards.

How fitting.

My mistake. It must have been some other president who has allowed the military to do their job without tying their hands.

Actually a real turning point was when Trump untied our militarys hands. That MOAB on HQ was a good example. It was a local call by the theater commander, somthing that was strictly verboten under the pink tutu prince Obama.

He just did what I said he should do. He stopped paying them.

What an ignorant statement.

Do you really think they would be dead under a President Hillary?

They are dead because of Trump.

If the world wants peace, Islam must be extirpated.

Now we need to get some wild boar in there. Take lots of video specifically for the consumption of gee-hawdee wannabes.

Isn’t that the saddest? NO. Kill them all. Kill their families. They are uncivilized brutes who won’t hesitate to murder you and your family.
