White House Releases Photo Of Trump Watching Baghdadi Raid From Situation Room
The Daily Caller ^ | October 27, 2019 | Chuck Ross

The White House on Sunday released a photo of President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence watching from the Situation Room as U.S. troops carried out a raid of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s compound in Syria, that ended with the Islamic State leader killing himself with an explosive vest.

Trump and Pence were joined by National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien, Secretary of Defense Mark Esper, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley, and Brig. Gen. Marcus Evans, the deputy director for special operations, as they viewed the nighttime raid Saturday.

U.S. Special Operations forces led the raid of al-Baghdadi’s compound in Barisha, in northern Syria.

Trump said that al-Baghdadi died after U.S. troops forced him into a dead-end tunnel at the compound, “whimpering and crying and screaming all the way.”

“He died like a dog. He died like a coward. The world is now a much safer place.”

He died after detonating an explosive vest, killing three children along with him, Trump said. (RELATED: ‘Whimpering And Screaming’: Trump Details Baghdadi’s Last Moments)

Trump said Baghdadi’s body was mutilated by the blast, but U.S. forces were able to positively identify him through a DNA test.

This is what real, serious men look like.

In contrast, the picture of the same room with Obama called off the golf course and still dressed for it, Hillary Clinton about to throw up, as they watched Bin Laden get it.

He died by his own hand and killed his children in the process when he detonated his suicide vest.

Hillary was drunk that’s why she looked that way. Unlike her hubby, the Hill is not a happy drunk.

If I recall correctly, the radical types such as Michael Moore, were against us killing Bin Laden, saying he should have been brought to America for trial, etc.

I wonder if Michael Moore and his ilk, will similarly condemn our killing of this ISIS leader, saying he should have been taken alive, yadda yadda yadda.

I expect some to condemn this, just because it was Trump who did it. Because the killing of Bin Laden happened on Obama’s watch, the criticism was muted because, just because Obama could do no wrong in their eyes.

Obama looked like a tiny, inconsequential bystander in his situation room photo.
Trump is a real leader.

Sly and the Family Stone

....excerpts....
It’s a family affair, it’s a family affair

One child grows up to be
Somebody that just loves to learn
And another child grows up to be
Somebody you’d just love to burn

You can’t leave, ‘cause your heart is there
But you can’t stay, ‘cause you been somewhere else!
You can’t cry, ‘cause you’ll look broke down
But you’re cryin’ anyway ‘cause you’re all broke down!
////////////////////////////

Actually there is nothing funny about an adult destroying his own children due to his own cowardice for radical Islam.
Children are not born guilty and hopefully God will help them.

That article - from The Pickering Post - said that John Brennan overrode the objections of other CIA personal to grant visas to the men who turned out to be terrorists.

This is chilling - especially since he supposedly is a muzzie convert. Was the MB head of our CIA? And I have to wonder if Obama was only a front for the MB - taking orders from someone outside the country.

That’s what they accused POTUS of with Russia which of course is ridiculous but in Obama’s case I can see it happening.

Romney’s advisor Joseph Cofer Black....

At least Romney hired a Black for the job. That’s diversity right there. No wonder they love Pierre Delecto on CNN and MSNBC.

I'm sure that was deliberate.

He knows the muslim world was watching and he's doing what he can to portray him as NOT a hero to be martyred.

Excellent move.
