The Washington Post was forced to issue a correction after columnist Max Boot said Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi was not a coward because he evaded capture by committing suicide.
Boot initially stated in his Monday column that, "The assertion that Baghdadi died as a coward was, in any case, contradicted by the fact that rather than be captured, he blew himself up."
After backlash from people accusing Boot of praising Baghdadi in an attempt to make a dig at President Trump, the Washington Post deleted the line and issued a correction.
"An earlier version of this column included a sentence questioning whether Trump was right to call Baghdadi a coward because he blew himself up," the paper said. "The line was removed because it unintentionally conveyed the impression that I considered Baghdadi courageous."
Max Boot, a neocon in fine standing, self-identifies as a conservative thus rending the label all but useless.
He looks really Gay.
I never cared for him.
The other leftist tools on TV are normally clownish, but max is obnoxious, arrogant and full of himself.
Impossible to watch
What a buffoon!
With all their goofs recently, the Compost will have to institute a permanent retraction section.
Exactly. He’s a little homosexual boy looking for an identity. The fedora says it all.
I am shocked that this useless cuck isn’t in a dress.
