He'd certainly be a keynote speaker at the convention. Give him a copy of the Constitution as a prop!

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.

Run him as head of the DNC?
Ah too bad. I heard they have some "interesting" interrogation techniques for terrorists.
Vlad Tepes gave us the answer hundreds of years ago. A new forest should spring up in iraq, with al-bagdadi at its center.
He'd certainly be a keynote speaker at the convention. Give him a copy of the Constitution as a prop!
Yeah, a typical RDDB reporter's response. Or perhaps a bunch of spineless Republicans. “Oh woe is me! You don't mean we might have to actually kill him do you?"
Not a federal court. He would be lawyered up and you wouldn't get any information. Better a military tribunal at GITMO, and only after a very long interrogation at an undisclosed location in a friendly country where waterboarding would be a break from the real interrogation methods.
Call John McCain and ask him to come bail out his buddy?
He’s our Bag Daddy!
(She’s our bag lady...:?)
ya had me till you shot him in the head..
someone else mentioned fire ants and honey.
.45 is to quick.
Well that didn’t work!
Nothing
Bahagadi is an Iraqi problem
Oh well! - mod please remove both posts and Thanks!
Put him under House Arrest at the 0bama’s Compound.
I can imagine him in a federal prison. The liberal lawyers would make sure he lives in luxury. He will be a leftist icon. Colleges will rename their libraries after him. “Human rights” groups will demonstrate in his favor. He will broadcast lectures from prison. He will deliver talks titled, “How to Beat Your Wives” and “The Uses of Child Slaves” and leftist and radical feminist groups will be eager to listen to his lectures and praise them.
Whether I agree with this will depend on if the Pay-Per_View charge will be reasonable for everybody.
If the Trump administration is smart it wont capture Bagdadi but instead have shoot to kill orders. Then drop the carcass from a plane into the middle of the ocean.
Thanks Moose! I knew someone would come to my rescue!
