Utterly destroying and eradicating radical Islamic terrorists has always been a top priority for President Donald Trump, and it appears another country feels the same way.
Cockpit footage from the Libyan Air Force Dassault Mirage F1 fighter jet shows a slew of massive missile strikes on terrorists near the port city of Sirte.
The three and a half minute cockpit footage begins with the aircraft flying over a beautiful beach. Things got bad for a group of Islamic State terrorists who were positioned alongside the shore.
To be more specific, fighter jet blew the terrorists to smithereens.

I didn’t know there even was a Libya that can put planes in the air. Thought Hillary & Obama pretty much turned it into a tribal mishmash and failed state.
For later.

it is definitely click bait. The content does not even come close to living up to the promise in the title.
Wasn’t it R.R. That fired a few cruise missiles at Libya, and brought them to heel?..........Yes, he did. But fast forward to Bush invading Iraq. Gadaffy was calling all his Muslim buddies screaming for help from which no help came. He was so terrified he got ahold of someone who contacted us and gave up his nuke program, supplies and locations to where completed projects were. The media ignored it all for the most part, but I remember reading where it was Bush’s war won without a shot. SHHHH!!!!
There may have been some cruise missiles, but it was primarily a FB-111 strike.
I’m not sure of what you speak, but Bush never fired anything at Libya. Gaddaffy just got panic stricken when he saw the troops around Iraq and struck a deal with us. Libya wasn’t on the menu.
He did and it was in the 1980s.
It was in retaliation of the Berlin night club bombing & Lockerbie. FB-111 fight had to fly clear around France (maybe Spain too!), they wouldn’t allow overflight.
That may have contributed to the loss of one FB-111.(Tired crew!) After Gaddaffy crawled back into his hole and sponsored no more aggressive. European terrorism. Was quiet for quite some time.
