...U.S. Operation Kills ISIS Spokesman in Separate Raid From Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi
The Daily Beast ^ | October 27, 2019 | Anna Kaplan/Spencer Ackerman

Posted on 10/27/2019 11:58:21 AM PDT by LesbianThespianGymnasticMidget

The CIA targeted and killed ISIS spokesman Abu al-Hassan al-Muhajir in a separate raid, from the one that killed ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, a U.S. official confirmed to The Daily Beast. “We never stopped patrolling, we never stopped analyzing intel and developing targets. We just slowed down during the Turkey invasion,” the official told The Daily Beast’s Spencer Ackerman. Newsweek reports that as Trump announced the death of Baghdadi, Hellfire missiles targeted Muhajir by Ayn al-Bayda, near Jarablus in Aleppo province. The operation that targeted Muhajir comes just one day after a raid targeted ISIS’ leader in the Idlib province of Syria, where Trump said he detonated a suicide vest as U.S. forces closed in. Muhajir was named ISIS spokesperson in 2016, according to Newsweek.

Amazing! It appears at least parts of the CIA are still doing good things.

Meanwhile, other parts of the CIA have been waging sedition in the USA and need to be purged.

Indeed!

I am personally AMAZED that Our President is able to accomplish all he has, with the constant ankle-biting and back-stabbing that has been going on.

Cosmic irony is the SNL cold open last night. As our heroes were on their way back from making Baghdadi, BagDeadi... SNL with Alec Ballsack were doing a sketch about how Trump was creating jobs for ISIS.

I guess in a way they are right. Some positions were opened up. Not sure many of them want that job as the marked for death leader of ISIS.

Since these terrorists allegedly operate in cells, one has to wonder if taking out Bag Daddy cuts out the main server to all his followers, leaving them on their own.........

"I like “Seal Team” too. Big fan of David Boreanaz, and it’s well-written."

Yes, it is. It not only gives a viewer an idea how these clandestine operations work, but shows the internal struggles the operators have. I would love to know how realistic it is, but don't want anyone on this board to tell me and make it public.

I had some inter-action with SEAL's in my Navy days and they wouldn't say a word about their missions. Other Spec Ops guys like Delta are the same. They are America's un-acknowledged and un-rewarded spearhead against the monsters of civilization. I love them all.

We just degraded his ISIS spokesman, Abu al-Hassan al-Muhajir, about 2 hours ago driving out of Ain al-Baydah, near Jarablus, heading for Turkey.

Hopefully we can degrade more of his command before the site intel gets stale.

What’s “Aleppo”?

"We gonna win so much you may even get tired of winning"

Donald J Trump, May 20, 2016.

Let me check. OK, still not tired of winning.

Like Trump says, the CIA should stay to working against our real enemies. Brennan should be jailed.
