Washington Post columnist Max Boot made a change to his column on Monday after coming under criticism for stating that the late ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was not a coward because he blew himself up over being captured by U.S. forces.
An earlier version of this column included a sentence questioning whether Trump was right to call Baghdadi a coward because he blew himself up, Boot wrote late Monday in explaining the change. The line was removed because it unintentionally conveyed the impression that I considered Baghdadi courageous.
Boot also deleted a tweet in which he essentially made the same argument while also challenging Trump's unverified claim that Al-Baghdadi was whimpering and crying.

Why did he take his kids to begin with? From what I read, he left others behind. Human Shield, Maxie?! The very definition of coward.
.. These facts are being avoided when MSM reports and media portrays a Moslem cleric as a saint. Those facts are; The cleric was following their book of Gods commands one of which orders beheading unbelievers and chopping their heads off. So by US stopping that cleric who dies when doing so. That makes him a hero and a saint. When the Pope thinks when dealing with moslems whatever they believe and do its OK Hes never commented anything about the horrors in that book and some claim even kissed that book and praises them because they believe in the same God. Following the Popes lead We shouldnt expect any different facts and viewpoint from the lefty media.
NO.
