t didn’t take long, Trump is already delivering on another major promise he made on the campaign trail and in his inaugural speech: the complete and total destruction of ISIS.
Secretary of Defense James ‘Mad Dog’ Mattis took the fight to ISIS on his first day as the new Secretary of Defense. The U.S. bombed ISIS 31 times in what is surely just a warm-up for the aggressive Trump & Mattis. The attacks took place in Syria and Iraq.
From The Pentagon:
U.S. and coalition military forces continued to attack Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant terrorists in Syria and Iraq yesterday, Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve officials reported today.
Officials reported details of yesterday’s strikes, noting that assessments of results are based on initial reports.

“The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some a**holes in the world that just need to be shot.”
-James “Mad Dog” Mattis-
Good. They got a free pass from bammy.
This just shows how lame Obama was and who’s side he was really on. He could have done this anytime if he was really interested in destroying ISIS.
Just wait until we start joint operations with the Russians.
>With supplies cut off and no money for oil anymore, I would think it’s just a matter of time though, no?
Supplies haven’t been cut off. Smuggling is endemic all over the middle east and the Saudis are still funding them. Trump is going to need to slam the Saudis hard. Heck, a shipment of US TOW missiles was just intercepted by the Syrians from a Saudi source the other day.

Well yeah. But after all this is Trump’s first Monday. He’s already getting things done though. I take that as more winning!
Somebody needs to get him a gig

you didn’t have to wait long... :) http://www.debka.com/article/25889/
Thanks for the correction. Saudi Arabia still owes us and I want the payment in blood for my fellow 3000 NYers who died 15 years ago.
“What do you think of waterboarding Mr. Trump?”
“I love it”
Makes me giggle every time.
If I am correct, we just bombed ISIS more times in a day or two under Trump/Mattis, than we did under Obommie for the first month of operations in 2014 or 2015 or whenever we started late in the game.
That’s the difference between having a Marxist as a president, a Secy of Defense who was a coward and a Joint Chiefs of Staff that was an asskissing, kaotowing bunch of gutless hasbeens (if they didn’t want to be any of these, they would have resigned in protest. None did, including Clueless Dempsey).
Looks like the spirits of Hap Arnold, Curtis Lemay and Chennault are back in the DOD and White House.
[[ISIS is an extremely effective army by middle eastern standards. They beat the Turkish army up so badly that they retreated earlier this week.]]
The reason ISIS fights hard is they know that if do the normal muslim turn tail and run ISIS members will kill them and make it very painful .
ISIS has spread all over the Levant
ISIS has spread all over the world, but they only occupy ground in Syria and Iraq.
They are not in Israel.
Obama was giving them implicit support by using Levant indicating their was no legitimate state of Israel.
Reminds me of what an old Texas Ranger once said...”There are certain people who just need killing, and I a just the man for the job.”
