President Trump confirmed in an address to the nation Sunday that a “whimpering and crying and screaming” Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who as leader of the Islamic State unleashed a rein of jihadist terror around the globe, died during a US special forces raid in Syria.
“Last night the US brought the world’s No. 1 terrorist leader to justice,” Trump said from the White House Diplomatic Reception Room. “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead.”
“He was the founder and leader of ISIS. The most ruthless and violent terror organization anywhere in the world. The United States has been searching for Baghdadi for many years.
Capturing or killing Baghdadi has been the top national security priority of my administration,” Trump said.
Trump said the special forces executed a “daring” nighttime raid and “accomplished their mission in grand style.”
“He died after running into a dead end tunnel, whimpering, crying and screaming all the way,” the president said.

Woodchipper? slow feed?
OMG?
Why are you watching CNN?
Why are you reporting on CNN. We don’t give a rat’s add damn about CNN
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a monitoring group based in Britain, reported that helicopters and a warplane carried out an attack on positions north of Idlib on Hurras al-Deen, an al-Qaida-linked group, and that ISIS fighters were hiding nearby.
The assault lasted nearly two hours with the jihadist forces returning fire against the aircraft using heavy weapons.
Bet ya dollars to donuts that "warplane" was an AC130 raining hell down on those cork soakers.
Well other than hurt leftist feelings but I think we can safely say they really aren't US casualties either.
I think you are right.
Feet first, so they can see what's coming!!
That statement in particular must’ve really riled up congressional jihadis Omar and Tlaib. Hopefully they’ll take the bait.
Donald Trump could be talking about the disloyal, Trump-hating Left.
And that's true on its face. It's almost axiomatic.
There are plenty of ways of impugning a creep like Al-Baghdadi without further bastardizing the language.
Halt just before the balls.
Good. I’m glad his children are dead. Kill the rest of em I say. Women, children, ALL of them. No successors. F##k them!
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi wanted to meet 72 Virgins but instead he met 72 Virginians, pursued down a hole by a US Special forces dog,a heroic dog, the very loyal animal hated by Mohamed.No martyr is he.
Kudos to President Donald J. Trump and our brave mission patriots!
Except he took 3 children with him as shields...
That would have been horrible to watch
Also blowing up our military K9s that were chasing him..
The president CANNOT divulge classified material since the moment he utters it it becomes DE classified.
Unlike that slob Obama, Trump looks professional. There is more to fear from Trump and his crew than Obama in the situation room picture during the operation that killed Osama. Obama and his crew in the room looked wimpy.
““I would love to see the video of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi crying and screaming””
i was thinking the same thing: I hope the special forces had vest cams to record this ...
“Also blowing up our military K9s that were chasing him.”
Died like a dog with dogs. That’ll play well on ‘the Mahdi’s’ reputation.
“$25 million its reward offer for information leading to the location, arrest, or conviction of ISIL leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi”
the reward should go to whomever tipped off our soldiers about his location and how to neutralize him ...
