[But, but ... why was he whimpering, crying, and screaming?
Isn’t martyrdom, the opportunity to die destroying the enemies of Allah, a sure route to paradise?
Isn’t that what all muzzies should aspire to?
Doesn’t he want all those virgins?
Shouldn’t he be happy to die?
Did he actually believe any of the crap he told his minions? ]

I’d take the rhetoric with a large serving of salt. No one who initiates and fights a major war against impossible odds is a coward. What he was is a cunning and ruthless enemy who started his campaign on a shoestring and might have ended up becoming a latter day Muhammad, absent American intervention. As long as he was alive, ISIS stood a chance of rising from the ashes. Now that he’s gone, ISIS is basically moribund. A very impressive military commander who came to the brink of uniting Arabia under his personal rule.

The President noted that they came to him and noted where others were. He said I wand Baghdadi.

The others must now be very fearful because now they can be exterminated as well.

Well, he certainly was afraid to die, and I'm glad our president rubbed the memory of his nose in it, after what he did to terrorize the world. If only he had faith in the One God, he would have met his inevitable end with dignity and would have begged for his children to be spared. I'd say that killing his own kids with his vest was pretty cowardly.
