Looks like Assad is out...

If Trump finished the job then it couldn't regenerate under Biden. We knew that they weren't eliminated years ago and he was soundly mocked for saying things we knew were false.

You don't have to agree, or accept that you're wrong. Alas, you're still wrong.

If you find termites in your basement, you will hire an exterminator to eliminate them. He'll also provide tips on how to keep them away. If you ignore those instructions and the termites return, it doesn't mean the exterminator failed to eliminate them in the first place.

Why do I even have to explain this shit?

Try reading it 3X and maybe you'll get it.

As for ISIS, he never had them out of Syria to begin with. The caliphate was broken but pockets of ISIS remained even under Trump's watch. ISIS was never eliminated. That's why you're wrong and will remain wrong. Even in duplicate or triplicate.

Lol. Delightful. Gristle's full-blown TDS is exposed. Never give trump an ounce of credit for anything, anywhere, anytime.

Why don't we qualify it? Can we agree that once al-Baghdadi was eliminated (by US Special Ops on trump's watch, cough cough), it eliminated ISIS from carrying out major terrorist attacks on Western soil?

Under Biden, ISIS has been making a comeback, killing 13 American soldiers at Abbey Gate in Kabul in 2021 and slaughtering 145 Russian civilians at Crocus City in Moscow last March.

He gets credit for breaking the caliphate, killing Baghdadi and eliminating the last major stronghold in Syria in 2020.

He doesn't get credit for eliminating ISIS because he never did. The Joint Chiefs pointed to the threat remaining in their 2020 report and Joint Chiefs and Coalition reports are widely available from 2020 till now.

Claiming that he eliminated ISIS is patently false. Sadly, the job was left unfinished. For a variety of reasons. Assad and Russia (often via Wagner) could have been better partners in that fight.

And now that Assad is out... we have our gift of celebratory fireworks to our old buddies and Israel has moved extensively to secure itself while Assad cowers in Moscow.

Delightful
