He said, "Most of those people are dead now". I loved hearing that!
Long battle ahead if ISIS is to be defeated. Obama used the military to micromanage and as a leader he did a poor job as a leader. Sorta like running from place to place putting out fires rather than taking them them head on.

Having served in a war zone the only way to come out a winner is to turn the military loose with Victory as the clear and only objective !

More like intentional sabatoge of our military!!
What a difference in having a President that actually acts and allows our elite military the honor of their pledge!!
A man of action not just words!! How long has it been since we have witnessed any such thing ???
But the US military hasn't been unleashed on ISIS. The Afghani's and the Iraqi's have been doing all the fighting--just as they were under Obama, correct!

That goal seems part of the change we've seen since president Trump was sworn in.

The great mystery is... How come it is effective now?
I'll bet you will try to convince us that our military successes are due to Obama actually leading charges in those hideous places.

No, no claims about Obama just that the men and mission from Obama to Trump has remained the same. Using your logic Truman won the second world war. You are welcome to think what you like but both Trump and Truman just continued what their predecessors left to them.

FDR dropped the atomic bomb, too? Hmmmm, there is what I'd call 'stretching it' a bit.
When you used the term "the mission, well.. sure, but what Trump brought was the determination and the will to actually put the mission into serious play. And, guess what; the military likes it.
Technically you are correct but also with some assistance from us we've been backing them giving them support.

Good guy with a gun stops bad guy with gun; good guy with nukes stops bad guy with nukes.. I'm thinking, naturally, about N. Korea & Iran.
Kim yun Insane will use his nukes as will those insane muslims in places like Iran. Those leaders are crazy as poophouse rats and cannot be reasoned with, by all appearances.
To depend upon diplomacy when trying to reason with the insane is insanity itself.
So, will nukes be needed? Needed or not, I think they will be exploded and I see hardy any possibility as rational at this point.
Dark prediction, right? Yup, reality can bring dark thoughts, but... shhhh. do not disturb the children, or frighten the horses.
