Isil defeated in its last Syrian town as jihadists mount final stand

Well, so much for the "world wide caliphate" Abu. Their demise couldn't happen to a nicer cult.

Is that monumental piece of dogshit Abu Al Bagdadi dead?

ISIL/ ISIS might be defeated on the battle field but they're still a significant threat just as Al Qaeda and other Islamic Extremists Terrorist groups are.

Sad but true. While their territory may be reclaimed and their fighters killed, their ideology still remains to live another day.

This is why we'll never win the war on terror. It's a war on an ideology, not a nation state.

Nobody knows. The article suggests he could be trapped and hiding out in the badlands around Hajin.

Could be dead.

Could be living in a palace with Assad or Erdogan.

The War against Islamic Extremism will rage on for decades with loses and wins. One of the reasons the United States will not leave Afghanistan is Pakistan, because as Obama said it's what kept him up at night.

Isn't Afghanistan about to enter into a "power-sharing" agreement with the Taliban?

You're right but we can certainly mitigate the damage they can do by:

Not inviting them back to Canada after they commit atrocities in other countries;

Not inviting them to live in our country after they've show radical tendencies in other countries;

Not allowing Muslim religious leaders in Canada to radicalize the ignorant 12th century history loving Muslims in our own country;

Removing Muslim immigrants from our country when they become radicalized;

If, they're radicalized citizens put them in jails with reeducation programs and keep them their till they're deemed safe for release back into population,

And finally, stop bowing to their religious demands because no one religion should be granted any special privilege that is contrary to Canadian beliefs and morals and finally;

Withdraw completely from the UN Migration Pact and take back our right as a sovereign nation to decide who we accept into Canada as refugees, and immigrants.

I completely agree with you.

Think it's just talks right now but ether way the United States Military will probably remain to make sure Afghanistan doesn't become a safe haven for Terrorist groups and to keep an eye on Pakistan.

Any Canadian who went to join the caliphate is no longer a Canadian citizen.

The Taliban are not allied to ISIS

and they had very little clue what they were taking on with AQ. They have reverted to being a xenophobic, tribal insurgency and would be difficult to distinguish from many of their local opponents on values, unfortunately.

Although the ISIS caliphate is gone, for now at least, the movement endures in Syria, Iraq and around the world. Trump’s false declaration of victory is merely an attempt to excuse his retreat from the field. What is most depressing is seeing the Kurds abandoned. The Turks are already bragging about wiping them out.

As ISIS fades into obscurity lets look back on that 6 year plan....


They were so close to their dream. So close.

We won against Japanese militarism, Italian Fascism, and National Socialism. All three were ideologies and all three were utterly defeated.

But you cannot defeat radical and fundamentalist Islam when our leaders are unwilling to call it out for what it is.

That's why we can't win is because we're not willing to win.
