NBC Decries Trump Taking ‘Victory Lap’ After Killing ISIS Leader
EXCERPT:
BASH: "Whereas bin Laden was responsible for the death of 3,000 Americans, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi may not have been a household name in America, but he was the most important leader of ISIS, the terrorist organization that really had two elements, Willie. One was to establish that land-based caliphate in the Middle East, but it also inspired many franchises, many offshoots, people inspired by ISIS and Baghdadi's charisma to conduct operations in France and all around the world. So, I think this is symbolically very important, whether it’s militarily important really depends, because last week or in the last two weeks, President Trump made a decision that really took the foot off the neck of ISIS by taking the ground force that was containing them, the Kurds, and abandoning them."
