President Donald Trump said Sunday that terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, perhaps the world’s most wanted man, was killed during a special operations raid over the weekend.
“Last night the United States brought the world’s No. 1 terrorist leader to justice,” Trump said at the White House in an early morning televised address to the nation.
Al-Baghdadi led the extremist organization known as the Islamic State, also known as ISIS. Trump said he died after running into a dead-end tunnel while being chased by United States Special Operations commandos in Northwest Syria. Al-Baghdadi detonated an explosive vest that killed him as well as three of his children, Trump said….
No U.S. personnel were killed in the raid, Trump said….
Now for a rendition of Patsy Cline’s ” I fall to pieces.”
Perfectly executed & without putting targets on the backs of our Special Forces. #Neverforget #SealTeamSix
