Yeah here is what "big bomb make big boom kill big bad man" accomplished....NOTHING except to impress Trumpeteers. It wasn`t to be tough on ISIS...It was to get poll numbers back up.
Obama`s decision to pursue OBL.....Calculated, Precise other than the phucked up chopper landing.....And the intel gathered likely led to numerous covert strikes that didnt get chest beating headlines. Early in Obama`s presidency, Al-Queda leaders were dropping like flies without chest beating claims of " bomb the chit out of them!" It got to a point no one wanted to be late for an Al -Queda meeting...Or they elected you as the new head.....Next day GONE.
To Trumpers...."Wow..he is tough on ISIS" Yeah caves blown up...36 dead. Like the ones "hiding" in a cave are trouble. Its the ones living among civilians, Its your neighbor, Because ISIS is an ideology. They are not standing in one spot waiting to be bombed while daring you to. They dont have to cross borders either.
