Washington Post Eulogizes ‘Austere Religious Scholar’ Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

by | Oct 27, 2019

No foolin’.

Not that the U.S.A. under the Obama government, at the constant urging of GOP leaders such as John McCain, and their allies at the Washington Post, New York Times, Daily Beast, Foreign Affairs and all the TV networks, have been siding with the benevolent “moderate” Syrian bin Ladenite terrorists of al Nusra, ISIS and Arar al-Sham all this time or anything.

Besides, everybody knows, despite all evidence, that Iran, not the U.S.A. and its allies, is the “Greatest State Sponsor of Terrorism in the World,” and since they like killing ISIS and al Qaeda, that must mean that the Post is right and Abu Muhammad al Jolani and the other Syrian head-chopping genocidal terrorist lunatics really are a bunch of moderate heroes after all.
