Who Deserves the Blame For Letting ISIS Leader Escape?

Posted On 24 Jul 2017

There’s been something of a four-way blame game going on this week between The New York Times, Fox News, President Donald Trump, and officials of the Obama administration. At issue is a foiled 2015 plot by U.S. forces to capture and/or kill ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Baghdadi, as we know, ultimately escaped at that time (although recent rumors indicate that he may have finally gone on to his eternal reward – his eternal fiery reward, if there is any divine justice), and now there are conflicting stories as to why.

In an interview with Fox News’s Catherine Herridge last week, Gen. Tony Thomas of Special Operations Command said that his team was closing in on the ISIS leader in May 2015 after a raid in which another top ISIS chief, Abu Sayyaf, was killed. Special forces took Sayyaf’s wife into custody and began extracting intelligence that provided new insight into the operations and movement of the Islamic State.

Shortly thereafter, The New York Times published a report on the raid, quoting sources inside the Obama administration on background. Those sources, according to the Times, provided the paper with “confidential intelligence assessments” that opened up “additional details about the materials recovered from the house of Abu Sayaff, a nom de guerre for a Tunisian militant whom American authorities have since identified as Fathi ben Awn ben Jildi Murad al-Tunisi.”

In his interview with Fox News, Gen. Thomas said that while the intelligence gathered in the raid was invaluable, giving special forces a “very good lead” on the whereabouts of Baghdadi, that lead “went dead” when the information was leaked to the press. While Thomas did not specifically call the New York Times out by name, the timing of the story was too right to be coincidental.

Thomas’s comments were reported on by Fox & Friends, catching the attention of none other than President Trump, who took the opportunity to bash the Times for their reckless reporting.

“The Failing New York Times foiled U.S. attempt to kill the single most wanted terrorist, Al-Baghdadi,” Trump wrote in a tweet. He subsequently accused the paper of putting their “sick agenda over national security.”

The Times, eager to defend their reputation, fact-checked the Fox report and Trump’s claims the next day in their Sunday edition. In that article, the Times (naturally) excused themselves of any responsibility, instead pointing the finger at the Obama administration. In the report, they claimed “the information in the Times article on June 8 came from United States government officials who were aware that the details would be published.”

In a duel between the Obama administration and the New York Times, we don’t even know which side to take…but it does go to show how leaked information can harm a president’s agenda, even when that president is someone other than Donald Trump.

    The attempt to undermine President Trump’s agenda , obama’ administration “leakers” caused a military disaster putting the military in a dangerous position in harms way! These leaks have got to stop for the sake of national security and the security of our service people! Stopped either by the administration, the news media or by the FBI or CIA ; with charges of treason to the leakers and or the newspaper editors responsible for the leak in the press! Then and only then will the newspapers be careful what they print without clearing it with the military or the administration first

    There is much more than what we were taught in all levels of ‘Public Education”. Without wars and enslavement of people under puppet govenment control, the financiers of the NWO would decrease their profits. A Biblical World view helps but as an over view,
    . The “anti-Trump” operatives, politicians and legislators either have an ill founded anti-American passion or have been bought through massive bribes, [donations, gifts, campaign funding…], extortion [entrapment by evidence of sexual or other character destructive exploits] or some psychological indebtedness to their perceived benefactors.
    . These benefactors (via lobbyists) are of the establishment which is the shadow government directed by a cartel of international and big bankers who control us (our country) as a legal corporation. This cartel also controls the NWO via the UN, One World Bank, IMF and their international laws which emanate from the headquarters in Brussels and foreign based banks. [They want to disseminate every structured government and ruler so they can enslave all by their central power…hence they use Obama as the person who did more damage to our country than any man in history and they are richly rewarding him and his team for that]
    . I cannot think of any agency or department recently established or expanded that benefits “We the Taxpaying People”. These entities use our taxpayer funds for their corporate research/studies to only benefit themselves or create barriers for competition [E.G. limit new medicine or product approvals while hiding proof to continue their use of harmful but profitable ones].
    . Within Establishment leadership, many are secretly entrapped by or members to Skull and Bones, Bilderberg, Illuminati, Bohemian Grove, … and I cannot identify one with a Biblical world view within the names I searched. In 2012 the DNC eliminated and denounced all mention of or references to God.
    . I believe President Trump is fulfilling his promises (our “Election Prayers”) and often is in direct opposition to the Anti-God control and beliefs of the Establishment. As a result, the Establishment’s well-funded ‘anti-trump’ effort creates, distorts, embellishes and fabricates every form of disruption, slander, scandal and lie to destroy this presidency and uses their willing media to shamelessly and repeatedly promote them. Being anti-God, they do not see the risk of those following the Koran which is Satan’s counterfeit and antitheses of God’s Bible. See http://www.GodAuthoredBible.com .
    . Yet, with hundreds of hired lawyers, investigators & reporters, not even one accusation has substantiated, presented with verified evidence or proven valid. Now most people are awakening to the Establishment’s corruption and are becoming very aware of what is happening. Please pray for this administration.

      While there are a ‘select’ few (like you) who understand that these world conflicts (and conspiracies) are only the consequence of a spiritual battle, most are deniers; which is a real shame because if one does not understand and identify their ‘real’ enemy, they cannot possibly hope to overcome that enemy!

    any 1st Amendment Rights or guarantees because the news isn’t informative for the
    People, but to aid the enemy. I say the FBI, DOJ and even President
    Trump should press charges because this information aides the enemy AND
    put’s our forces at risk. I bet these scumbags would even capitalize on
    any casualties that would stem from a kill or capture order based on
    leaked info to push THEIR agenda.

    FOIA Reveals Obama Administration Released Hundreds of Illegal Alien Sex Offenders

    It is way, way past time to take the gloves off sheeple, especially you useful idiots on the Left; we are being played as fine fiddles! The Godless, Satan worshipping, power-mad, NWO-elitist ghouls are using Islamic terrorism and the immigration crisis as their tool to fool the Fools. These diabolical bastards are playing chess while the sheeple are playing tiddly-winks and have their heads so far up their asses and their cell phones sewn to their ears that they can’t realize that these ghouls don’t want to stop these horrific planned attacks on humanity. They are indirectly behind them as they feign wanting to stop them but once again they had this sub-human on the radar screen – like many others, even in our country – but somehow they escape capture until all of the murdering takes place, WAKE THE FUK UP! They then trot out their black-clad, jackbooted, heavily armed thugs as a show of force to intimidate you innocent sheeple and scare you half to death so that you never ever think about doing the right thing and revolting against the NWO-elitists! We are down the shit hole of tyranny but the sheeple have been dumbed-down, drugged-up ( legal and illegal ), brainwashed, PC bullied into acting as the zombies that they have become! The only response , pathetic and superficial at that, is to place flowers and teddy bears at the scene of the murders and sing kumbya while the devil worshipping pols reiterate the usual feckless, meaningless drivel and then life goes on as if nothing happened and there was even one reply from some leftist ghoul that said you can expect this to continue – baa, baa, bleat the sheeple, give “US” more, we like taking it up the ass! Now we have the Satan worshipping ghouls, formerly the democ-rats and now the Communist Party USA shutting down free speech and stopping investigations into murders because they would be exposed as the killers that they are! They are stopping anyone that dares speak out against them i. e. Trump, O’Rielley, Hannity and they want to even take over the internet with the faux “Net Neutrality” to stop any free speech as they deem constitutes hate speech AGAINST THEM! WAKE THE FUK UP! I myself have had enough and I declare that: REVOLUTION will be the final SOLUTION or subject your sorry asses to a life of misery, squalor and serfdom while these Godless ghouls live as the kings and queens that they currently are doing on your dime and mine! It will get much worse unless it is addressed “RIGHT” now! Our country, freedom, pursuit of happiness are on the line but unfortunately the sheeple – most of them – couldn’t care less but they will when it is too late – guaranteed! Armr==========================? – – – we will be needing them!

    I believe president Obama is the main reason for this ISIS empowerment.
    First, he removed US security forces in Iraq on 2011, allowing ISIS to take over including all US military equipment. Then ISIS moves on taking banks and oil field of Iraq. On 2014, Obama was asked to stop ISIS. But he refused calling ISIS a JV Team.
    On 2015, Obama funded the Syrian rebels $500 million, ending with 2 rebels left, most rebels joined ISIS. Where did the $500 go? I think ISIS took them.
