ISIS in Afghanistan isn’t doing so well.
The U.S. military said it had taken out about 80 percent of ISIS terrorists in one fell bomb swoop this week.
Story continues below advertisement
This is the largest bomb that can be used, outside of a nuclear bomb. And it’s never before been used in combat.
Specifically, military officials estimated only about 600 jihadists remained in Afghanistan, post-bombing.
From Breitbart:
“‘As ISIS-K’s losses have mounted, they are using [improvised bombs], bunkers and tunnels to thicken their defense,’ said Army Gen. John W. Nicholson, top commander of U.S. and NATO forces, after the U.S. strike on the jihadist group in Afghanistan.’This is the right munition to reduce these obstacles and maintain the momentum of our offensive against ISIS-K.’
“‘The Pentagon confirmed that the U.S. military dropped the “mother of all bombs,’ officially known as the GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast, on an Islamic State tunnel complex in Achin district, located in eastern Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province, marking the first time the massive 21,600-pound bomb was used in battle.
“U.S. military officials have identified eastern Afghanistan’s opium-rich Nangarhar province, located along the country’s border with Pakistan, as the group’s primary stronghold in the region.”
ISIS took over that area about a month after Obama and NATO announced the end of combat missions in Afghanistan. At its peak, about 3,000 ISIS terrorists stayed in tha region.
Again, from Breitbart:
“Last October, Gen. John Nicholson, the top commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, warned that ISIS was intent on establishing a caliphate in the Afghanistan region.
“‘Right now we see them very focused on trying to establish their caliphate, the Khorasan caliphate, inside Afghanistan,’ Gen. Nicholson told NBC News.
Most of the ISIS-K jihadists are former members of Pakistani Taliban, or Tehrik-e Taliban, and its Afghan counterpart, according to the Pentagon.“‘Our goal in 2017 is to defeat ISIS-K in Afghanistan,’ American Navy Capt. Bill Salvin, a top spokesman for the U.S./NATO-led coalition in Kabul, told Voice of American at the end of last month.
“‘In 2016, we believed that year began with about 3,000 or so ISIS-K members in about 12 districts in southern Nangarhar,’ added the captain. ‘Right now, we believe there are about 600 ISIS-K members in two or three districts in southern Nangarhar.’
“The Trump administration has taken steps to combat ISIS-K that appear to be paying off.
“President Trump has granted military commanders, including Gen. Nicholson, ‘broader latitude to act independently,’ notes CNN.
“Without explicitly saying whether he personally approved Thursday’s strike on ISIS in Afghanistan, Trump declared, ‘Everybody knows exactly what happens. So, what I do is I authorize our military.'”

America’s winning again, because Trump removed Obama’s strangle hold “rules of engagement” from our military. Trump’s freed up American military field commanders to run their own show…

Well, genius, if they were the right 36 people, then it was more than worth it. Also the psychological effects on the enemy, are priceless.

Agreed. I think they are mentally enfeebled from all the inbreeding and hopefully are in meltdown.
The non-muslim world needs to band together and ban an supplies of goods or medicine which would include all the UN cucks.

Liberals with their identity politics and naive cries for “diversity” have become the pawns for Jihad and Hijrah. Radical Islam is an archaic, primitive belief system that has resulted in millions of deaths and NO forward advance of cultures it infects.
It’s laughable these “progressives”, who are supposed to want societal progress, want to import these refugees into our country and into the West.
We can no longer afford to house these 3rd world invaders. It’s too risky. America is struggling enough as it is. Most of us are making below living wage and had our health insurance forcefully taken away by Obama. My healthcare is up to $520 per month; compare this to my $25 per month car insurance (from Insurance Panda) or my $10/month life insurance. Both private enterprise (take note, Dems). Do we really want our tax dollars aiding these terrorists?
You can’t coexist with someone who wants to chop your head off.

Democrats do not care what you pay. It is all about controlling your life. You must do as the socialist democrats say or “no healthcare for you”. THAT is what government-controlled health care is all about.

Does anyone know how rat obama is doing on ‘gay boy island’? I understand he took all his old sodomite friends from ‘Man’s Country’ with him. Did michelle (or Michael as rat obama frequently called it) change to boy clothes and go?

Besides the number of enemy killed, there are other benefits from the use of such a massive concussion bomb. The smaller version we used in Vietnam was a 6,000 lb. device called a “Daisy Cutter” whose original usage was leveling jungle foliage to create landing zones for helicopters. Besides collapsing the tunnel networks in Afghanistan, the opium crop could be rendered useless as well, costing ISIS a sizable fortune in income. Then there are the psychological implications of using such a weapon.

They should have dropped a few more but hopefully on the next sortie, they add napalm to it. That will burn and splatter these muslim zombies like pig sh-t hitting a wall! God Bless America, The Land of The Big PX and President Trump!

I don’t know how many times in the past that I have said use a M.O.A.B. on ALL Islamic religious sites during their religious holidays when every member of the ” death cult ” of Islam is making a pilgrimage to Mecca and other religious sites.
Then send in ground troops to clean up the stragglers.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Fake News!
US dropped MOAB on empty, deserted tunnels, created/dug by the CIA.
To cover up for domestic failures.

My, Ms. Geller, I thought only the left wanted to eradicate freedom of speech. Never would’ve thought the right was exactly as intolerant as those leftist liberal snowflakes, deleting what I have to say twice.
Thanks, I know now you fighters for freedom of speech are frauds!
BTW; I am NO leftist liberal, I am “real” rightwing, I do not oppose freedom of speech!
Now, go on, show your true colors; delete this one as well!
I will even make a screenshot and spread your (ahum) “tolerance” all over the internet. 😀
One more try;

I caught you on spreading lies several times, because I check & double check every story of yours. If that’s the way we have to win from globalism, neocons, islam et al, then count me out; I want to fight fair & without lies, those tricks are being used by leftist liberal snowflakes, islam & all other enemies of our freedoms & values.
You seem to use the same tricks!

Ms Geller seldom blocks a comment, and never for merely disagreeing or having a unique or unsupported point of view, like yours.
In my experience, posting delays and failures are usually due to comment-system intermediaries like Disqus. For example, I think they actually censor some terms and since they copy everything you post they can leave you behind during very busy periods, particularly if your post is a long one. Problems can also arise from malconfigured browsers that have been compromised by third party add-ons or even viruses.
It’s also possible for browser security systems and Internet service providers to tag a website as being a source of viruses or malware based on reports/complaints from users — users whose motives may not be computer security but the silencing of opinions they hate.
If you keep having problems try downloading a browser that you don’t currently use. Install and use it in its “factory-fresh” state without any modifications and see if you don’t have better luck with it.
