I remember when Obama was president and ISIS was thriving.
Now all I hear about is them getting their asses killed.
"Done nothing" smh
I'm not going to get into the ins and outs of all of the complexities of the economy, foreign policy, etc.
However, can't ignore a post so disconnected from the facts, especially from you, Rav.
Like it or not, ISIS' infrastructure was destroyed under Obama, He had cut off their connection to their oil supplies, thus eliminating their sources of both income and energy. Most outposts were operating with no power and ISIS fighters were running out of food and didn't have enough money to send home to feed their families. Contrary to popular belief, the extremists with slave wives and indoctrinated children are the minority. The majority of ISIS fighters are just like the majority of fighters in all other arab armies - average poor people fighting for income and representation.
The Kurds and airstrikes had already handled most of this by the time Trump got into office.
