    From the WSJ this morning:

    WASHINGTON—The Islamic State’s leader died during a U.S. military raid in northwestern Syria, President Biden said.

    Mr. Biden said he ordered the raid that killed Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi. U.S. officials say they believe the militant leader detonated a suicide vest as American troops approached.

    “Thanks to the skill and bravery of our Armed Forces, we have taken off the battlefield Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi—the leader of ISIS. All Americans have returned safely from the operation,” Mr. Biden said in a statement.

    He said he would deliver remarks on the operation later Thursday morning.

    Not only that but they even found the VP so she could be there.

    I'm curious as to how Allah is going to deal with this. Since he took his wife and kids along with him does he still get the full allotment of virgins?

    And what about his wife, does she get a similar allotment?

    I think we scored on this one. This will cause our enemies to waste time and resources to merely stay alive. I want them to constantly be looking over their shoulders with their future death lurking in every corner.
