Multiple reports arising from local sources in the region have indicated that the Biden-Harris regime’s grand accomplishment of killing ISIS terrorist leader Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Quraysh in Syria was far from the great victory that Biden described to the press early on February 3rd, but was rather a narrowly averted military disaster. A poorly planned, half-baked, ‘ready-fire-aim’, mission, with unacceptably high collateral damage that only through a mixture of luck, skill, professionalism, and a just and loving God didn’t cost American lives.
Biden’s Mission To Save His Polling Numbers
Let’s review: The badly botched operation took place over the course of nearly three hours, going on far longer than an operation targeting a single individual with what Biden called “signature preparation and precision” should entail. There were far greater civilian casualties than “every precaution possible” to minimize them would seem to allow for with six women and four children reportedly killed and the loss of a $930 million attack helicopter due to a mechanical or engineering casualty during the mission. All of this speaks to a poorly planned operation, and an alarming lack of operational readiness only prevented from being a catastrophe by the bravery and ingenuity of our special forces. In short: it was FUBAR. And any honest observer can speculate that this rushed, haphazard mission was more than a little politically motivated. With his polls in the toilet, Biden needed a win, no matter how much it cost.

There Is Such A Thing as ‘Too Much‘ Warning
The operation, according to local sources, began with a baffling fifteen-minute ultimatum delivered in Arabic by loudspeaker to the home of Al-Quraysh that apparently allowed for an attempt at escape and some preparation for a violent last stand, or, a brutal and gruesome suicide bombing (In the writing business we call this foreshadowing). This was followed by an assault on the compound and at least one vehicle attempting to flee and ended with a massive explosion that killed Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Quraysh and his family, and the smoking wreckage of an American helicopter nearby.
Arabic News outlet Akhbar Al Aan based out of Dubai, reported that the story on the ground in Atmeh, Syria near the Turkish border is much different from the one the Biden-Harris regime is telling the American people. In point of fact, it appears that US forces didn’t even kill al-Quraysh.

Al-Aan TV reporter Jenan Mousse reported that “Acc[ording] to eye witnesses, an Iraqi speaker who was with the Americans shouted through a loudspeaker during Atmeh raid: ‘You have 15 minutes to surrender & get out of the house.’ However occupants refused & a gun battle erupted,”
“Despite the first news that US forces had killed the ISIS leader, details soon revealed that he blew himself up before the US strikes.
A senior US administration official said al-Qurashi died at the beginning of the operation when he detonated a bomb that killed him and his family, including women and children.
The official stated that Al-Quraishi used a hand grenade, and it was not confirmed until now whether the leader committed suicide, or that he blew himself up by mistake.”
“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,” Biden said, and at least he was right in that sense. It was ONLY because of the skill and bravery of American troops that this complete ‘fuster cluck’ didn’t turn into the ‘Apache Down’ to match Blackhawk Down.
