Not good news. I thought ISIS was dead.

So they had control of an area the size of Texas and now they have control of "part" of a town. Look for them to be eliminated in days! Better than the Obama JV days!

ISIS already lost most of its territory before Trump was elected.

And under Trump they are a shell of their former self. I would be surprised if they aren't blown to bits in days.

Syria is a quarter the size Texas and the caliphate was only a part of that. In addition, most of that "texas size" is uninhabited desert and the fighting and control has always been over towns and connecting ribbons So yes, ISIS retaking a strategic town is a big deal, don't treat them like a JV squad.

It was Syria and Iraq. I trust that Trump will take care of it.
