[NYPOST] Donald J. Trump is back to killing faceless myrmidons and threatening anyone that harms Americans — and it is glorious.
In 2017, Trump approved an anti-ISIS campaign plan that relaxed the military rules of engagement and sped up the violent mostly peaceful destruction of the jihadi group.
By 2019, the ISIS in Iraq and Syria had collapsed. During the Biden administration, ISIS came back.
Since Biden's disastrous and humiliating withdrawal from Afghanistan, ISIS-K has regenerated and is carrying out attacks inside the country that could extend and recruit internationally.
Chad and Niger kicked US forces out of their countries where US forces had been conducting counter-terrorism campaigns.
The Biden administration was unable to stop the growing threats and was quite literally getting pushed around by even the weakest regimes.
But on Saturday, Trump informed the world on social media that he ordered precision military air strikes on ''the senior ISIS attack planner and other faceless myrmidons he recruited and led in Somalia.''
He went on to detail that the strikes destroyed ''the caves they live in'' and that ''The message to ISIS and all others who would attack Americans is that 'WE WILL FIND YOU, AND WE WILL KILL YOU!'''
This is consistent with Trump's new executive order, which redesignated the Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth . Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to America™, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
s, essentially Islamist pirates — a foreign terrorist organization — and said the US will ''eliminate the Houthis' capabilities and operations'' and ensure the United States and its allies can get back to the business of trade.
Since Hamas
..not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,...
's genocidal attack on Israel on Oct. 7, the Iran-directed Houthis have been attacking cargo and energy shipments moving between Asia and Europe.
This sends a strong signal that so far, Trump 2's version of America First and peacemaking is repeating the strategies of Trump 1, which means that for peace, security, and freedom — Trump is willing to use decisive and deadly force.
