How U.S. commandos took out ISIS terror chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
The strong implication was that the U.S. either had a human source in his entourage or was monitoring his communications.
The helicopters lifted off moments after the White House meeting assembled. Trump and his team — including Vice President Mike Pence, National Security Adviser Robert O'Brien and Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff — watched a video feed with a definition that the president said was as clear and detailed as one might see in a mall cineplex.What they saw or later learned, as Trump told it, played out just as a Hollywood script-doctor might have written it.
They then began capturing fighters, killing anyone who resisted."A large number" of Baghdadi's men were killed, Trump said. Eleven children were moved to a safe location.
