I give a fuck. Misframing the left's supposedly new-found respect for someone like Baghdadi minimizes their position and allows them to slink back under cover where they can continue to push propaganda that is more subtle in order to advance things further leftward in the West, as they have been doing for decades. Not calling them out for what they are, and instead providing them an excuse for their disgusting support for humanity's worst and most violent offenders, hides the true worldview lurking underneath their recent not so subtle propaganda, this time produced in reaction to an action taken to hurt their real long term goals, the operational killing of a terrorist leader that they put American troops on the ground in Syria in order to supposedly fight. If that's why we got involved there, then why are they now canonizing the leader of that terrorist organization and deriding the president who issued to order to take him out? I think it is because their plan there contained many moving parts, and Trump just rendered one of them inoperable. They will get in bed with mass murderers to realize their goals. In fact, they prefer to.
