But Trump said that he has eliminated ISIS. How could this be.
Including AFP photographer Shah Marai

Shah Marai, the chief photographer for Agence France-Presse (AFP) in Kabul, has been killed in a bombing in the Afghan capital. Here we present a small selection of his work documenting his homeland.

Dear AP, could you please not use “martyrdom seeker” as a description of bombers without at least scare quotes, even if it does make retyping the press release a little more difficult?
I’m just gonna leave this right here, y’all.
April 2016: At his official speech on foreign policy, Trump makes some menacing threats to ISIS, but again stops short from going into any details.
“I have a simple message for [ISIS]: Their days are numbered. I won’t tell them where and I won’t tell them how,” he says. “We must as a nation be more unpredictable. We are totally predictable. We tell everything. We’re sending troops — we tell them. We’re sending something else — we have a news conference. We have to be unpredictable. And we have to be unpredictable starting now.”
He repeats this message weeks later at a speech in Waterbury, Connecticut.
"We’re gonna beat ISIS very, very quickly, folks. It’s gonna be fast. I have a great plan. It’s going to be great. They ask, ‘What is it?’ Well, I’d rather not say. I’d rather be unpredictable
Consider the profound effect this would have on us if Kabul =Washington DC and Kandahar = Texas.
Just a reminder, we are only 463 days into Trump’s 30-day plan to defeat Isis.
