Following US raid that kills ISIS leader, media blasts photos of President Trump in Situation Room

So predictable.

A photo taken in the Situation Room during the military raid that led to the death of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi on Saturday stands in sharp contrast to a photo taken eight years ago during the raid that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.

The White House released a photo on Sunday of President Donald Trump, along with Vice President Mike Pence and several senior national security advisers, watching as the U.S. special forces carried out the high-risk raid in northwestern Syria.

The military operation resulted in the death of al-Baghdadi, the leader of one of the world's most brutal terrorist groups. Read more details on the military raid here.
