Vocativ reported:
Shaken
by a daring U.S. military strike deep in ISIS territory, supporters of
the extremist organization were vowing revenge for the killing of senior
leader Abu Sayyaf or claiming the special operations mission never took
place, a Vocativ analysis reveals.
“If they took Abu Sayyaf, we
will take Obama,” one ISIS supporter posted in the hours after the raid,
which took place near the eastern Syrian city of al-Amr.
Translation:
If your goal is killing Abu Sayyaf then our goal is killing Obama and
the worshipers of the cross. We have attacks coming against you.
Elite
American commandos carried out the rare, overnight military operation,
killing Sayyaf, capturing his wife, and freeing a Yezidi woman believed
to have been held as their slave, the Pentagon said Saturday. Defense
Secretary Ash Carter heralded the mission as a “significant blow” to the
Islamic State.
ISIS supporters also promised to behead President Obama.
