The ISIS defeat myth: No one talks about ISIS sympathizers and US military remaining in Syria
By Danny Sjursen, opinion contributor — 01/24/18 06:15 AM EST

Under President Obama’s watch, the Islamic State conquered a so-called caliphate the size of Ohio in Syria and Iraq. Luckily a new, “tough” president — Donald Trump — stepped in, loosed restrictions on his military, and, defeated the bad guys. At least that’s the popular story and the party line.

Of course, the ground-level truth is much messier.
