After trump says he knows more than the Generals ? General Votel says isis is not defeated ! Yet another false statement by trump . Might as well get rid of all the Commanders and Generals because trump surly will not listen to them !

The defeat is real in the sense that they are dislocated and on the run. As long as there are fanatics that would call themselves ISIS supporters we will never have fully defeated them. Just like we can never say that the KKK is gone...or that the baby killer, late term abortions are done. ISIS is defeated in the sense that they have lost every inch of ground that they once held. And that amount of ground is huge and a major accomplishment.
We need to keep them on the run. Strafe them with A-10's. Kill them at long range with high powered rifles. Just like we have been doing with terrorists all along. But yes, on the battlefield, they are basically defeated. Defeating them in the sense of their propensity to carry out isolated incidents will never be accomplished. Like chipmuncks and rats, you just have to keep them beat back.

Perhaps in this regard, Trump should do as Obummer did. Any general
or admiral who disagreed with him got axed.

Do you really think our Commander in Chief believes that IS has been defeated? They have been dealt with and are now small scattered pockets. It does not make economic sense to have a division of ground pounders and all of the supporting troops over there looking for small pockets. If a cell gets larger and presents more of a threat, they can be dealt with. Bring the soldiers home and give them a break before they are called upon again.
