Another shining example of poetic justice.

That reminds me of that congress man who told the papers that the Japanese have to set their depth charges deeper....
Good point but maybe they decided to claim that as the reason they hit the building in order to protect the spy that really tipped them off to it's location.

Same thing happened when we bragged about geolocating AQ's sat phones.

Pride has no place in warfare.

In this case iI think it a wise choice to in any way attack ISIL main means of recrument social media. If they come to fear using it then it will actually harm them. If they feel unsafe using social media that's good then they are forced to become more clandestine which harms them unlike AQ.
