A lie from mr. trump....re: DNA test was performed in the field & confirmed.

[spanone]

A Defense Department official said before the president’s announcement that there was a strong belief — “near certainty” — that Mr. al-Baghdadi

was dead, but that DNA analysis was not complete. The official said that with any other president, the Pentagon would wait for absolute certainty before announcing

victory. But Mr. Trump was impatient to get the news out, the official said, and Defense Secretary Mark T. Esper agreed to go on the Sunday morning shows as a last-

minute addition to the programs to promote the apparent success.

1. DNA from his body was compared to DNA from his body.

A beautiful and perfect match

16. My best laugh for October was when M$$Greedia said that the man who has already told over

10,000 lies confirmed that it was Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

6. +1

8. There are field DNA tests that take less than 2 hours.

[question everything]

10. OK. But you have to compare your sample to the known one, as was done with bin Laden

John Brennan, Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism, said the DNA evidence provided a match with “99.9 per cent confidence”. That would require the comparison of DNA from the body with that of people known to be related to bin Laden. Bin Laden had no full siblings, but more than 50 half-siblings and up to 24 children.

17. "Had been our prisoner"? Wow, that is rather strange English. nt

[braddy]

18. He was our prisoner, the wording is fine.

7. Oh, that would be precious, wouldn't it?

We'll have to wait for a Democratic presidency to kill that ISIS sucker off properly.

9. LOL! A DNA test performed right there in the field

Trump obviously never watches the ID network or he would know that it takes weeks to get DNA test results.

[onenote]

15. DNA tests take weeks because labs are backed up

The test itself doesn't take long at all.

You can actually precipitate your own DNA at home using saliva, alcohol, dish soap etc. (Can't remember the experiment) It reaches maximum after about 30 minutes.

11. Please get me the name of the Field DNA company

I want to invest in them tomorrow!

BTW: wouldn’t his children’s DNA test come back with the same results?
