The last of IS-controlled Manbij fell to the SDF today. Awesome footage of YPJ soldiers meeting civilians:

Were they able to rescue the last 1000 hostages?

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

I don't think ISIS believes they're a terrorist group in the eyes of the lord.

there will be no peace as long as Assad is still in power, he is a root cause of the conflict.
He btw doesn't have any army left, its Hezbollah and Iran that does the fighting and Syria will prob be their Vietnam, when the casualties becomes too high they have to pull out and Assad will have nothing left to fight with.

Just look at the Aleppo offensive, even with air superiority etc SAA failed to counter attack despite the fact that the rebels took four days to break though. They are simply not an effective fighting force, even with total control of the skies. There is no way that they can win a military victory.

That was the line spun by your president when he gave Daesh arms and money to fight Assad.

The root cause of the conflict is the age old conflict between Shiites and Sunnis when you really boil it down.  Until that little squabble is sorted out there can be no peace in the Middle East.
