Ayman al-Zawahiri Dead

[togor]

According to Fox News.

Blown up via drone strike in downtown Kabul.

Good riddance.

All that means is someone else is waiting in the wings to take his place . . . . .so nothing changes!

Sorta’ like when the media shows HUGE drug busts with pics of STACKS of drugs . . . .

They take those particular drugs out of distribution, only to make room for the tons and tons more awaiting to come into this country . . .so nothing changes! (the only way to stop illegal drug usage in this country is through education!)

Nobody said this was the end of terrorism, but on the balance, taking out Islamic terrorists seems preferable to not taking out Islamic terrorists.

I know, confusing times for some people.

kinda demoralizing when you get vaporized on you own balcony

True, but this is also about retribution. This is capital punishment for the deaths of the thousands of people this guy is responsible for.

It will disrupt things for a while; it'll take a while for a new Head Butcher in Charge to be selected.

And so much for the Taliban and Pakistani ISI not supporting terrorists anymore. Screw those guys.

And we'll kill him, too.

Did he do good on this one or not ? You likely wouldn't have asked that question if Trump had signed the order to eliminate the prick .

Nobody here was willing to credit Obama for signing the order to kill Osama Bin laden .... the military did it we all said here .

America did it whether lead by a Dem or a Repub ... America did it .

What little Joe may have accomplished in 2 years ... don't take this away from him .

I might also mention both he and Obama had the nuts to give the FU to China . Like most Americans wanted America to do

I don't recall any Al Quaeda terrorist happenings recently so maybe
he should have been left alone.
You have to figure the new guy could be far worse.\
Kinda like, Better the devil you know ...

I absolutely give the Biden bunch credit for doing something nobody else had done in over 20 years of trying. It's good news.

What is not good news.....this means Al Qaeda is active in Afghanistan with at least a wink and a not from the Taliban.

As long as there is Islamic Fundamentalism this will never end. Like Vern said, now its time to start working on the new boss.

Given that he was probably unknown outside the intel community, I'd say this was done to counter Biden's miserable poll numbers.

All in fun of course.
