This is weird. Ayman al-Zawahiri, who was always hiding in the same Afghanistan-Pakistan area where Osama Bin Laden was hiding out, was very old ten years ago in 2012 when he established the Libyan branch of al-Qaeda. [SEE CTH Archives] This guy is ancient by now.
Ayman al-Zawahiri was #2 to Bin Laden and elevated to #1 after his death. Ayman has a younger brother named Mohammed al-Zawahiri who was the Muslim Brotherhood organizer of the uprising in Egypt, and very likely the person who helped coordinate the 9/11/2012 protest on the U.S. Embassy in Cairo that happened on the same day as the attack in Benghazi.
According to media reporting, the CIA is claiming to have killed Ayman al-Zawahiri last weekend and Joe Biden is going to give a congratulatory speech about it tonight at 7:30pm ET. Something about this is odd, he was killed in Kabul, Afghanistan? Ayman al-Zawahiri was seriously old if he was still actually alive.
WASHINGTON DC – The United States killed Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahri in a drone strike over the weekend, two people briefed on the operation told POLITICO.
In a statement to reporters, a senior administration official said “over the weekend, the United States conducted a counterterrorism operation against a significant Al Qaeda target in Afghanistan. The operation was successful and there were no civilian casualties.”
One of the people briefed on the operation said the strike in Kabul was led by the CIA. President Joe Biden plans to give a speech about “on a successful counterterrorism mission” at 7:30 p.m. (read more)
If, and that’s a big stretch for me at this point, if the story is correct…. then the Taliban wanted to get rid of Zawahiri due to some kind of power conflict. No way Zawahiri travels to Kabul (if he was really alive) and then gets picked-off by the CIA. Was he going there for medical treatment or was in an old folk’s home for retired terrorists?
The Wiki age on this guy is nonsense. He was way older than 71.
Here is a picture of Ayman (with Bin Laden) long before 9/11/01.
Here is the most recent picture of Ayman, attributed to 2021.
Something is fishy about this.
On the left is Ayman and Osama in Afghanistan (late ’90’s?), on the right is Ayman’s brother in Egypt (2012).
Next they’ll arrest a shoplifter to prove they are tough on crime and never were for defunding the police. Pelosi takes on the CCP, O’biden drones Al Qaeda. Lame PR for the midterms, we’re tough on China, crime and Al Qaeda. You had us all wrong.
Hey maybe we’ll get lucky and a CIA drone will pop Piglosis while she’s in Taiwan. That way they don’t have to rely on China to do it but can start another war anyway.
This is an interesting read:
https://thediplomat.com/2022/08/pakistans-peace-gamble-with-the-tehreek-e-taliban-pakistan/
Paraphrasing:
“Pakistan has political uncertainty and a failing economy. Pakistan cannot afford a war right now.
Yet, the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), who had been outlawed to Afghanistan, are now trying to make inroads back into Pakistan.
Because the US ended its war on terror in Afghanistan, it is unlikely that Pakistan can get aid to fight the TTP from the US.”
My thoughts:
In addition, the US left $85 Billion dollars worth of equipment for the Taliban when it abruptly pulled out of Afghanistan.
So, Pakistan would be fighting a heavily armed TTP.
Of note, Pakistan is a nuclear power.
Where is that image of the guy walking with the girl looking at the other girl?
Recession in arm, looking at Terrorist Kill.
He was probably driving around in one of those U.S. humvees Biden left behind
Anything the CIA is involved with should always be considered—at best—highly suspect.
Otherwise, it should be dismissed as BS propaganda.
Jibberin’ Joe needed something, ANYTHING, to distract from his crime-infested failure of a life.
Yep I wouldn’t be surprised if this is complete BS.
FJB victory lap, with badass aviator shades in place, in 3… 2… 1.
recession
Did they get a family with 37 kids this time too?
dude has the nerve to speak to nation? ug
It is “wag the dog” .. his polls are so low and he needs a distraction!
Biden is such a huge hypocritical loser!
Soleimani was still operational and a threat.
Divot-Head has been retired and out of the game for years.
It was either Zawahiri or Bin Laden’s cook.
Did POTATUS go on the air yet?
Score one for old Corn-pop! Why bother with chains when drones will do… 🥴 🚀 💥
The one year anniversary of the U. S. Leaving Afghanistan is coming up. Biden needed to show the U.S. is still able to kill terrorists.
Can’t wait for the situation room photo for this Op to come out.

Do they even let Joe in the situation room?
Bring him in for a photo op and ice cream and send him off to not interfere during the real op?
Other recent news includes rounding up the Hamburglar and drone striking The Noid.
Central Intelligence is supposed to be about gathering intelligence.
Since when did the Clowns In Action become a military force ?
That old dude has probably been on ice for a long time and is now being used.
Let the global public see proof and an autopsy
they have to bury him in the ocean per Muslim culture.
epstein style. dead for the newspapers, on their own way for the life.
Oh boy but this so-called “story” smells to high heavens–smells like Democrat propaganda!
…that is, it smells like Schiff–Adam Schiff (D-CA)!
He was living in a basement with his favorite goat named Achmed the Dead Terrorist.
At this point, who is still dumb enough to trusts our rogue three-letter agencies?
Now watch the left forcing CCP’s hand on Taiwan through unnecessary provocation because Joe’s crack and booze-addled degenerate son Hunter got caught laundering money for China.
Biden has Covid yet he exposed many people to this virus tonight. Apparently, he doesn’t care about the cameraman, lighting technician, or jumbo-tron operator getting covid. Yep, that’s a “Biden Moment”, alright.
are they really hoping people will think how great Joe and his team is now that he claims he killed an old Islamist..yea folks forget about your high gas prices, food prices ,energy prices…
Another faux prop up story
This guy has been dead a long time
Simply a pathetic attempt to make The Manchurian Marionette look “presidential” by executing a terrorist, be he ever so old and (probably) irrelevant, and thereby hoping to raise the poll numbers out of “25% Satisfied” with The Manchurian Marionette’s War on America.
Wouldn’t the muslims in the Middle East be showing some grief and loss if this were true?
Wouldn’t the squad be outraged and strapping on homicide vests?
Waiting for C.A.I.R. to issue a statement……you know – Muslim Brotherhood style.
Pathetic flex before Pelosi hits Taiwan?
How long before they admit that the strike which in reality killed seven childre was a mistake and offer an apology?
Unless they have verifiable DNA proof, it didn’t happen.
CIA; Fine, Great, Thanks, Bulls-Eye, Target practizing 100%, One Islamic terrorist less, He´s in hell, He´s vaporized, Fish meat, Shark meat, Pig meat, Dog meat, Islamic trash to hell, Gone, Gone fishing, Tastes like chicken, HE IS NO MORE, KABOOM!!!, HE IS DEAD!!!
Inflation Stay The Same Though!!!
FJB/LGB
Joe Biden is the greatest military leader since Stonewall Jackson.
We are so fortunate to be alive at this time.
Didn’t move any polls, just another fundraiser for neocon, boom a dead man we feel much safer, 300 murders in the city I live in, talking about terror attacks ride a subway. FJB political tool fool.
is there anything at all connected to pedo pete that is real ??
asking for a friend…
After murdering elderly in nursing homes, ad another to the pile.
what terrorist was responsible for the recent Afghanistan bombing, as the embassy was closing?
This guy? Ask Biden that in your question reporters
Maybe they bombed his grave???
So, Obama got Osama before the 2012 election and now Joe ‘supposedly’ got his successor RIGHT BEFORE THE MIDTERMS. Obama and Jarrett have zero creativity.
His birth year (whatever s available online) is 1951 which makes him 75 years old.
Math major ?
Laplace transforms are his specialty… 😎
You’re so sweetly right .. no claim to math major Captain
Geez. The Dems really think we are all a bunch of uneducated, less than sharp minded rubes, who don’t pay attention to anything they do. They call this important news to show they are tough guys or something. Same with Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan. It’s all for show and brownie points from the voters who absolutely know the game they’re playing and won’t go along with the Biden dupes.
This a big bunch of nothingness wrapped up in the ‘fawning for democrats’ media reporting. You know, that media who are complicit in every dumb thing the Dems do.
Biden needs a win so trot out this “killing.”
They gave him a covid booster.
Maybe it’s a setup to have them push back with some type of attack on the US (or Biden himself or maybe a false flag operation) of such magnitude shortly before the mid-terms. Another emergency to allow for mandatory shutdowns and promote mail-in ballots…. if an election is even allowed.
He probably died of natural causes and Biden wants to claim responsibility for getting rid of a terrorist.
Biden’s REAL approval ratings are below the septic tank…..they are desperate for ANYTHING….and after all Trump got good mileage out of Al-Baghdadi and Soleimani so of course FJB gotta try that on and see…..
Never let a good crisis go to waste….
I was beginning to think the CIA hit CRT with a drown.
It’s just as likely they actually offed Hayman Al-Hawaziri the goat herder.
Topic warranted a ddos attack eh. What a joke these clowns are
Sometimes I think we may be giving this Fourth Branch of government too much credit. This story might be an instance of that. Is it possible that instead of coordinated planning, we are observing Fourth Branch players and their organizations simply free-lancing, acting independently from the other Fourth Branch members, regardless of mutual interests?
Lol, the Permanent War Party blew whatever capital they had in Afghanistan 10 years ago. America will yawn.
Could be this?
The Wisconsin Supreme Court decided that all the ballots dropped in ballot boxes weren’t legal because the legislature didn’t vote to allow mail in ballots for voters who weren’t medically confined:

Is this Al-Qaeda’s next terror chief? Secretive heir apparent who ‘oversaw Black Hawk Down operation’ and helped carry out 9/11 attacks is poised to take over after Ayman al-Zawahri was killed in Afghanistan

Seif al=Adl has been a known AQ leader for many years. AQ Bigwigs:
Name Alias Ikhwan Chapter
Osama bin Laden Abu Abdallah Saudi Arabia
Shaykh Abdullah Azzam Palestine
Shaykh Omar Abdel Rahman Egypt
Ayman al-Zawahiri Abu Muiz, etc. Egypt
Hasan al-Turabi Sudan
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed Abu Bin Khalid Kuwait
Mustafa Setmariam Nasar Abu Musab al-Suri Syria
Mamoun Darkazanli Abu Ilyas Syria
Gulbuddin Hekmatyar Afghanistan
Ahmed Fathi Hussein Eliwah Abu Umar Egypt?
MOHAMMED KAKKAWI SEIF AL ADEL Egypt
Mustafa Ahmed Hassan Hamza Abu Hazem Egypt?
Fazul Abdullah Mohammed Abu Aisha, etc. Comoro I. (Sudan)
Bilal Bin Marwan Mullah Bilal Saudi Arabia
Ahmed Mo. Ali al-Hada n/a Yemen
So should expect- in exchange- a suicide bomber -that is known and allowed- to attack one of our military airport, base, or target …like during Biden’s Afghanistan pullout?
OBiden Regime is a real different bird -to say the least. Brutal.
What did he do, refuse to get vaccinated?
Honor Killing after testing positive for the Monkey Pox.
Or….he decided against an Electric Vehicle made by Toyota.
So 50 CIA/FBI and “intelligence” people say that Hunters laptop was Russia dis-information, and we know that was not true. For years the CIA, FBI, and DOJ claimed that Trump colluded with Russia, and that was total nonsense. And we know the media is totally dishonest. So…..we are to believe that this is true? Really?
So we can TOTALLY trust them on this. 😉
This from a couple of years ago.
Old dude reportedly died of natural causes back in 2020.
Note that brother Mohamed al-Zawahiri ran a AQ operation in Albania, was captured by CIA and sent to Egypt where he was jailed. He was released and appeared in Syria where he was reportedly placed under arrest. Can anyone provide his present whereabouts?
