Al-Libi is one of the last of the original jihadist bin Laden core.
Al-Libi was the key organizer in Pakistan, more so than bin Laden, and the most important front line commander.
Zawahiri is next.

Before he escaped from Bagram in 2005, we got his DNA so ID is not in doubt.

Hmmm, how extrajudicial of dear leader.
Talk about doing a 180.

Remember how being third in line in Al Qaeda was the most dangerous job. I think that is now second in line. Zawahiri leads a charmed life....

Good thing we have a democrat president, if he was a republican the loyal opposition would be threatening impeachment for war crimes.

I don’t think Zawahiri is lucky. He is being protected by the Pakis and probably hiding out in a city like osama was.
