          Add "war hero" to Biden's list of accomplishments.

          Education is extremely important.

                      I have not heard anything of DNA confirmation yet. That would indicate we still have lots of resources in Afghanistan.

                        To be fair, Biden was in his bed fighting COVID and he thought his advisor asked him, "Do you want me to get Advil?" to which Biden said, "Yes, fire away."

                          More info. Doesn't look like we have any real confirmation.

                            After the blades slice off the target's head, they should have DNA analysis built into the weapon.

                                  So, there's that.

                                  But, in fairness, he probably didn't recognize that name either.

                                      Blowback?

                                      The Department of State remains concerned about the continued threat of terrorist attacks, demonstrations, and other violent actions against U.S. citizens and interests overseas. The Department of State believes there is a higher potential for anti-American violence given the death of Ayman al-Zawahiri on July 31, 2022. Current information suggests that terrorist organizations continue to plan terrorist attacks against U.S. interests in multiple regions across the globe. These attacks may employ a wide variety of tactics including suicide operations, assassinations, kidnappings, hijackings, and bombings.

                                      As terrorist attacks, political violence (including demonstrations), criminal activities, and other security incidents often take place without any warning, U.S. citizens are strongly encouraged to maintain a high level of vigilance and practice good situational awareness when traveling abroad. U.S. government facilities worldwide actively monitor potential security threats and may temporarily close or periodically suspend public services to assess their security posture. In those instances, U.S. embassies and consulates will make every effort to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens. U.S. citizens abroad are urged to monitor the local news and maintain contact with the nearest U.S. Embassy or Consulate.

                                      When planning a trip and prior to departing the United States, U.S. citizens should consult country specific Travel Advisories and information pages on travel.state.gov. Travelers are also urged to enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive security messages and to make it easier to locate them in an emergency. The Department uses these security messages to convey information about terrorist threats, security incidents, planned demonstrations, natural disasters, etc. In an emergency, please contact the nearest U.S. Embassy or consulate or call the following numbers: 1 (888) 407-4747 (toll-free in the United States and Canada) or 1 (202) 501-4444 from other countries.

                                      Private U.S. citizens should not travel to any country to participate in armed conflict. U.S. citizens are reminded that fighting on behalf of, or providing other forms of support to, designated terrorist organizations can constitute the provision of material support for terrorism, which is a serious c

                                        I was wondering about that as well. Was it really worth it for a stunt to rise his popularity? As far as I know, Zawahiri hasn't coordinated much of anything the last 20 years.

                                        Not that I'm sad he is gone, mind you.
