The killing of al Qaeda leader al-Zawahri marks, what the White House hopes will be, a turning of the page on the presidency’s darkest day — one that could aid a potential Biden revival.
In the last week, Biden’s White House has watched key Democrats agree to a surprise, stunning reconciliation package that could jumpstart the party’s chances this fall. Additionally, a bipartisan deal was reached to pass a massive economic program to bolster the nation’s ability to manufacture computer chips in order to compete with China. And the president may soon be able to sign a bill granting additional benefits to veterans exposed to toxic burn pits.
“It disrupts one of the most important terror networks in the world,” said Haass. “It sends an important message that the United States has enormous reach, that we don’t need to have an on-the-ground presence.” “What unnerves me is that Al-Zawahri felt comfortable enough being out in the open in the Kabul area after the Taliban takeover,” said Sen. Lindsey Graham , a fierce critic of Biden’s decision to withdraw. “So much for the Taliban rejecting al-Qaida. This is proof positive that Afghanistan has once again become a safe haven for international terrorists.”
The suicide bomb detonated Aug. 26. Biden addressed the calamity in a national address but he did not waver in his commitment to the evacuation. Over the next several weeks, the U.S. safely evacuated thousands but scores of Afghans who worked as interpreters or helped the Americans in other ways were left to fend for themselves against the Taliban.
