For at least the third time in the past several years, US officials have “confirmed” the death of Abu Yahya al-Libi, who they are now calling “al-Qaeda’s number two” leader. Libi was reportedly killed in one of the recent drone strikes.
Libi is one of several people who officials were referring two as “al-Qaeda’s number three” before the assassination of Osama bin Laden, and his past reported deaths, which were eventually disproven, were always presented as “devastating” blows to al-Qaeda. This time was no different, except for his promotion to number two.
Libi has often been described as one of the top propagandists in al-Qaeda, a militant religious scholar whose enthusiasm earned him considerable support. Before Western officials started posthumously promoting him he was described as rarely participating in terror activities.
A militant commander within North Waziristan denied Libi’s latest death, saying that he was not present at the time of the attack. Given the long history of “confirmed kills” reemerging in Pakistan, whether he was actually slain this time remains to be seen.
The heat is on, finally, for the Obama Pakistan drone strikes. As usual, scores of innocent people have died . What better propaganda cover up of massive civilian casualties than to claim you have killed #2 for the 3rd time. There is no real reporting of the war in Afghanistan or Pakistan. Only military propaganda releases by the pentagon and the CIA fed to the public by a compliant corporate press.
What has Al-Qaeda become? It looks like anybody who is not with us is referred to as Al-Qaeda. If one is against the foreign policies of the US and talks about it or writes about it or is a foreigner fighting against the US invasion of his country is called an Al-Qaeda.
If we are fighting Al-Qaeda in Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen, Africa, etc, etc, then perhaps Al-Qaeda’s causes and values are more attractive than ours when so many freely join them.
I’m still confused about Al-Qaeda though. I know there was one type of Al-Qaeda lead by Osama that helped us kick the USSR out of Afghanistan, and the same Al-Qaeda is following our orders blowing things up in Syria. So, do tell me how many Al-Qaeda’s are there, and how does the drone Godfather can tell the good ones from the bad when looking at his Kill List?

Al Qaeda must be organized like a commercial bank – everyone in the place except the office boy, is a "vice-president" (or a Number 2 guy). The official organizational chart is not very deep but it is wide as hell.
anyone even know who #1 is? #4? rofl
#1 is of course the guy in the corner cave, with a view.
Probably a psyop aimed to put pressure on Pakistan to comply with US/NATO. It serves to portray Pakistan as incompetent, at worst complicit (Osama Raid) and as a terrorist hub threatening the United States. It's PR that can justify continued drone strikes as needed and successful.
In Yemen the underwear bomber in Dec 2009 was used to bring naked-body scanners plus it was used to portray Yemen as a terrorist hub threatening the United States. In Dec 2009 the US fired a cruise missile containing cluster bombs that killed civilians.
Both Yemen and Pakistan are in the cross hair of the US. Expect more Al-Qaeda #2s to be killed there. Expect more false flags (e.g. underwear bomber, cargo cartridges, time square bomber) originating from there. Expect a new bogeyman to show up there. Expect this and more all for justifying military action. Al-Qaeda in Yemen/Pakistan is the same to nuclear bombs in Iran, both are pretexts to justify the military agenda for those regions.
Leon Panetta keeps a jar of #2 Al Qaeda leaders in his desk for when he feels lousy and needs a boost. Try some weed, Leon, no innocents die when you use it.
But what are you all going to do about this nonsense? You have an election coming up and no one to vote for. I don't understand how americans continue voting for people who do not have your interests and life at heart. Pls. explain.
