Bin Laden Dead

A U.S. Air Force RQ-1 Predator unmanned aerial vehicle from the 432nd Wing out of Creech Air Force Base, Nev., takes off from the Rafael Hernandez Airport outside Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, Jan. 28, 2010, for a mission in support of Operation Unified Response. Airmen from Creech Air Force Base are providing 24/7 full-motion video in real time to international relief workers on the ground in Haiti in order to speed up humanitarian aid in remote areas of the country. The Department of Defense and the U.S. Agency for International Development are providing aid and relief to Haitian citizens affected by the 7.0-magnitude earthquake that struck the region Jan. 12, 2010.

Osama Bin Laden’s son and heir, Hamza bin Laden, has been found dead, dealing a critical blow to al Qaeda. It is not known yet whether U.S. forces were involved in his death. NBC News reports:

The United States has obtained intelligence that the son and potential successor of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, Hamza bin Laden, is dead, according to three U.S. officials.

The officials would not provide details of where or when Hamza bin Laden died or if the U.S. played a role in his death. It is unclear if the U.S. has confirmed his death.

Asked by reporters on Wednesday whether the U.S. had intelligence that Hamza is dead, President Donald Trump said, “I don’t want to comment on that.”

Hamza bin Laden’s last known public statement was released by al Qaeda’s media arm in 2018. In that message, he threatened Saudi Arabia and called on the people of the Arabian peninsula to revolt.

Al Qaida continues a heightened struggle against other terrorist groups fighting for control in the Middle East, such as Hezbollah and ISIS. With Bin Laden’s son killed, the organization will lose even more support among Islamic radicals and will hopefully not be able to mount another attack on America.

Dear 1600 daily: What happened to my 1600 daily newsletter? I have been bounced out of the newsfeed. I notice that most of my conservative sites I subscribe to have disappeared from my e-mails. Is this another censorship hack by the leftists? Has anyone else experienced this? Talk about censoring the news! Now I cannot even get the subscriptions to appear in my e-mail account, all of a sudden. Interesting this should occur ast he 2020 campaign trail begins. Hope President Trump will look into this. Hope 1600 restores my account. Same thing happened with WND and other sites.
