Tucker Blasts Biden For Boasting About Killing al-Zawahiri After Botched Afghanistan Withdrawal [VIDEO]

The Post Millennial

On Monday, President Biden announced that Osama Bin Laden’s successor, Ayman al-Zawahiri, was killed via a drone strike in Afghanistan.

FOX News’ Tucker Carlson criticized Biden for boasting about the Al Qaeda leader’s death after botching the withdrawal from Afghanistan last year.

“It takes a lot of brass to brag about Afghanistan, or even mention the word,” Carlson began, arguing it is to Biden what the Monica Lewinsky scandal was to Bill Clinton.

“His withdrawal from that country almost a year ago was the single most humiliating moment in American foreign policy since the fall of Saigon in April 1975,” Carlson continued, pointing out that Biden’s strategy “seemed designed to inflict maximum damage to the interests of the United States.”

He went on to reference the speech Biden delivered on Monday night wherein he boasted about the death of Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri in Afghanistan.

“Great!” Carlson said. “Feel safer? Of course, you don’t. Nobody does.”

“The reason nobody feels safer,” Carlson explained, “is Biden’s response to the disaster in Afghanistan.”

Carlson concluded by slamming Biden for not taking time to learn from his mistakes, and instead jumping right into another conflict.

In his speech, Biden noted that the terrorist leader was killed over the weekend after being located by the counterterrorism community earlier this year.

“We’ll make it clear again tonight,” he stated, “no matter how long it takes, no matter where you hide if you are a threat to our people, the United States will find you and take you out.”
