Let’s be clear: Al-Qaeda wouldn’t have become a global terrorist network with astonishingly horrific attacks, from embassies to 9/11, had he not been involved. He worked hard on globalizing AND expanding AQ’s footprint. Will AQ today change as a result of his death, probably not. — PolitiTweet.org

A lot analysts have judged Zawahiri as lacking charisma & a weak leader who bored everyone to death, fine. But al-Qaeda is not a corporation to judge by quarterly earnings. He had insanely successful days & pretty bad ones. He eluded capture & advanced AQ’s agenda for decades. — PolitiTweet.org

@NihadJariri I understand your point, but I beg to differ that he was behind the rift. He indeed mismanaged the dynamics of the division, no questions about that. I just don’t think we should merely focus on this particular failure as the collective résumé of his work. — PolitiTweet.org
