Al Qaeda hails Taliban’s rise in Afghan

A few hours after the last US troop left Kabul, Al Qaeda’s senior leadership released a congratulatory statement on Tuesday on the occasion of the Taliban’s victory in the war-ravaged country. Al Qaeda’s leaders said it soothed their hearts to hear verses from the Quran recited in the Presidential Palace in Kabul, reported FDD’s Long War Journal, an American news website.

We praise the Almighty, the Ominpotent, who humiliated and defeated America, the head of disbelief, the statement reads. We praise Him for breaking America’s back, tarnishing its global reputation and expelling it, disgraced and humiliated, from the Islamic land of Afghanistan, the statement added. The Taliban on Tuesday declared victory over the US from the tarmac of Kabul airport after the last American troop left Afghanistan. Standing on the airport runway, Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid told a small crowd that This victory belongs to us all.
