Al Qaeda Picks Old Schlub as New Leader
An announcement on jihadi message board Ansar al-Mujahideen today states that Osama bin Laden’s right hand man, Egyptian surgeon Ayman al-Zawahiri is now in charge of Al Qaeda. As the old man celebrates his promotion, here a few facts about “The Doctor”:

- He has a thing for English proverbs and thinks global warming is destroying our planet.
