How President Biden and his team decided to kill the world's most wanted terrorist, one of the masterminds of the 9/11 attacks.
The US drone strike that killed Zawahiri on his balcony in downtown Kabul was the product of months of highly secret planning by Biden and a tight circle of his senior advisers. Among the preparations was a small-scale model of Zawahiri's safe house, constructed by intelligence officials and placed inside the White House Situation Room for Biden to examine as he debated his options.
And they were highly wary of leaks -- only a"very small and select group" at a scattering of key agencies were informed of the plans being laid.Biden was also concerned about how it might affect US efforts to secure the return of Mark Frerichs, an American citizen taken hostage in Afghanistan more than two years ago.
