[Townhall] President Trump confirmed Sunday that the terrorist leader behind the 2000 attack on the USS Cole was killed in an airstrike in Yemen last week."Our great military has delivered justice for the heroes lost and wounded in the cowardly attack on the USS Cole," Trump tweeted.
Jamel Ahmed Mohammed Ali Al-Badawi was the al Qaeda operative who the US believes was responsible for the October 2000 attack on the U.S. missile destroyer, which resulted in the deaths of 17 American sailors and left at least 40 injured.
