Anyway the leader of al Qaeda, Doc al-Zawahiri, declared war on the Islamic Caliphate, otherwise known as ISIS\/ISIL\/Islamic State, back in the Spring, but the audio of the announcement was released this morning, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/al-qaeda-leader-al-zawahiri-declares-war-isis-151231254--abc-news-topstories.html\">ABC News<\/a>;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIt\u2019s pretty interesting,\u201d said former National Counterterrorism Center Director Matthew Olsen. \u201cZawahiri until now has not been willing to openly condemn Baghdadi and ISIS.
