Al-Qaeda Plays Basketball with Trump’s Top US Military Officials

Guest Post by Timothy Alexander Guzman at Global Research. Reposted with Permission.

November 10th, 2025, will be remembered as the day when a former leader of al-Qaeda who was once known as Abu Mohammad al-Jolani and now is the current President of Syria, visited the Trump White House.

Trump previously met him and said that he had a “strong past, very strong past — fighter. He’s got a real shot at holding it together.”

It’s a clown show, just imagine a well-known terrorist who once had a bounty on his head for $10 million is going to the White House to meet Trump and his regime once again to form a “peaceful and united Syria.” Abu Mohammad al-Jolani now calls himself Ahmed al-Sharaa is the one of the founders of ‘al Qaeda’ in Syria known as the al-Nusra Front which has committed numerous atrocities against people from all walks of life in Syria is a classic example of a US puppet who was and apparently, still is supported by the US establishment and Israel.  Fox news sugar-coated the terrorist leader and labeled him as a former “rebel” who helped topple Syria’s former president, Bashar al-Assad:

Al-Sharaa, formerly known by the nom de guerre Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, led the rebel offensive in December that toppled former Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad’s regime.

His group, Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, was designated by the U.S. State Department as a Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO). Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced in June that the Trump administration would remove the label amid the president’s efforts to reset U.S.-Syria ties

According to Marco Rubio,

“This FTO revocation is an important step in fulfilling President Trump’s vision of a stable, unified, and peaceful Syria.”

Trump supports repealing the Caesar Act which allowed Washington to sanction specific individuals, companies and institutions that had links to Assad.   

Fox news then concluded their story by reminding its readers that

“The bill, which was named after a Syrian army defector who smuggled thousands of images documenting torture and executions in Bashar al-Assad’s prisons.” 

This was during the Obama regime, a person they called “Caesar’ to hide his identity, was a Syrian defector that testified in US congress in 2014 and then before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 2020 who supposedly had thousands of photos in a ‘thumb drive’ of Syrian citizens being tortured and murdered in prisons during Assad’s time in office.  Ceasar then gave the photos to the Syrian National Movement and then Human Rights Watch got a hold of them and managed to examine thousands of photos of people who were allegedlly being tortured and murdered, but they only chose 27 prisoners and claimed that the Assad government had committed atrocities against his own people (read Rick Sterling’s paper ‘The Caesar Photo Fraud that Undermined Syrian Negotiations’ from the Syria Solidarity Movement, 2016). 

However, it was just propaganda to oust Assad and bring in Western-backed terrorists to fight their enemies in the Middle East including Assad’s government forces, Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Iraqi resistance, the Palestinians, Iran and so on.  

Now in 2025, the former leader of al-Qaeda was seen playing basketball with Trump’s CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper and Kevin Lambert who currently leads anti-IS operations in Iraq. This is quite ironic.

The Times of Israel reported that

“After his arrival in the United States, Sharaa shared a video on social media of him playing basketball with CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper and Kevin Lambert, the head of the international anti-IS operation in Iraq, alongside the caption “work hard, play harder” continued, “US envoy to Syria Tom Barrack said earlier this month that Sharaa would “hopefully” sign an agreement to join the international US-led alliance against the Islamic State (IS) group.

So, let’s get this straight, the US and Israel created al-Qaeda and the Islamic state (ISIS) to conquer and divide the Middle East and then they targeted members of al-Qaeda and ISIS when it was convenient to show the world that they are fighting terrorists. Then al-Qaeda and ISIS retaliated, and they also killed US soldiers and citizens alike and now they are playing basketball together in Washington D.C. Truth is surely stranger than fiction.
