VIDEO: Al-Qaeda Leader Calls For American Muslims To Assassinate President Trump


In recent years, Al-Qaeda has faded into irrelevance.

Until now.

The leader of Al-Qaeda has called for American Muslims to assassinate President Trump.

The New York Post shared these key details:

The leader of a heinous Islamist terror group has called for President Trump and scores of his top advisers to be assassinated as revenge for their pro-Israel stances, The Post has learned.

Sa’ad bin Atef al-Awlaki, the newest leader of the group al-Qa’ida in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), issued the disturbing call in a propaganda video released on Sunday — as he encouraged Muslims in the US to “take revenge,” sources confirmed.

“Go after the scum of the earth and its greatest criminals. These are Trump and his vice president [JD Vance], his advisor and his supporters in terms of finance, administration, and technology.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and even Elon Musk were among the advisers named, sources said.

“Go after them and their families and all those who have any ties or are close to the politicians of the White House. There are no red lines after all that has been happening to our people in Gaza.”

Elsewhere, al-Awlaki — for whom the US State Department has issued a $6 million bounty — praised suspects who have carried out a spate of recent antisemitic terror attacks, as well as those behind the prior assassination attempts on Trump.

Watch here:

The Times of Israel gave a current status of the Al-Qaeda terror group:

Though believed to have been weakened in recent years due to infighting and suspected US drone strikes killing its leaders, the group known by the acronym AQAP had been considered the most dangerous branch of al-Qaeda still operating after the 2011 killing by US Navy SEALs of founder Osama bin Laden, who masterminded the September 11, 2001, attacks.

In 2022, a US drone strike in Afghanistan killed bin Laden’s successor, Ayman al-Zawahiri, who also helped plot 9/11. The September 11 attacks began decades of war by the US in Afghanistan and Iraq, and fomented the rise of the Islamic State group.

Al-Awlaki already has a $6 million US bounty on his head, as Washington says he “has publicly called for attacks against the United States and its allies.” He replaced AQAP leader Khalid al-Batarfi, whose death was announced by the group in 2024.

AQAP seizing onto the Israel-Hamas war follows the efforts of Yemen’s Houthi rebels to do the same. The Iranian-backed group has launched missile attacks on Israel and targeted commercial vessels moving through the Red Sea corridor, as well as American warships.

The Trump administration launched an intense campaign of strikes on the Houthis, which only ended before the president’s recent trip to the Middle East.

The Houthis’ international profile rose as the group remains mired in Yemen’s long-stalemated war. Al-Awlaki may be betting on the same for his group, which UN experts have estimated has between 3,000 and 4,000 active fighters and passive members. The group raises money by robbing banks and money exchange shops, as well as smuggling weapons, counterfeiting currencies, and ransom operations, according to the UN.

The Shiite Zaydi Houthis have previously denied working with AQAP, a Sunni extremist group. However, AQAP targeting of the Houthis has dropped in recent years, while the militants keep attacking Saudi-led coalition forces, who have battled the Houthis.

“As the Houthis gain popularity as leaders of the ‘Arab and Muslim world’s resistance’ against Israel, al-Awlaki seeks to challenge their dominance by presenting himself as equally concerned about the situation in Gaza,” said Mohammed al-Basha, a Yemeni expert at the Basha Report risk advisory firm.

Iran has also called for the assassination of President Trump in recent years:

Iran even went so far as to create an animated video of an attack on Trump while on his golf course.
