While the Taliban and ISIS-K are battling for power, the story was suspect and it turns out that the whole thing is one big question mark.

The story originated with the Biden administration. That makes it doubly suspect. And it gets worse from there.

While the U.S. also sought to target the ISIS-K terrorist, the Taliban killed him on its own, according to the official.

Another curious aspect of the story is that the Taliban has so far not taken credit for the apparent high-level blow against its ISIS-K nemesis.

The U.S. assesses the reason is that the Taliban did not know it had killed this particular terrorist, according to the official.

A senior Biden administration official on Tuesday said the U.S. did not learn of the death from the Taliban, but would not elaborate.

The U.S. official on Wednesday went slightly further, saying the U.S. learned of the death through its own intelligence capabilities, according to the official.

So far, administration officials have refused to give the name of the planner, with Kirby telling reporters on Wednesday, “I’m just not at liberty to reveal that.”

The U.S. official told ABC News the reluctance to give the name is due to concerns doing so would reveal intelligence sourcing, according to the official.

According to the Biden regime, the Taliban killed the mastermind, but don’t know it, and they can’t reveal who it is because then the Taliban might know whom they killed.

Am I getting this right?
