WOLFOWITZ--STRIKE BIN LADEN HARD
Richard Clarke has gone after Paul Wolfowitz very aggressively as Mr. Iraq who had no interest in bin Laden. But check out page 214, describing a pre-9/11 debate over the Predator. Wolfowitz wanted a robust military option:

"The Defense Department favored strong action. Deputy Secretary Wolfowitz questioned the United States’ ability to deliver Bin Ladin and bring him to justice. He favored going after Bin Ladin as part of a larger air strike, similar to what had been done in the 1986 U.S. strike against Libya. General Myers emphasized the Predator’s value for surveillance, perhaps enabling broader air strikes that would go beyond Bin Ladin to attack al Qaeda’s training infrastructure."

Al Queda determined to outdo 9/11 with WMD:


Security experts all believe al Qaeda is determined to launch an attack on the United States and if it can will try to use nuclear, chemical or biological weapons, the chairman of the Sept. 11 commission said on Friday.

Do you find this shocking?? I don't. This is not news it is expected, and unfortunately it will happen. As with one of the reports you posted, even the death of Osama will not stop it. As long as their are al-quaida and people hating the U.S. there will always be attacks.
