Al Qaeda Leader Proves Adept At Evading U.S. Tactics, Which Are Causing New Problems

Actually if Bush had concentrated the troops in Afghanistan in the first place instead of a diversion into Iraq, we would have Bin Laden by now and we would not be facing these problems now.

Clinton blew it when he wouldn't kill Bin Laden but the mistake Bush made (if he made it at all), was the foolish decision to turned over the bulk of the raid on Tora Bora to the Afghanis. We shouldn't have been playing PR if we suspected OBL was in the neighborhood.
