I don't think it is immaterial that Osama is at large while we are tied up in Iraq.

But 7 of his 8 top operations leaders are either dead, or in US custody. Muhammed Atef, of the the three primary leaders of Al-Qaida is dead, while Al-Zawahiri was wounded at Tora Bora and his wife and kids killed.. Bin Laden has bad kidneys which means he needs dialysis on a regular basis..

We continue to role up Al-Qaida and those who support it.. But it's going to be a long battle because the heart of it all lies in Saudi Arabia, fueled by Saudi oil money paid to the Clerics to keep them loyal..

And I hardly agree about Bush limited personal liberties... If you don't like the idea of Homeland Security, then why not tell the rest of the people out there to "suck it up... we're in a way here!" and quit balling everytime theirs a terrorist threat against this country..

There are going to be plenty more, and some are going to be successful.. The ones that aren't, you'll likely never hear about (sources and methods, y'know.. :0)
