His only real option is to go offshore, and get foreign allies -- Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, other terror cells -- to try something elsewhere, where no one is expecting it. The strikes, if they come, will be at a great distance -- in the U.S. or Europe or India or South-east Asia or elsewhere in the Middle East; desperate and essentially hopeless attempts to distract from the main show; to get the world to say, "You see, Mr. Bush, Iraq is not the problem!"


Eh, voila - OBL shows back up on the scene. Mr. Warren looks prescient on this call.


To put this more plainly: from Baghdad, it could easily be, onward to Riyadh.


Great Canadian minds think alike. ;-)

Wonder if this was written before the latest bin Laden tape surfaced. If so, very prescient.

Edit: I see I was not the only one to come to this conclusion.;^)
