Embarrassingly for US President George Bush, neither Osama Bin Laden nor almost any other senior al-Qaeda leaders have been caught. To date, the biggest catch for the US has been Abu Zubaydah, al-Qaeda's suspected operations chief, who was captured in a shootout in the Pakistani city of Faisalabad in March.

None at the very top have been caputred but some are confirmed dead.

Important people who have been captured include

•Al Qaeda's operations chief in the Persian
Gulf, who helped plan the 1998 bombings in
Africa and the attack on the USS Cole in 2000.
•A key al Qaeda planner who was a
conspirator in the September 11 attacks.
•Numerous operations officers and
facilitators.

And of course a whole bunch of the rank and file.
