Why should Bush invade Iraq is Osama was in Afghanistan or Pakistan? Al Queida is all over the place...why not focus on the PRIMARY centers of activity.....instead of the teeny, weeny little area in Northeast Iraq that might have had a cell of Kurdish zealots fulminating around?

Osama, dead or alive? Not on Mr. Bush's watch. Too many other things to do.

Interesting that you brought up the name of the wannabe, 'Zarqawi'... When your own post said this:

"...Zarqawi's organization was independent of al Qaeda and, some argue, actually at odds with bin Laden. Though Zarqawi made his foothold in northern Iraq prior to the U.S. led occupation, the group "al Qaeda in Iraq" did not exist prior to the invasion. In fact, he only swore fealty to bin Laden in 2004, using the al Qaeda moniker to gain recruits and finances."

But how about one of Khalid Sheik Mohammed's groups?

... Six years on, evidence has begun to emerge that President Bush's administration may be funding one of the terrorist groups it promised to defeat — a group, moreover, reported to have been once commanded by Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, the architect of the September 11, 2001, bombings that sparked off the global war on terror.

Early this month, ABC News journalists Brian Ross and Christopher Isham broke the news that the U.S. was funding Islamist terror group Jundullah — or Allah's Brigade — to carry out strikes against Iran.
