why won't the president of the United States of America, continue to hunt down Osama bin Laden, who the 9-11 Commission, our Department of Justice and He, himself, George W. Bush, have deemed responsible for the attacks on U.S. soil on September 11Th., 2001?
who is responsible for the attacks of 9-11, if not Osama bin Laden,, Saddam did not attack the world trade center towers, or the pentagon, or crash another U.S. plane into the ground in Pennyslvania?
why do we not have all our military might on the hunt for the terrorists who attacked us?

As long as the "war on terror" persists, BushCo has a great marketing phrase they can claim to justify anything they do, no matter how illegal or unconstitutional.

Neddie, what don't you understand? Who said we're no longer seeking out OBL? No one, he's still there. The Unabomber started his crimes in 1978. He wasn't caught by the FBI until 1996. He was in our "own back yard" and it wasn't because they gave up on him. The advantage that OBL has, is he has friendly colaborators that want to keep him "safe".
You are very mistaken by your baseless conclusion that he created this war on terror. Apparently you didn't watch ABC's "Pathway to 9/11". One thing that they made clear is that the Islamic Fascists have been at war with us for quite a long time. There were several attacks during President Clintons term, not on our soil. One has to be asleep to have missed that this have been going on for some time now. The difference is the approach to it. President Bush is not approaching it as a criminal matter, but the war that they have already declared.

I do believe we are searching for Osama, just not with our soldiers. We destroyed the network in Afghanistan, where he was, but didn't find him. What do you expect the U.S. to do, invade every country he could be in? That would take forever and it wouldn't work. Instead, the U.S. is using diplomacy and its Allies and is working with countries to seek him out.
Saddam once gassed 3,000 Kurds in a prison for reasons only he can say. Sound familiar? I believe someone with similar thoughts did the same thing 60 years ago in Germany. Saddam failed to comply with UN weapons inspections and was guilty of all sorts of crimes. Why would he be on trial if he wasn't. Letting Saddam go would have been like letting Hitler go. Hitler just had better resources for his goals. I am glad such a human being is no longer in control of a country.

We dont have all our military in the middle east because we have many other obligations. We have military bases in many countrys. Think of the countrys as people. Many countries are picking on each other and we are trying to be the reffery and stop them from killing each other. Also if we halld all our military in the middle east what good would it realy do. Terriorsts use hit and run tactics to kill americans so more americans in the middle east just means more targets for terrorists. hope this helped.
Welcome

Win? Why win? Are you suggesting that every Republican president since WWII has had his satan to produce fear into the American public? That's just crazy...I mean sure Hoover HAD Hitler, Ike had Stalin, Nixion had Ho Chi Mihn, Ford had Brezhnev, Reagan had Momar Kadafi, Bush sr had Saddam and dubya has Osama...really what does THAT prove..The GOP uses fear to remain in power...oh wait,,,,LOL

Grow up and pay attention to what is going on in the world. The terror war was started at least 30 years ago by the terrorist. There are other terrorist than Usama Ben Ladin.. even if we did catch him the war will go on for a long time.

You have to understand, we have a lot of techonology and could defeat a major power in war.. but we don't have a large army so we now have problems hunting the terrorists that use suicide and hit and run tactics. Guerilla warfare is extremely hard to deal with, but I believe the president is doing his job.

The USA has NO business fighting this war! We have enough issues in our own country that need attention. Look at the wasted money!!! If it was kept at home, it could solve problems. Sorry, but Bush is and always has been just a poor little rich boy wanting to go down in the history books - one way or the other - and this is THE OTHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe he doesnt care about what happened 9/11, or he wouldnt want to hurt his old friend,
those who say iraq are terrorists, if you watch TV look at the people and how they are living, do you think these poor people can be terrorists, and if they are how come we have completely destroyed their country and they couldnt even defend theirselves
Who are we fooling, the world or ourselves ?

We are still in pursuit of UBL. Would you like the news to say everyday "we are still looking for UBL, but have not found him yet". Just because you do not hear about something does not mean it is not happening.
