According to a story that will be on the front page of Washington Post on Thursday...

The CIA came to Bush on Wed afternoon and told them they knew where Sadam was. Based on that intel, they moved up their time table and changed the targeting information on 40 cruise missiles and sent 20 each at two different targets in the hopes of taking out Sadam...

They missed... or so everybody thinks.

That's because terrorists don't have engravings on their foreheads announcing the fact. Unless they strike, you don't know where they are. al-Qaeda can be all over the place without you (or the CIA) knowing.

The entire resources of an angry USA are being thrown at tracking these fools down. If it takes 50 years USA will hunt them all down. Dead or alive.

I'm wondering why you spend so many billions warring against the probably most anti-Al Qaeda regime in the ME after Israel, then ?

True with the bunch we know about - but they've been pretty egotistical primadonnas, getting themselves on TV all the time, running their mouths, having slack communications and infosec procedures.

If there ever is a bunch of real professionals, we'd be lucky to ever know who any of them are.

If an Iraqi sniper or terrorist were to take out Dubya, Rumsfeld and co, would the American public consider that a war crime?
