Not sure if the CNN article has this but the Fox News article
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,120875,00.html that talks about this very same attack scenario also says that Al Qaeda has
FULLY reconstituted itself and is as stroing as ever and growing with new recruits.
THAT bothers me greatly because it suggests that progress in the war on terror is not being made. Not exactly a ringing endorsement of how Bush has handled the war on terror if true.
