Bush and al-Qaeda

Nearly six years after President Bush pledged to capture him "dead or alive," Osama bin Laden is not only still at large, but he and his al-Qaeda organization have apparently benefited greatly from Bush's decision to invade Iraq.. It's the inevitable conclusion from the declassified summary of a White House intelligence report released to great fanfare yesterday.

The U.S. occupation of Iraq has provided them with a potent rallying cry, recruiting tool and training ground they would not have had otherwise. Bush and Osama are good for each other.
