Bush lied to us on May 1, 2003, on the aircraft carrier with the sign "Mission Accomplished"in the war on Iraq. We all remember that. What we don't remember is he also did it with the war on the Taliban/Al Qaeda as shown below.
On June 24, 2003, President Bush declared al-Qaeda's leadership largely defunct. At a Camp David summit, Bush praised Pakistan's Gen. Pervez Musharraf, crediting his country with apprehending more than 500 members of al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
"Thanks to President Musharraf's leadership, on the al-Qaeda front we've dismantled the chief operators," Bush said. Although bin Laden was still at large, his lieutenants were "no longer a threat to the United States or Pakistan," Bush added.
