Kerry keeps accusing us of "losing Osama" due to "outsourcing the job" in Afganistan. Wall Street Journal addresses all of this garbage. Kerry is thinking like a former prosecutor, not a warrior. He seems to think that if we can get Osama, global terrorism will melt away.
A friend of mine is from the Middle East. Back in 2001, he said "Osama is nothing. If we kill him, others will rise up to take his place." Prescient words indeed.
Of course I'd like to know what happened to him. But when we killed Admiral Yamamoto, the man who planned Pearl Harbor, world war II did not come to a screeching halt. The Japanese military was much more hierarchical than al Quaeda or any of the other shadowy terror organizations.
And if you think Osama bin Laden got away and is running free somewhere, why are there no videos thumbing his nose at Bush? I strongly suspect he is toast.
