Are we winning or losing the War on Terror? The Bush Administration deep-sixed a long-standing annual report on terrorism which showed terror attacks increasing, not declining. Now they want partial credit for almost catching bad guys. We nearly caught Osama bin Laden at Tora Bora in Afghanistan. Now, according to CNN, officials are bragging that they nearly caught Abu Musab al-Zarqawi:
U.S. troops chased down a suspicious vehicle and later determined that al-Zarqawi had been in it but had escaped.
Gosh, if we actually started winning the War on Terror, there might be less reason for the extraordinary powers the Bush Administration has claimed for itself. Hmmm…
