Eight Years After 9/11: Why Osama bin Laden is a Failure
Right. So it would seem to me that the msm is already laying the groundwork to bail out Obama when he inevitably has to tell us that Osama is really not relevant any more. I wonder how that will play out?

I'd like nothing better than to capture and/or kill Bin Hiden but IMO he is dead and buried under tons of rock and has been that way for years.
Oh and libs, you can thank "W" for relegating Bin Laden to the dead and irrelevant pile. It was Bush, dislike him or hate him, that made the hard decision to go after terrorism around the world. And he remained steadfast in the face of some of most vile and hateful rhetoric from you "enlightened" and "nuanced" jerk-offs, that I have ever seen.

Eight Years After 9/11: Why Osama bin Laden is a Failure
He may have eluded justice and the long reach of the world's most powerful military force; his followers may (and probably will) strike again at some point in the future, near or distant; but history's verdict on Osama bin Laden has been in for some time, now: Al-Qaeda failed.
The 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington - like those that preceded it in East Africa in 1998 and those that followed in London, Madrid, Bali and other places - were tactical successes, in that they managed to kill hundreds of innocents, grab the world's headlines and briefly dominate the nightmares of Western policy makers. But the strategy of which those attacks formed part has proven to be fundamentally flawed. Terrorism departs from the rules of war by deliberately targeting the innocent, but it shares the basic motive force of conventional warfare - "the pursuit of politics by other means, " as Clausewitz wrote. (See pictures of the challenge of memorializing 9/11.)
The purpose of the 9/11 attacks was not simply to kill Americans; they formed part of Bin Laden's strategy to launch a global Islamist revolution aimed at ending U.S. influence in Muslim countries, overthrowing regimes there allied with Washington, and putting al-Qaeda at the head of a global Islamist insurgency whose objective was to restore the rule of the Islamic Caliphate that had once ruled territory stretching from Moorish Spain through much of Asia.
