As New Tape Is Evaluated, Bush Calls Qaeda Threat Real

News of the existence of an audio message claiming to be Bin Laden’s has prompted the Bush administration to once again emphasize the real danger of the Al Qaeda network. Recent events, such as the bombings in Indonesia, seem to indicate that Al Qaeda is regrouping in preparation for more attacks against the United States. For months, U.S. military experts have debated whether or not Bin Laden was still alive, but the new evidence provided by the audio message seems to indicate that he is alive and is in hiding in the eastern regions of Afghanistan. – YaleGlobal
