Contrary to Senator Kerry, President Bush never "took his eye off the ball" when it came to Osama bin Laden. The war on terrorism has a global focus. It cannot be divided into separate and unrelated wars, one in Afghanistan and another in Iraq. Both are part of the same effort to capture and kill terrorists before they are able to strike America again, potentially with weapons of mass destruction. Terrorist cells are operating in some 60 countries, and the United States, in coordination with dozens of allies, is waging this war on many fronts.

may GOD bless Tommy Franks.....thank you for your service,General
Great article, wonder where this will run/ran at in the NYT
they will stick it in the middle next to some kerry ad!
This was true for the entire Afghan campaign. Robin Moore, in his book HUNTING FOR BIN LADEN, reminds us that when Kabul fell, there were about 100 US soldiers on the ground in Afghanistan. Maybe John Kerry thinks he could have put two divisions into Tora Bora to finish off bin Laden, but, then, Kerry is an idiot.
Franks confirmed all this in his book American Soldier so he's not just blowing smoke now.
If this is really going into the NY Times, then I expect it will appear on the OpEd page. That's where they put editorials by famous people.
That would probably be second best to the front page. Quite a lot of exposure.
