| EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ATTACKING TERRORIST NETWORKS AT HOME AND ABROAD Since September 11, 2001, the United States, with the help of its allies and partners, has dismantled the repressive Taliban, denied al-Qaida a safe haven in Afghanistan, and defeated Saddam Hussein’s regime. Actions at home and abroad have produced the following results: Of the senior al-Qaida leaders, operational managers, and key facilitators the U.S. government has been tracking, nearly two-thirds have been taken into custody or killed. The Department of Justice has charged over 260 individuals uncovered in the course of terrorist investigations, and convicted or secured guilty pleas from over 140 individuals. The U.S. government has disrupted alleged terrorist cells in Buffalo, Seattle, Portland, Detroit, North Carolina and Tampa. Terror networks have lost access to nearly $200 million. .... It’s 23 pages so probably better to print it... Btw, not sure if this is ok to post, but I thought it would interest many people.... feel free to remove it if you don’t consider it news since it’s not from the press (it’s from the white house). |

| #1 Gee, I wonder how they define "senior Al Qaeda leaders." Hope it's not in a way that guarantees that 2/3 of them have been captured. |
