Who's to Blame and What Now?

In a report released by the Democratic Staff of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee says that in 2001 that we should have caught Osama Bin Laden. The report says that Bin Laden was cornered in Tora Bora mountain region in Afghanistan. Its even reported that Bin Laden wrote his will during this time. The report goes on to state that the Bush administration messed up the whole situation and with held the troops needed to cut off osama's escape. The report also suggests that catching Bin Laden in 2001 would have prevented the problems we are having now in Afghanistan and Iraq.

I find this report quite interesting in the fact that all they are doing is pointing fingers. What good does it do to say that someone screwed up there's nothing that can be done to change what happened. I do believe that more troops were necessary in that situation and could have possibly lead to the capture of Bin Laden. But in reality its just speculation we can't know what would have happened. I personally would like to think that we would have caught him right there and saved yourselves alot of problems. We now need to focus on what we're going to do in the here and now to catch Bin Laden, I have no doubt that we can catch him and that we will. In the years since the attacks of 9/11 Osama has been hiding he hasn't been able t show his face anywhere and he is living in constant fear of capture. We need to say strong and keep the hunt going a report like this means nothing it's all just a bunch of could've would have should've. Let's live in the hear and now!
