The CIA boss said the US had successfully isolated the al Qaeda leader bin Laden, and that the failure to kill or capture bin Laden in the seven years since the 9/11 attacks, could be explained by the "rugged and inaccessible" terrain of the Afghanistan-Pakistan border area and "the fact that bin Laden has worked to avoid detection." Hayden also said that the CIA thwarted an al Qaeda attack that would have rivaled 9/11, that al Queda in Iraq is on the verge of a "strategic defeat" and that al Queda's adaptability is like nothing that the US has ever faced before.
