Is Osama mentioned in the ISG?

Been overrun at work and haven't had time to look.

its the IRAQ study group.

:banghead:

I opened the smilies table, grabbed the ringing phone, started talking, thought I hit the sarcasm icon and hit post.

Osama and Iraq.

sorry if it seemed I was targeting you.

added this on edit: Nor did I take it personally.

original message: I'm still overwhelmed at work. I'm on a small break while my husband/boss is getting ready to go teach a class.

Shhhh! I'm posting on the sly.

everybody in the area except Al Qeada.

Terrorism could grow. As one Iraqi official told us, “Al
Qaeda is now a franchise in Iraq, like McDonald’s.” Left
unchecked, al Qaeda in Iraq could continue to incite violence
between Sunnis and Shia. A chaotic Iraq could provide a still
stronger base of operations for terrorists who seek to act regionally
or even globally. Al Qaeda will portray any failure by
the United States in Iraq as a significant victory that will be featured
prominently as they recruit for their cause in the region
and around the world. Ayman al-Zawahiri, deputy to Osama
bin Laden, has declared Iraq a focus for al Qaeda: they will
seek to expel the Americans and then spread “the jihad wave to
the secular countries neighboring Iraq.” A senior European of-
ficial told us that failure in Iraq could incite terrorist attacks
within his country.

There are at least 3 different pdf versions of the Iraq Study Group report
