Despite some Pakistani claims to the contrary, the search for Osama bin Laden has intensified. The recent arrest of Al Qaeda's number three man, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed has renewed hope that not all trails in the war on terror have grown cold.

U.S. special forces soldiers are reported to be searching the remote northeast and southwest corners of Afghanistan. This past weekend, seven more suspected Al Qaeda operatives were apprehended in Afghanistan and it was reported, then denied, that two of bin Laden's sons might have been among them.

Osama bin Laden himself slipped off the intelligence radar after the American-led assault on the Tora Bora cave region 15 months ago. Back on the trail of America's most wanted. The search for Osama bin Laden.
