I want Americans and all the world to know that coalition forces will make every effort to spare innocent civilians from harm. A campaign on the harsh terrain of a nation as large as California could be longer and more difficult than some predict.

Deep in my heart I know [<s></s>Osama bin Laden<s></s>] is on the run, if he's alive at all. Who knows if he's hiding in some cave or not; we haven't heard from him in a long time.
