The White House today acknowledged the limitations that had the Administration of President George W. Bush to find Osama bin Laden after the attacks of September 11 and assured that catch remains the number one priority of the U.S. Government
The White House spokesman, Dana Perino said that President Bush "is focused on achieving and, of course, wants to be brought to justice as soon as possible."
Perino stressed that the government has doubled its efforts to strengthen intelligence and coordinate its work with the Army to prevent another terrorist attack, but, despite everything, "there are human limitations," he said.
"This is not like in the movies. We do not have superpowers," said the spokesman.
Bin Laden, leader of the terrorist organization Al Qaeda, whom the U.S. administration noted as the head of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, has been relentlessly pursued by American troops during these seven years.
But during this time, Perino said, the U.S. Government has been successful in catching other members of the Al Qaeda network as Shikh Khalid Mohammed, considered the brains of the attacks and who is detained at the Guantanamo naval base.
Perino noted that the work of intelligence to locate bin Laden has been slowed, but remains the number one priority of the Bush Administration.
"We will not pay, this struggle and this search will continue until it is brought to justice," he said.
Tomorrow marks the seventh anniversary of the terrorist organization that attacks committed against the twin towers in New York and the Pentagon in Washington DC, that left thousands dead.
"The president (Bush) thinks about the attacks of September 11 every day. Since that rises up and you go to bed.'s Always worried about another terrorist attack which may be in the country," Perino said.
That is why we "continue our operations in Afghanistan and work with our allies around the world, especially in Europe, to dismantle conspiracies such as those of air strikes," he said.
