In August, Sen. Barack Obama had made the argument that, as president, he would target Al Qaeda officials in Pakistan even without the
country's acquiescence -- the type of attack that, six months later, proved to be successful.

been replaced. Al Qaeda isn't the least bit affected negatively in the long run by this strike.
