Its becoming harder and harder to tell if we are winning or not.
This article from the Victoria Times-Colonist on 18 July (Threat of Terrorism Growing US Intelligence Report Warns) says that since 2002 the US led effort has slowed the growth of AQ but adds that the organization has regenerated its attack capability from its new base of operations in northwestern Pakistan (note - probably refering to the provinces of north and south Waziristan). The report also states that US pressure on Iran may provoke Tehran-funded Hezbollah to strike inside the USA from a base in Lebanon. The report is based on analysis of 16 US intwelligence agencies (but does not state who did the analysis).
Would like to provide full article but the VTC has already pulled it and although some US stories are similiar the text is different to reflect a local focus. This is the best I got: http://www.canada.com/victoriatimescolonist/news/story.html?id=aa12da4d-cf60-4b50-ba03-8a5c287cd611
