Cia believes al Qaeda is now weker than ever, although it is too soon to say “mission accomplished”. Cia director, Panetta, says it’s too soon to say that the mission has been accomplished in Afghanistan but he believes that the militant group has slimmed down to 100 individuals in the country. Other are in the mountains bordering with Pakistan.
Al Qaeda leaders are at risk, although the United States are still having a hard time doing away with Talibans.
