Book Chapter
Survivor and Planner, 2001–2010
2011
Overview
This chapter focuses on Osama bin Laden’s survival from the U.S. strike on Afghanistan in 2001, which was America’s retaliation for the 9/11 attacks, and his planning until 2010. It begins by considering bin Laden’s efforts to goad Washington into invading Afghanistan before discussing various opinions about whether he and his al-Qaeda organization survived the U.S. onslaught. More specifically, it analyzes the notion that bin Laden and his fighters were able to escape from the Tora Bora Mountains to Pakistan. It also examines the organizational reordering undertaken by bin Laden in Pakistan, along with his media war that builds on the media operations he mounted during and after the Afghan jihad. The chapter concludes by assessing the U.S. invasion and occupation of Iraq in 2003 and what it means for bin Laden.
