The President says the enemy is 'running out of places to hide.' BUSH: We are deliberately and systematically hunting down these murderers, and will bring them to justice. In Afghanistan, with B-52 bombers and F18 jets pounding the taliban frontlines. The US military vows to continue the attacks -- 'for as long as it takes.' GENERAL TOMMY FRANKS/U-S FORCES COMMANDER - This effort is 24 hours a day, it has been and it will continue to be 24 hours a day. That fighting spirit is echoed at the Justice Department.
