The U-S is moving closer to its goal of taking down the terrorist network in Afghanistan.
The Al-Qaida training chief and the former Taliban ambassador are now in custody.
Afghanistan's new prime minister vows to arrest Taliban leader Mohammed Omar.
But the biggest suspect is still on the loose.
Bob Orr says the ultimate success of the war depends on the capture of Osama bin Laden.

Osama bin Laden.

still be hiding in a cave or one of eight known terrorist camps US

Afghanistan under the protection of a local warlord . Still, an

"Because as long as he is alive, as long as he is a symbol, we will not

bin Laden a personal focus...

"OUR ENEMY IS A RADICAL NETWORK OF TERRORISTS, AND EVERY GOVERNMENT THAT
SUPPORTS THEM"

....now ties HIS fate to the success of the war.

"It is important for the purpose of the message that we're sending to
the world, that the enemy leaders BE captured or killed or both and that
there be no confusion as to what were the consequences of taking on the
United States, of doing it harm."
(ORR ON CAMERA)
Polls continue to show an overwhelming majority of Americans backs the
Afghan war effort ...and understand winning it could take a long time.
But, experts warn, if the US fails to kill or capture bin Laden,
public support for the WIDER war on terrorism could be lost. Bob
