Associated Press 2004 01 29:KABUL, Afghanistan - The U.S. military is "sure" it will catch Osama bin Laden this year, a spokesman said Thursday, but he declined to comment on where the al-Qaida leader may be hiding. . . .
Spokesman Lt. Col. Bryan Hilferty said the military now believed it could seize him within months.
. . .
Hilferty declined to comment on where exactly bin Laden or Mullah Omar might be hiding, but his optimism coincides with comments from U.S. officials in Washington that the military is planning a spring offensive. Alex Jones reported in August 2002 that White House sources had told him OBL was dead and on ice, waiting for the election. Last month, former Secretary of State of Madeline Albight said she thought OBL was being hidden by the Bush Administration.
