If Al Qaeda is winning, why is Osama hiding?

Where is Osama? The victor of a conflict generally has a parade through the streets. Why isn't Al Jazeera interviewing him? Because he has no place to call his own, that's why. As Saddam's former Minister of Information would say, Osama is running like a fraidy cat from our superior firepower! Only about a hundred Americans have been killed in Afghanistan. Of course as you all know, some of the Americans killed, were killed by friendly fire. So, there you have it, the great al Qaeda, lead by the magnificent warrior, Osama bin Laden has not been able to kill more than 100 Americans in Afghanistan in over 5 years. That's 20 American troop deaths a year. Really, it's laughable. There were so few American deaths in Afghanistan, the supposed stronghold of al Qaeda and bin Laden, that the News Hour on PBS neglected to report on the American troops killed in Afghanistan, for years! They listed the roles for recently killed troops in Iraq, but only recently started listing the Afghan war dead. I remain as unimpressed by the Taliban as I was when the war began.
