The head of US Central Command, General Tommy Franks, made the comments at a news conference at the US command center at Bagram air base, north of Afghanistan's capital Kabul. "They're either dead or they're running like hell," Franks told reporters. "That is the case with the leadership of the regime inside Iraq." Franks also spoke to hundreds of coalition soldiers before moving on to Kabul to meet with Afghan President Hamid Karzai and the US ambassador to Afghanistan. Franks is scheduled to return to the US Central Command forward base in Doha, Qatar on Friday evening. Thousands of US troops remain in Afghanistan to hunt down al-Qaida and Taliban fugitives who continue to target international forces in Afghanistan.
