US officials warn long Afghan engagement amid bin Laden hunt
Washington officials say American troops may stay in Afghanistan for years to pursue Osama bin Laden and al Qaeda leaders. They stress avoiding a full occupation while continuing humanitarian aid and supporting a post-Taliban government with aid agencies and possibly UN peacekeepers. Military leaders note force levels should deter future terror while assisting opposition, with focus on Tora Bora and ongoing fighting in the region.
