Franks defends Gulf War approach against bin Laden threat
General Franks says he will carry out Bush war plan as intended and aims to destroy al Qaida and Taliban in Afghanistan rather than target Osama bin Laden. Bush, Rumsfeld, and other officials outline broad global terror targets while Franks avoids troop-by-troop detail and mentions possible carrier redeployment to the Arabian Sea.
