Al-Qaeda 'getting stronger' Iraq: US 'behind schedule' Bush faces showdown over Iraq Iraq pull-out would be a 'mess'

Washington - US President George W Bush denied on Thursday that al-Qaeda is as strong today as it was before the September 11 attacks.

Bush spoke to reporters after media reports, citing a new intelligence report, that the militant network is now as great a threat to US soil as in the months before the suicide hijack-plane attacks in 2001.

"There is a perception in the coverage that al-Qaeda may be as strong today as they were prior to September 11. That's just simply not the case," Bush told a news conference.
