...But where bin Laden saw America's information economy as shallow and vulnerable, President Bush sees it as deep and resilient. Bush sees American minds as the country's source of economic strength. His policies — outlined during Wednesday's debate — are designed to tap that strength.

German investigators say they have evidence that Mohamed Atta, the suspected ringleader of the Sept. 11 attacks, and two accomplices trained at Qaeda camps in Afghanistan from late 1999 to early 2000.
