Obama: Bin Laden still pursued, 'deep underground'

Nine years after the September 11 attacks, President Barack Obama said the US has forced Osama bin Laden "deep underground" but Americans will face an expanded terror threat for years to come from other al-Qaeda extremists "willing to die to kill other people."

The government is no less determined to kill or capture the September 11 architect, he said. But Americans must remember the fight is with al-Qaeda terrorists, not the much wider world of people of Muslim faith. (AP)
