Al Qaeda remains the number one enemy of the US, even as strength of this terrorist outfit has been considerably weakened, the White House said today. "Al Qaida remains our number-one enemy and our number- one foe.

That is why we focus so much of our attention on Al Qaeda and its affiliates, because the struggle against Al Qaeda continues, and the (US) President has been focused on it since the day he took office," White House Press Secretary Jay Carney told reporters.
