Where is what’s left to find?

Instructions: Osama Bin Ladin, the leader of the terrorist organization Al-Quada, has been alluding the U.S. for years now. Your mission is to follow the clues to each new location until you find Bin Ladin. Begin looking in Iraq, where President George W. Bush argued that Al-Quada had connections, and use the clue to the right to find the next location. You will use each of the The Hunt for Osama Bin Ladin following locations, though not in the order that they appear. Number each location to the left to keep track of your progress and clearly mark each location on your maps as you go. The hiding place of Bin Ladin is not listed below or on your other worksheet, but will be found by following the clues to the end. Maps beginning on page 1008 in the back of the textbook will help. Raise your hand if you need me to give you a clue.
