Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed.

The correct answer is A. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed

Explanation:

The excerpt presented belongs to a speech delivered by Presiden George W. Bush about the Iraq War that began in 2003 and was a response to the incidents that occur in September 11 in the U.S. In this speech Bush aims at explaining the audience although the war has not ended and the U.S. has not won, there is hope the American troops will succeed.

This includes phrases such as "Our mission continues. Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed" or "The war on terror is not over" that show the war is being successful but still needs to continue and phrases such as "Free nations will press on to victory" that show there is hope the war would end. Considering this, one of the lines that suggest the war effort had successes ut is not quite complete is "Al-Qaida is wounded, not destroyed" because this proves the efforts of the U.S. troops diminished terrorism but this effort needs to continue to end with it.
