en The one thing he's done that's risky [since the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001] is keep releasing his tapes. But he's in a classic case of catch 22, which is if he doesn't release his tapes, he fades and becomes a historical figure rather than somebody who's actually influencing events. And if he does release the tapes, he remains in the game, but then he opens himself to being found.
