US regarding Bin Laden: "Our best assessment is he's still alive"

Separately, a senior U.S. official said Washington believes bin Laden is somewhere along Afghanistan's shared border with Pakistan.

"Our best assessment is he's still alive and that he's somewhere in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border area," U.S. Deputy Secretary of State John Negroponte told reporters on a visit to Kabul on Tuesday. "Wherever he is, he is hiding."
