I wonder if the CIA analysis will find any porn on them. What if the courier was doing something extra. What's your take on this?:sneaky:

 

[Newbian]

Maybe they used those usb drives to format people's computers.. :sneaky:

So much porn they will be watching soon.

Why? Their IT guy didn't allow bootable USB drives.

Don't believe everything you read or hear from the CIA or US Govt. A good part of the news tidbits they release to the public is done for psychological purposes to cause panic and concern amongst Al-Qaeda ranks. i.e. 1 hard drive becomes 10 drives. A box of documents becomes a treasure trove. This kind of truth stretching is quite common, and it's done intentionally.

It's potentially true. I know that Al-Qaeda employ similar tactics (exaggerating enemy casualties/vehicles destroyed in order to earn more respect and money). It's not hard to imagine the government doing the same.

I just wanted an excuse to use the icon.

I have no doubt that everything the government releases is not 100% true. The media is a great tool to use to their advantage. Why not exploit it when possible?


Its not like that type of information is pertinent to any regular American. If there were 10 hard drives or 100 hard drives it doesn't matter to me.

Yeah, for all we know it was 100 10gb SCSI drives or 100 256kb thumb drives.

I bet this stuff is at Fort Meade rather than Langley.

 

[Vic Vega]

This intel is as good as getting Osama, IMO.

wtf is up with that?! It seems that the fact that they obtained such items should at least be classified. IF it DOES contain information about where other terrorists are located, it's pretty retarded to announce that we have such a pile of evidence. Any nervous terrorist is going to be long gone before we ever have a chance to interpret what info is available.

The nervous terrorist would guess that the US ops found the data, since the operation was a gun fight (low damage to surroundings) as opposed to total demolition bomb strike.

The government has said they are admitting they got intel in hopes nervous al qaeda members will "go to ground" thus disrupting the organization.

 

[AMCRambler]

Burka porn ftw

 

[BoomerD]

Damn...I'll bet they're going to find the pre-release version of Duke Nukem Forever Gold...I TOLD them to hide it before they got caught...damned pirates anyway...

US Gov? Hell I stretch the truth like that all the time. I thought it was quite common.
