Sometimes people are so dumb, it's actually funny.
The U.S. military said on Wednesday it had discovered a list of some 500 al Qaeda militants recruited to fight in Iraq from a range of European, Middle East and north African countries.
Spokesman Major-General Kevin Bergner said the information was unearthed in September when a senior al Qaeda in Iraq member, called Muthanna, was killed along with seven other militants near Sinjar in northwest Iraq.
This is the exact same thing that happened to John Gotti Jr. He kept a list of all the made members of the Gambino crime family hidden in a wall in his house. When the feds found it, they were giving a list of people that they knew and some they didn't know about.
This is a major windfall for the US military as it now allows them to narrow their search down instead of relying on other tactics exclusively.
Bergner told a news conference that the information discovered included 143 biographies of foreign recruits, with personal data, photographs, their recruiters' names, date of entry into Iraq and the route they took.
It doesn't get much better then that. :)
