Zarqawi’s Computer Discovered:
What the task force did find in the vehicle confirmed suspicions that Zarqawi had just escaped. The official said Zarqawi’s computer and 80,000 euros (about $104,000 U.S.) were discovered in the truck.
Finding the computer, said the official, “was a seminal event.” It had “a very big hard drive,” the official said, and recent pictures of Zarqawi. The official said Zarqawi’s driver and a bodyguard were taken into custody.
We’re going to get a ton of good data off that drive. Given that they’ve already recovered photos off of it, it appears the drive may not have been encrypted.
Perhaps Zarqawi watches 24. He escaped much like the bad guy on that TV series did a few weeks ago:
The senior military official said that they have since learned Zarqawi jumped out of the vehicle when it passed beneath an overpass, presumably to avoid detection from the air, and hid there before running to a safe house in Ramadi.
