Bin Laden Haul: Hard Drives, DVDs

Analysts poring over new trove.

It’s not just Osama bin Laden’s body that Navy SEALs removed from the compound in Abbottabad. They also snagged a huge cache of new information, including sheaves of documents, 10 hard drives, five computers and 100 storage devices, apparently including thumb drives and DVDs. Hundreds of CIA analysts are now picking through the take, looking for actionable intelligence. Officials hope it will provide valuable tips to help arrest other terrorists and prevent future attacks. “It’s going to be great even if only 10 percent of it is actionable,” one official said. CIA director Leon Panetta, in his first public comments on the raid, called the haul “impressive.”
