Back at Sargat, the next day, the team members made a startling discovery--almost half the dead bodies there were foreigners. The team knew that Ansar al-Islam was a mixture of Kurds and foreigners, but there were many more foreigners in Sargat than they had expected. On the bodies the soldiers found foreign identity cards, visas, and passports from a wide variety of Middle Eastern and north African countries: Yemen, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, Tunisia, Morocco, and Iran. They also found stubs and receipts of plane tickets for travel around the Middle East. It sure looked like an international terrorist training camp to them.
No link with Iraq and islamic terrorists here...
