Portable USB 'hardrive'. About the size of a flattend lipstick.
It's in his pocket bacause he can take all his important documents, contact lists, vacation & goat-erotica photos with him where ever he goes!
Significant cause we want those docs and contact lists!
It sounds like we may now know his buddies, other 'safe' houses, plans and the fact that they aren't very well prepared to fight against the US / Iraqi forces anymore. They're scraping the bottom of the barrel since we've been culling their 'best & brightest' over the past few years. :)
Apparently there are news reports from the MNF's presser coming out saying that the Coalition has conducted more than 450 raids since we killed the Z man. In those raids we have killed some 104 terrorists, captured hundreds more and found many caches of weapons.
I (possibly foolishly) assume you know what I mean by USB and harddrive :)
For those go here:

This one at Circuit City is a hell of a deal too!!! 1GB storage for $25 (after rebate).
We will need to keep troops there for years to come a la Germany and Korea and Japan. The enemy will not be defeated but only beaten in Iraq which is only a small portion of enemy territory and it is not Lepanto or Vienna. Thus far we are engaging in border wars with the enemy, we have not crushed the center. We have not crushed his armies. A democratic Iraq may be a spark for change in the Mohammedan world but it will not ignite the blast instantly and we must stay close in the neighborhood to safeguard the experiment.
This must be causing some real problems for alqueda. Their choices are: Sit still and get caught or run and get caught.
I also think the coalition is targeting other insurgent groups as well. That is a good thing!
How stupid was that? Not as stupid as this!! Their own leader is ratting on alqueda "from the grave"...Like....if I croak, you do, too.
I bought a 4GB at Newegg for $90 last week!
I think the Iraqi PM is talking tough simply *because* the data on the drive was so revealing. Maybe it was so good that's why he was talking about when US forces could possibly leave.
Many of us have posting about what might have been retrieved while Zark Pig was dying and after his death.
Of course the left wing maggots of America, who were in love with Zark Pig are telling us that he was nothing. Some are even saying he was a creation of Karl Rove. Wonder how in any of these seditious bastards were named?
One of these days, we might be reading about American Allies and a$$holes on al Qaeda's payrolls or as allies in their Jihad against Americans.
The death of Zark Pig may be the gift that keeps on giving for a very long time. The average Iraqi has lost relatives, friends and suffered from al Qaeda in Iraq and of course the relationship between al Qaeda and $addam. Life has become very tough for al Qaeda serial killers in Iraq, Jordan and other close countries.
Actually, Dog explained it very nicely in a FReepmail and P&V, you've added to his explanation.
Sacajaweau, thanks for trying :))
And last, but not least...
....Laz..
...I am that gullible !!!
Like I have been saying for years, our allies in the Mideast will kill 100X the number of terrorists that we will because they know the language/culture and are far more ruthless than we will ever be.
The greatest blow to the democrats would be if this info leads to the dismantling of Al-Quaeda worldwide. What would there reaction be, I wonder, if information gleaned in this raid in Iraq, led to the capture of Osama Bin Laden or his henchmen in Pakistan? How the heck would they spin that? They've been trying to say for years that Iraq has nothing to do with 9/11, but if this intelligence leads to the end of Al-Quaeda, how many heads are going to explode?
Is that a pickle or a thumb drive in your pocket?:)
Oh, so Z-man had one of those little do-dads on him, eh? I hadn't heard that.
Convenient, yet pesky little things carrying all sorts of info like names, phone numbers, addresses, schematics, plans, drawings, communiques, charts, spread sheets, Dollar Amounts, recipes....yep, technology sure can be pesky in some circumstances.
Fully agree, LS.
Ping that Zarqawi had a thumbnail drive in his pocket when he was zotted. Talk about your treasure trove...
