Great information, but the source author needs to find a good editor, lots of typos and grammar problems!

COMBATING TERRORISM CENTER AT WEST POINT - Harmony Project
“AL-QA’IDA’S FOREIGN FIGHTERS IN IRAQ
A First Look at the Sinjar Records”

Saddam Hussein: Formally jihadi #1 and the tutti capo tutti of arab terrorism.

BTW -
Here is a good link for the Sinjar Records in English (606 names)

Expect the authors to suddenly find their positions eliminated or downgraded to GS-3.
I have been reading that the combat captured insurgents have been mostly foreign fighters. This report is specific to the Al Qaeda (Al Qa’ida) originated ISI organization. In this report it states that the vast majority of the fighters today have nothing to do with Al Qaeda but the report doesn’t state were those groups originated from.
Who are the other groups and are they mostly home grown combatants or mostly foreign fighters?
A study by The Combating Terrorism Center at West Point of al Qaeda documents deemed the "Sinjar Records" indicates that al Qaeda was, in fact, able to operate inside the country during the rule of the former regime. The center also has previously posted internal al Qaeda documents in which al Qaeda members revealed to one another that "some of them went to Saddam" likely in referrence to al Qaeda members fleeing Afghanistan to Iraq.
"Let's be clear on this -- there wasn't any al-Qaeda in Iraq until the Bush administration invaded that country. If you want a second opinion about this, ask me again in a couple of weeks."
please point them out. i am the author and did it very late. sorry.
editing now...
Should say, “-— hotly contested ISSUE that —”
It looks like you caught the other ones.
