TDS Internet Services: News: Captured al-Qaeda documents show inner struggles, strategies

TDS Internet Services: News: Captured al-Qaeda documents show inner struggles, strategies:
"Recently captured al-Qaeda documents portray terrorist leaders struggling over strategy, facing challenges by subordinates and issuing guidelines listing minimum qualifications for terrorism training camp supervisors.
Drawn from a classified database called 'Harmony' compiled by the U.S. Special Operations Command, the documents were disclosed in a report released by West Point's Combating Terrorism Center. The documents were obtained during recent anti-terrorism operations, the report says. They came from a variety of sources and were selected because they show al-Qaeda discussions of ideology, tactics, potential operations or training."
