March 20, 2002 -- WASHINGTON - The al Qaeda forces routed in a recent bloody battle were so well organized, they used the Internet and laptop computers to communicate as they dashed from cave to cave.

The ultrasophisticated communications system used by the terrorists was reported by U.S. forces after searches of the cave network abandoned during Operation Anaconda.

"They are outfitted in equipment that is as good or better than any of us in the coalition have."

Something to remember the next time the DemocRATS whine about military spending.

Any groups that can devise contact with an isp by any means has instant full communication as good as we have on this site. Radios and whatever are obsolete.

Anybody have any idea how they connect to the internet from their caves?
I have 2-way sattelite, but the dish is mounted outside.
I'm really stumped on this.

[RLK]

Must be a sattelite link of some kind. Beats me.

Satellite phones, I think.

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

I think some kind of sattelite also, but it seems like our sattelites could back track???
Anyway so much for their dislike of Western goods etc.

"..Hagenback and other military officials said they were also surprised by the large amounts of cash the al Qaeda and Taliban fighters had at their disposal that they used to bribe local villagers out of their homes and bribe warlords in order to later escape..."

"Anyway so much for their dislike of Western goods etc".

Exactly. Use our creations against us.I bet #42 is rather happy with himself today,as he loosened the "Encryption Laws" a few years ago,making it more difficult for our CIA to subvert people like this.It's just 1 more example that shows the horrible humanity of #42.
