Googling terror 16 Jan 2007

From The Telegraph:

"Terrorists attacking British bases in Basra are using aerial footage displayed by the Google Earth internet tool to pinpoint their attacks, say Army intelligence sources.

"Documents seized during raids on the homes of insurgents last week uncovered print-outs from photographs taken from Google.

"The satellite photographs show in detail the buildings inside the bases and vulnerable areas such as tented accommodation, lavatory blocks and where lightly armoured Land Rovers are parked."
