ObL and the Chechens, Circa 1998

Judicial Watch has obtained a 1998 Defense Intelligence Agency memo (PDF) that sketches out Osama bin Laden's plans and activities throughout central Asia. The headline-making bit will probably be the DIA's emphasis on Chechnya as a potential "base for training terrorists," due to it being "unreachable by strikes from the West."
