A U.S. official said Monday that the “mother lode of intelligence” had been seized during Sunday’s raid on Osama bin Laden’s compound. Navy SEALs grabbed personal computers, thumb drives, and electronic equipment during the raid that killed the al Qaeda leader. The official said “hundreds of people” are exploring the data, and intelligence operatives in Washington are excited to find out what is there. “It is going to be great, even if only 10 percent is actionable,” the official said. Other details emerged about Sunday’s raid, including how team reported the capture with the pre-arranged signal “Geronimo!”
