More information is coming out about the Al Qaeda documents found in Mohammed Atef’s house:

- Documents found in Afghanistan spotlight the U.S. Capitol, Seattle’s Space Needle and a portion of Los Angeles, suggesting these areas were being considered for a terrorist attack, ABCNEWS has learned, as new violence threatens Afghan stability.

Sources said the documents were recovered from the home of Osama bin Laden’s top military commander, Mohammed Atef, who was killed in the U.S. airstrikes in Afghanistan. Atef’s home was the site where officials also found the recently released videotapes of five “suicide terrorists” being sought by the U.S. government.

The documents, sources said, referred to Washington, D.C., specifically the U.S. Capitol. Among the items found in Afghanistan were a picture of the Space Needle and a satellite image of a six-block area of what officials say appears to be a portion of Los Angeles, the sources said.

I sure would like to know exactly which six-block area of Los Angeles is in that photo.
