I knew PowerPoint could be boring - but not deadly

defensetech.org reports that insurgent snipers in Iraq are training with the help of an online training manual.

According to ABC a Defense Department document is being disseminated to U.S. commanders in Iraq to inform them about the insurgency's newest tactic.

The manual was turned into a PowerPoint presentation and given to Defense and National Interest "primarily to make it widely available to U.S. troops, including those in the U.S," the site's editor, Chet Richards says.
