Following the Islamic terror attack in Mumbai, India in November, it was revealed that the tech-savvy terrorists used BlackBerries and Google Earth satellite-imaging to plan and carry out their atrocities.

It was the latest example of the West’s enemies employing 21st century technology to spread its 8th century ideology. It is also the most visible manifestation of a phenomenon that first came to the fore on September 11, 2001, and is spreading under the radar of ordinary people. Experts, however, are increasingly concerned about the spread of jihadist jujitsu – that is, of Muslim terrorists’ use of Western technology to destroy the West itself.

Muslim terrorists is a redundant term. Islam is only one component of a violent political system based on its own set of laws they expect everyone to obey.

Correction: I meant to say religion is only one component of a violent political system.

Jihadis use a variety of technology and media forums to get their messages out.

I do not know what the Facebook management is doing to stop the jihadis and/or jihad-related sites on Facebook.

WAIT . . . I think that we should protest the use of 21 Century technology by any “religion” stuck in the 9th Century. Jihadis should have to use the same weapons available in the 9th Century to the 14th Century and no others.

I am sure that somewhere in the Koran there’s mention of using the weapons available at the time the Koran was written. If so, the Jihadis are INFIDELS for using technology not listed in the Koran!

Kill the Infidel Muslim Jihadis who use current technology!

“Facebook Jihad”
By Robert Spencer
FrontPageMagazine.com | Friday, March 06, 2009

SNIPPET: “The jihad against Israel rages not just in Gaza, but worldwide, including on the Internet — and even on Facebook, as a 14-year-old American Jew named Todd Snider recently discovered. In July 2008, Snider started a Facebook group called “I Wonder How Quickly I Can Find 1,000,000 People Who Support Israel.” This group quickly grew to become the largest pro-Israel group on Facebook, with over 180,000 members. But then, unexpectedly, this group gave this enterprising and dedicated young man a lesson in jihadist intimidation and thuggery — including an unpleasant taste of how Western bureaucrats abet that thuggery, whether out of indifference or complicity.

On February 15, 2009, Snider recounts, “my inbox was suddenly flooded with messages.” His pro-Israel Facebook group had been hacked and destroyed by a pro-Hizballah group calling itself “Lebanese Shee’a Hackers.” The hackers completely erased the original site content and replaced it with pro-jihad, anti-Israel propaganda – while Facebook authorities stood by and let it all happen, answering Snider’s repeated entreaties for help with bland form letters.

The hackers gained administrative privileges to the “I Wonder How Quickly I Can Find 1,000,000 People Who Support Israel” group through the account of a co-administrator who had fallen for an illegal Internet phishing scheme, in which she was prompted to enter her account information and did so. They changed the group picture to one of Hassan Nasrallah and wrote the following obscene message in the Group Description section:

WELCOME TO BINT JBEIL, SOUTH LEBANON!

WELCOME TO BINT JBEIL, SOUTH LEBANON!

WELCOME TO BINT JBEIL, SOUTH LEBANON!

DEAR ADMINS,

DON’T WASTE MY AND YOUR TIME , LEAVE THIS GROUP ITS BETTER FOR BOTH THIS IS THE LAST TIME ILL EDIT YOU INFO , NEXT TIME

AND IN A COUPLE OF HOURS YOU WILL LOOSE EVERYTHING RELATED TO THIS GROUP.

IM TIRED NOW I WANT TO GO TO SLEEP AND ILL PUT THAT BANANA IN YOUR MOTHER’S ASS AND AGAIN I RECOMMEND YOU TO LEAVE THE GROUP TOMORROW I MAY ERASE EVRYTHING .

GOOD NIGHT ASSHOLES

Sayed Hassan Nasrallah, Leader of Hezbollah:

(2008)

‘O’ you Zionists!, O’ you murderers!, O’ you rapists!,

By God i swear, in the coming war,

we will confront you in a manner

you have never faced in your entire existence!’ “

(Bint Jbeil is the Lebanese city on the border with Israel that is known as the “Capital of Hizballah.”)”
