This was late 1999 but I also remember in 2001, in the weeks leading up to 9/11 that this site was getting slammed by posts from all kinds of pro-palestinian pro-terrorist trolls, etc. It was like a horde of vicious moonbats had been unleashed.
There was odd email spam before 9/11, too.
I always glance at my junk folder now before deleting each batch.
If only the good guys could have thought out of the box — like terrorists...maybe the course of history would have been different.
Unfortunately, terrorists in general and jihadis specifically are so full of hate; it’s hard to think like them and anticipate their next move.
If one could summarize the jihad hate factor in a generalized word nugget it would be: Create a global caliphate, global sharia law, kills Jews, and kill Christians.
