Participants on key Arabic-language Al-Qaida chat forums on the Internet have announced their intent to launch collective cyberterrorist attacks tomorrow, August 10, aimed at interrupting or denying service to other pro-Israeli websites--namely the "Internet Haganah" cyberterror watchdog site run by Aaron Weisburd. When I asked him what he thought of the purported threat, Aaron expressed strong skepticism that these efforts would produce any noticeable disruption in access to his site. He replied, "They have a reasonable chance of slowing down the responsiveness of one domain of the ten associated with the Internet Haganah web site."
More importantly, these would-be attacks represent part of a growing wave of similar defacement and denial of service attacks targeting various American bloggers and pro-Western websites.
If you don't have your guard up they probably can.
I don't know why they even bother. The UN is already working hard to stop people from exposing the truth of what Islam really is on the internet. Islamic totalitarian Nazi's also have the Democrats working on it as well.
You'd think they would concentrate on bigger problems, like making sure their Rueters media pals have an ample supply of clean teddy bears to photograph in the rubble of bombed Hezbollah hideouts.
I can't believe we haven't taken every terrorist supporting site down. I've been amazed that we have allowed the terrorists to post photos and anti-US comments without seeing to it that those sites were history.
Do we have a cyber brigade? Where is it?
Better to leave a few up and watch the traffic.
Crap, the internet here is already unstable from the DOS and port scans from Britainy and Spain. What you get when you send a islamic immigrant to school is not a well adjusted citizen, but a cyber terrorist.
Oh well, no battlefield 2 game tonight...
Thanks John. As I was writing what I did, that did occur to me. There is something to be said for that. I do sometimes question if it doesn't come at a high price considering the propaganda value, and the rise in tensions due to it's inflammatory nature.
I appreciate the alternative view.
