Anonymous has begun publishing names and addresses of alleged ISIS recruiters.
The masked hacking group declared war against the Islamic State in the wake of the Paris attacks, vowing to silence extremist propaganda and expose undercover operatives.
Mirror Online has seen the names, addresses and phone numbers of men living in countries including Afghanistan, Tunisia and Somalia.
Anonymous activists also claimed to have identified a "high-ranking" recruiter living in Europe, but have not yet published an address.
We have contacted some of the men who have been named, but they have not replied and we have been unable to verify if the allegations against them are true.

Shows you how much we should trust Twitter.
Wow amazing. Our tech people couldn’t do that. Oh wait our tech people are obamas and he is pals with isis.

Great point hadn’t thought of that.
You know, I’ve wondered if this group, “Anonymous’, actually exists as a ‘Shadowy hacking group’ at all.
What if they are actually the NSA or CIA or some other country’s intel service, masquerading behind a ‘Guy Fawkes’ mask?......................
Thanks UMCRevMom@aol.com. It would be nice if they'd do this fo Facebook.
Good job Anonymous...
