newsfactor.com — there are real people, in real space, maintaining what is, in effect, al-Qaeda's I.T. department. Last October, the most important member of that group so far -- the man who has been called "the Godfather of cyber-terrorism" -- was arrested. He is a 22-year-old Muslim immigrant to Great Britain named Younis Tsouli.

I guess I must have missed that part in the Quran speaking out against computers and the Internet.

Cool. Let's send our boys out to find these pieces of human debris and arrange their meeting of 72 hairy virgins.

Hey, give the guy some credit. Downloading and cataloging terabytes of Goat-Porn can't be easy. I guess movie night at the Al Qaeda Training Camps is about to get very boring.

The guy who wrote this article knows nothing about terrorist networks. There is no overarching organization that directs all terrorists: That's a fiction that the US government has perpetrated on the world. In reality, there's just little individual terrorist groups who all share the same general goal: Kill all non-muslims. There's no great conspiracy organization directing them all. They just hate the west and hate the jews. They don't need anyone to tell them which group to hate, it just comes from their clerics and their culture.

Everyone gets their bomb making instructions off Amazon.com nowadays, search "explosives". What's that? You're on a tight muji budget? Home Workshop Explosives, Second Edition by Uncle Fester, Used & New for $12.64. Anarchist Cookbook by William Powell $18.97. Improvised Munitions Handbook Vol. 1 by the U.S. Department of Defense, a steal at $3.97. Wow, Explosives Engineering $106.87 for the well funded Saudi terrorist. WWI technology > West.

"Irhabi007 started appearing on radical Islamist bulletin boards and in chat rooms. For his user I.D., he melded "irhabi," which means "terrorist" in Arabic, to the code number of the world's most famous, albeit fictional, British secret agent. "Wow... he uses "terrorist007" as his handle. We're lucky MI5 is really good at spotting those guys, even with the most subtle appearances. Surely, a guy with a web page and several post on a forum is the proof that there a large organization with unbelievable power and skills is ready to storm our world.. I mean, once he stops ranting on forums and chatrooms.Ben Laden must be sooo pissed.
