Passive E-Mail Monitoring Leads To Arrest
www.2advanced.net writes "The world's first arrest resulting from passive monitoring of electronic communications is being reported by Globe Technology. In the article, sources reveal that 'an e-mail message intercepted by NSA spies precipitated a massive investigation by intelligence officials in several countries that culminated in the arrest of nine men in Britain and one in suburban Orleans, Ont. -- 24-year-old software developer Mohammed Momin Khawaja, who has since been charged with facilitating a terrorist act and being part of a terrorist group.'"

I'm glad these guys were caught, but it's a shame that they had to be caught with these methods.

I'm glad the US Government continues to fight many wars on different fronts. Goes to show the idiots that the War on Terrorism is not distraction from other things.

Save your righteous indignation for someone who cares. We have to police the world because nobody else dares or cares to. Especially against those who would do the US harm.
If someone was planning a terrorist attack against the US, I'd hope the US would notice and take action. Just because you're hiding in another country, don't think that you're safe from US justice.
