Al-Qaeda Web Sites Go Offline

Posted by kdawson on from the i-hack-you dept.

thefickler writes "Four out of the five Al-Qaeda online forums have disappeared. The terrorist group used these forums to relay messages to its supporters. The four that have gone missing seem to have taken a hit back on September 10, the day before the annual video marking the 9/11 attacks was due to be disseminated. No one knows who is responsible for the sites' disappearance."

    Wow, it's LIKE an article. It's just missing any news.

    "No one knows" -- Uh, yeah someone knows. The Washington post doesn't know.

    Ergo "The Washington Post" == "No one"

    It also looks like they've hired high school editors. "The sites' disappearance" is incorrect. Sites don't own anything. Proper phrasing: "The disappearance of the sites". Of course that's not correct in Internet parlance. A real Editor would write "The inability to reach the content of the sites..."

    The Washington Post is to a real newspaper like real people who don't give bailouts are to our elected "representatives".

    Ehud

    Awesome dude. I love how you threw out that "let's be reasonable and consider all the facts" bullshit just to dupe people into reading how much you'd like to nuke the middle east. Hook, line, sinker - nice job!

    Mod this funny? Really? The Obama being a terrorist because his name sounds like Osama joke wasn't funny the first time I heard it and sure as heck isn't funny now that I've heard it a million times.

    So if I post a conspiracy theory that links Bin Laden to Bush's successful election, i will get a score of informative? Or do i need to do something crazier like talk about how we ourselves blew up the twin towers?

    I know. along with that are the people who are crazy enough to think that the anthrax attacks came from our own government lab!
